Drunken Spaghetti

I made this on Sunday along with some meatballs and it was delicious. The wine adds a subtle flavor to the dish. Will definitely make it again sometime. Mangia!!!

I tried it - works great.

Looks like somebody unswallowed it after getting sick on too much wine.

sigh... to everyone complaining that there is no print button - Highlight the section of the article you want to print. Its easy, just left-click on the page, hold that button down, and drag your mouse down to the end of the section desired. Release the left mouse button. Now part of the article should be selected. 'Right-click' that highlighted section and in the options that open up you should see the word 'print'. If you need further help please find a neighborhood teenager to show you how.

does the recipe still work if i drink the wine, add spaghetti second??

Wow!! Nobody here has a sense of humor or adventure. Perhaps you all need to travel to Italy and experience the many amazing things that can be done with pasta....Plus maybe listen to what the man is telling you. I don't think Fabio is suggesting you dump an expensive bottle of wine in your pot....use some barely drinkable red you have left over from some previous debauchery, or some cheap table wine you buy at Trader Joe's . The only thing I might suggest here is toast the walnuts for some additional flavor. It also might help to try out the recipe before condemning it, you might just be surprised....This guy has so much love of life and spirit in him it puts most of us to shame. Go Fabio!

wow, bellisimo, i would like to see alot more of fabio

It's crazy to use an expensive wine. Use 2 buck Chuck from Trader Joe's it will be great. Instead of walnuts I would use pistachios which are more Italian.

Ariel if you drink the 2 quarts of wine first, back away from the stove; in fact, get out of the kitchen altogether!

I, for one, like to boil my Ramen Noodles in Mad Dog 20/20...then drop some american cheese on there...yum-o

Te amo Fabio! Mangiare!

you can buy some pretty cheap wine... were talking about $8-10 bucks. that is how much the ingrediants for good homemade sauce will run you

I like to use Castello di Gabbiano chianti classico riserva.

Sounds yummy! I especially like the added walnuts. Makes a nice mix of texture.

Love Fabios recipes...and he makes the segments fun and enjoyable to watch. Really a fan. This one *sounds* yummy but it looks....yuck. The appearance is really unappetiizing and I have to assume that if that is the best a pro food stylist can do wit this dish, then I have no chance of making it look appealing on the plate. I dont want to put something down in front of my family that they are scared to try because it looks so icky. Food should make you want to try it...sorry to say this really does not.

a bottle of opened red wine is worth splurging on to use as the liquid to boil pasta. Reserve some of the starchy liquid from the boiling process to use in your final sauce...AWESOME!!!!!

2 quarts of wine makes for very expensive spaghetti.

I love his personality! If I wasn't attached, I would let him get me drunk and take advantage of me. :)

Fabio, I finally find you. What time is dinner? happy Valentine's Day.
