I was told by some Italians that the government restricts what kind of breakfast cereal you can buy.
They asked me to smuggle in a box of Lucky Charms for them. Why is Italian food so fucked up?

South Italy has no culture beyond food and organized crime.

You think that's bad, the city of Rome has a meal calendar called the piatti canonici. Every fucking human being in Rome HAS to eat pasta with chickpeas on Tuesdays and Fridays.

italians are autists

italians kiss their mothers on the lips

countries with high diversity like Italy tends to be autistic about small detail such as food.
its almost like identity for them, you shouldn't mess with it

lewd

That is just foreplay.
The best part is what happens next.

AY, AY, OH, OH

What you don't realize because you don't speak italian is we have this kind of discussions all the time even among italians themselves.
If you want to troll a group of italians just talk about any recipe, not just pasta.
You will see people bickering for hours about what should be the right ingredients or the right way to do it.
Food and football are our national obsessions, a bit like british with the weather, or americans with guns.

I fucking love Italians

Hang on, you're not supposed to put crème fraîche in carbonaras ?

>put lardons in frypan, add pepper and garlic
>cook the pasta
>mix the crème fraîche with the hot lardons, that makes the sauce
>put pasta on your plate, add the sauce, make a hole, add the york

What's so wrong about adding crème fraîche? Otherwise it's dry as fuck.
Can an italianon remove his faggy glasses, put a normal shirt and tell me what's so wrong?

cause there is nothing more

Its all they have.

>cream in carbonara
This is understandable. Cream in Carbonara is a horrible amerimutt meme

>listening to some brown manlet lecturing you about the way you're supposed to cook
Lmao
I always eat meat with my pasta.

>I always eat meat with my pasta.
Yeah, that's what you pair with pasta. Pasta is good and all, but no pasta-based dish is proteinless.

Germany is to my knowledge the only European country where Lucky Charms cereal is sold for some reason.

Isn't she the hottest thing in the world

>cook the pasta
>put a bit of olive oil in the frypan
>heat it up
>put cut guanciale in it to fry and add pepper
>grate some pecorino and grana in a bowl
>add 4-5 egg yolks to the grated cheese
>get some pasta cooking water pour in the bowl while mixing it
>drain the pasta remember to save some cooking water!
>put the pasta in the frypan without the fire ofc
>empty slowly the content of the bowl while mixing if too dry add cooking water

italians to crucify me if it's slightly different :(

Shouldn't you beat the the yolk with some cheese and pour it at the end for the sounce thing? No cream whatsoever ...

Cor.

I'll try that, that sounds nice.
Pecorino and grana sounds a bit hard to find but I'll find a way. Parmigiano is the easier to find but it's not that great after all.
I used to remove all the cooking water but saving some for the sauce is actually a nice thing to do.

i fry lardons (I like pancetta so I usually use it instead of guanciale as the recipe says) then in a pot i mix eggs (1,5 per person, the 0.5 is the yolk), pepper, a pinch of nutmeg and parmigiano (i don't like pecorino). in a different pot i boil water and i add salt , when the water is boiling i put pasta (usually a short one). after 9-10 minutes i take the pasta and i put it in the other pot with eggs etc, i mix until i get a cream, if the pasta is too cold i put the pot on the fire to warm a little and in the meantime i keep mixing. you create the cream by warming the eggs but not let Cook to much to be an omelette. this is how i make my carbonara

>Lucky Charms
Never seen a box irl in my life

Yeah it's supposed to be prepared with pecorino only but the mix works too, only the grana not so great I agree.

yeah the water + cheese makes it creamy

Some people here put the entire eggs. I tried it once but it agglutinates too much so it ended up tasting like those disgusting pepperoni&cheese burgers adore so much but is actually disgusting.

Do you use the whites or do you throw it in the sink / save it?
Only things I know how to do with the whites are île flottante/Floating island/Isola galleggiante and meringue/spumiglia but I usually fuck up the cooking of the meringue.

Carbs are behind a lot of mental and physical issues

all carbs are bastards

usually the pasta should look yellow /orange and grey if you like black pepper and the white I throw it in the sink if is not that much or I keep it for other things.

Why do anglos pretend to be italian?

I don't but that seriously looks disgusting

I’ve been dating an Italian girl for two years. I gained like 15kg already(and I was already a chubby guy), even with starting exercising again once I noticed I was gaining weight.

Please tell your women to stop cooking so well and so much, and your older women to stop encouraging me to eat more. I have Vietnam war-like flashbacks of my trip to meet her family last summer, her grandma telling me to eat more again and again and again haunts my dreams.

Because they're often just trash whom attempt to be elitist snots by talking down to people over things that don't matter.

We're the slimmest in europe m8, you just need to have more sex

They were readily available last time I visited Germany. Like other General Mills cereals, they're made by Nestle for the European market.

Good food matters though

wahey :^)

>I’ve been dating an Italian girl for two years.
What? You go on a date once and either you like each other and get something going, or you don't and never see each other again. But you don't go on several dates, do you now? What's the purpose of finding out if you like each other or not for two years of fucking time?

And mind you, being in a relationship is NOT dating.

Yum! Put some banana and peanuts on aswell, and you're golden
