I like Italian foods but charging 20 for meatless noodles is a loving con Also lol at being an Italian chef. There's a reason that even deranged Italian women can cook that kind of food.

Moridin920 posted:protip there's very little that's actually 'difficult' to cook. it's just 50% paying attention to detail and patience and 50% the freshest best ingredients you can find. And yet every cook is extremely proud of the work they do, unless they're Italian, in which case proud is not a strong enough word as they feel they regularly do the labors of Hercules in boiling noodles and cooking onions, peppers and tomatoes in a pan.

Some day I will meet a cook that says "I've worked in restaurants for years but I feel there's a lot of food I can't do justice to and a lot of people who do what I do better than I do it" instead "I'M A BADASS BITCH ON THE LINE, THE WHISTLE GOES WOOO WOOOOOOO"

Moridin920 posted:that's because it's a great feeling producing an excellent dish from some raw ingredients and then having people enjoy it. it's also because yeah it takes some skill built up by repetition to really make something truly excellent and it's normal to be proud of that skill. So is there very little to it or is there actually something to be proud of, because right now what you're telling me is that it's normal to be proud over very little.

For the record I think cooking professionally is difficult and probably one of the least rewarding jobs financially for the work people do and that there is a lot of food that is very difficult to do well under real working conditions instead of for just four people and you have all day to get it done. But there's just nothing to Italian food. There are almost no twists or surprises. You just look at the ingredients and cook everything in the firstest and plainest way that comes into your mind. I used to get a bowl of noodles at a Chinese place where the noodles were pulled and cooked a la minute, where they were served in one of several very complex broths that took at least half a day to make, topped with a few balanced herbs, the meat that went in also carefully flavored and prepared, and it was $4.25. The Italian place not more than 15 minutes away would want 18.50 for Barilla boiled up while some incredibly disgusting aspiring rapist fried half an onion and some garlic about halfway right and then threw canned tomatoes in it with his fingers and mushed them up. I'm sure if I talked to him over the bullshit he was making through he would have had tears in his eyes been reduced to gutteral noises for a third of the conversation over the fine order of the universe and love of his mother that he felt he actually saw in that slop.

Italy: I'm a tour guide and I come from a long line of tour guides, everyone in my town is a tour guide, also everyone in all of the other towns. We are very proud of these things we don't care about that our ancestors copied from Greeks.
