I sure hope you're cooking your pasta correctly flyover-kun. There's no way I could love a man who dumps cold sauce on finished pasta, puts the olive oil on before the sauce, and then tops it with sawdust cheese.
That would be so embarrassing.

if I'm lazy (and don't feel like doing an extra dish) I skip the serving dish and just go straight to the plate.

I just spent all day making Kenji's slow cooked bolognese. That's legitimately the best pasta sauce I've ever had. I'd recommend it.

Agreed. But pretty much every american is guaranteed commit exactly all of those fuck ups. Not to mention using premade sauce from a jar.

Awful.

[Anonymous No.11429683]

>>11429673
I like the onion to be chunky so I get more flavor when I bite into it. Same reason I put onions on my burgers like this, instead of cutting them up.

[Anonymous No.11429690]

>>11429683
I don't care.

[Anonymous No.11429701]

>>11429629
Because its probably canned sauce. Which I guess is lazy and shit, but even if you're not making it from scratch, you should still take the easy steps to actually do it properly.
>How to make pasta regardless of sauce used:
>Keep the sauce heated in a pan. You don't need a lot of sauce. Maybe 3 tablespoons per serving. Add water as necessary.
>Boil pasta. Do not add olive oil like a faggot.
>Remove pasta and put it into the pan with the sauce
>Toss in sauce to coat and work the sauce into the pasta, again adding water as necessary.
>While still heating, add olive oil or butter for proper consistency
>Keep adjusting until right. Take off heat to plate
>Add real parmesan called something else which I can't be assed to spell correctly and olive oil.

why would you need to add extra oil if you have sauce?

[Anonymous No.11429715]

good jarred sauce is so readily available and affordable in America it would almost be dumb not to use it

[Anonymous No.11429718]

By the way, the fact that canned sauce is, in fact, lazy was part of my point.

I mean, I agree the issue here is convenience, but its not like allowing sauce to cook chains you to the kitchen.
Its like using a crock-pot to cook tough beef.

What do you have against RADAR anon? This is cooking the herbs fully then incorporating them into unseasoned sauce base.

You should be mixing pasta with sauce in pan over heat for the final few minutes unless you have a really good reason to make an exception.

The thing you can't get over is the resulting sauce is going to be better than most store-bought abominations. Yes, if you adapted the recipe to perform the first and second cooking phases in a pan it would be better, but even the microwave path is still a huge step up from store-bought.

In fact, let's spruce up the recipe by doing a few things differently:

INGREDIENTS:
>All the same

INSTRUCTIONS:
1. In a sauce pan, heat the oil until shimmering and add the onion and shallot over low heat. Cook until the edges become translucent.
2. Add garlic and chile flakes and continue to cook until the onion is translucent and slightly browned.
3. Remove from heat, cool, and freeze for up to 3 months.
4. In a sauce pan, deposit frozen element and thaw on low heat. Add tomato sauce and diced tomatoes while heating.
5. Once the mixture reaches a bare simmer, continue to cook covered for ten to twenty minutes. Stir occasionally.
6. Add basil, parsley, then season with sugar, salt, and black pepper to taste.

Meh, I boil pasta in a pot with some salt, then eat it mixed with ketchup, with some meat. It tastes good (for me) and it feel good to handle, unlike oily pasta.
