We also love cacio de pepe and often cook with the Asian ingredients he put in there. Is this a joke recipe or something like when people tell you to put dish soap in your laundry machine or microwave your wet cell phone? I don't get it.
I made the Kenji noodles with 20 cloves of garlic a couple weeks ago and loved it. I will admit it is a TON of garlic. I walked to the store after a bit and came back home and man, walking in the house it hits you right in the face.
I didn't feel like buying fish and oyster sauce so just used equal parts soy and worcestershire.
Again, I loved it but I can easily see how someone wouldn't. 20 cloves, lol.
