Look up pasta puttanesca

Very hard to mess up so just pick one of the first few that come up on Google.

Fun fact: The name comes from "puttana" which means prostitute. This dish was made by prostitutes because it was quick to make before the next client came.

What does he like to eat? You could go big and heavy pasta, or you could walk on the lighter side with a nice bruschetta. If you wanted to do an Italian appetizer too I'd highly recommend doing a little skewers with a kalmata olive, cherry tomato, bocchini wrapped in a basil leaf with a balsamic vinegar drizzle on top.

Italian reporting in, decent at cooking. You could do a fancy risotto, or pasta with garlic oil parsley and spicy pepper, easy fast and good for turning each other on. Reply if interested will explain you

Make a nice pan roasted loin of veal in a brandy and mushroom sauce with a nice salad to start and served with penne topped with pine nuts.

then blow him.

Bleach, it's what's for dinner.

>>8585409
no they're usually raw, here's an example: http://allrecipes.com/recipe/104806/tomato-and-mozzarella-bites/

You can fiddle with it like adding an olive but it's up to you. It's super easy and small scale so if you try something and it doesn't work then just don't make the rest of the skewers like that.

Other things you can try if you want:
>add prosciutto or other cured meat
>add pickled vegetables like peppers
>add an onion
>add sundries tomato
>sprinkle some fresh parm on
>roast the tomato
>try different balsamic reductions

Of course you don't want to do all those things or it'll be an over-complex mess but you can tailor it to your/your bf's tastes.

If you aren't a millennial, you're too old or too young to be using 4chan. The oldest millennials are in their 30s.

[Anonymous No.8585787]

make a ragu/lazy bolognese. Ground beef on medium heat in a pan until brown then simmer on low in white wine, herbs, garlic, onion, and celery. Stew a carrot in your red sauce for 30 minutes to an hour on low to medium heat. Pour over pasta that can hold ground beef (corkscrew or ribbon shape).

GenX here, 4chan and reddit have taught me a lot about millennials and knowing what I know, I have zero sympathy for their bitching and moaning about muh jerrrbs. Completely useless, entitled, and lacking any capacity for self-improvement

Last week someone came here asking for cooking advice and railed at me for mentioning a website/book that has recipes including such unreasonable techniques as braising, or such exotic ingredients as cornish game hen

I wish God would invent a new plague like AIDS but for the youth of today

Get rid of them, and start over

Get dried porcini, prosciutto, heavy cream, gorgonzola cheese, and gnocchi.

Rehydrate porcini. Heat a cup of cream until just bubbling. Add 4 oz of gorgonzola. Melt in. Add porcini (and a splash of the leftover juice) and prosciutto. Boil gnocchi. Drain and toss in sauce. Serve with crusty bread.

Want to know how I know you're a cunt? Becaue it's his birthday and rather than thinking about what is better for him, you insist on making it about yourself. It's not your birthday you insufferable cunt, blow him and take him to a place were people know what they're doing. The fact that you don't even know what to make shows that you lack intelligence, imagination and cooking skills.
Blow him and take him to a nice/favourite restaurant you selfish whore.

You should keep it simple and use authentic italian ingredients. Cost a bit but it will lift the dish way up.

Try to make spaghetti carbonara and a side salade with good italian olive oil and balsemic vinegar. And a good ripasso wine

Go to a italian grocery shop to get the ingredients.

I think its pretty fun to hang out with you millennials. Here's why:
You're stupid and naive, that amuses me.
I can easily dominate you with intellect and wisdom.
The weak arguments you make are laughable because you actually believe it, and you are oh-so-easy to troll.
And your girls are still young and hot.
As a generation, you're awful and pathetic, and I hate your guts. But for my amusement, this is a gold mine. Its like being in high school again, which after a long time is actually fun.

>Christ, how depressing is it to still be using 4chan into your late 40s?
Bully yourself kid. There are plenty of Gen X'ers on 4chan, IRC and any other dawn of the modern internet platforms in existence, especially on /trv and /ck, which is very much unlike the rest of this website (which I guess is your home).
moot is a Gen X's, arguably, and by most definitions, are you going to mock him too? Just how young and insecure, and lacking self-esteem, are you that you pick on randoms in a cooking forum?

OP, for a date or dinner party, or really any entertaining, the last minute quick fix pasta idea is less than ideal. It is better to prep something more complicated ahead of time, get it going, and be rested, fresh and energetic for the romance. For something special, I'd go with an old fashioned baked lasagna, stuffed shells,canneloni, homemade ravioli, kind of idea. A long simmered (ie made the night before) sauce like an old fashioned ragu. A nice tossed salad or assembled antipasti from a deli. Braising is easy. I like to get two veal or pork shank knuckles, or short ribs, and make the delicious Osso Bucco citrus gremolata topping for it, which is unusual enough to make each bite sing for most people who don't have it often.
You could also get some dough made and make homemade garlic knots dripping in garlic and oil, and let it be the highlight, or simply highlight your dessert. Lots of fun italian desserts to play with!
