I believe a lot of the videos posted are staged so they try and look their best.
Shelley posted this video and half way through she puts on an apron.

She put a whole ladle full of the water in the sauce with the pasta. She said she likes salt
I add salt to the water once it becomes a rolling boil. They say adding it ahead of time may pit the pot.
Regardless of what I'm eating I need to have a slat shaker handy. It doesn't affect my BP even at my age and when I have blood tests my sodium count is always low.
Yes, Tony was quite tidy in the kitchen. I imagine that was a habit of many years.
With so many chefs of both sexes having long hair, I think it's important for them to tie it up. I know from my own time spent in the kitchen that if you don't do something, it'll get in your food. And nobody likes that.
I've noticed lately that on shows like Chopped, contestants often leave their hair down, probably because they want to look their best on TV. That's a bad ides.
All fine, as long as everyone remains attentive to the principles and practice of food safety and sanitation. I was always an overbearing stickler for that. But I never ran any large commercial kitchen primarily for the staff, but for the customers. Even the addiction-compromised chef Anthony Bourdain would agree with that.
( One of his last venues: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brasserie_Les_Halles )
Oh yes, that, too. Nothing wrong with pierced ears--most women have them--but food workers go WAY beyond that.
And - dare I say - piercings?
These days, there's hardly a cook who doesn't have them. Lots of them, usually.
My tongue-in-cheek point exactly. And, yes, tattoos do seem to have found a sympathetic home among the professional cook class.....
I have the impression--from Food Network--that very few professionals have long nails, or color their short ones.
But I suppose the tats make up for that, and more.
Cooking with nails like that must be a "thing."
I typically will, at the very least, remove my polish before plunging into extensive food preparation duties like that.....
Mmmmm, my, my, if I wasn't the chef having a hand in these luscious creations, why couldn't I at least have been the food stylist?!
(now, where did I put my apron.....?)
She may become famous. She seems to want to, and she's personable.
She put a whole ladle full of the water in the sauce with the pasta. She said she likes salt 😅
Thanks for the links, I'll watch more on YouTube. Interesting website, especially the About, Resources, and Sauces pages. I want to buy the Lemon Temptress sauce. I'm not sure where to buy it, probably Amazon 🤔
I notice you can summit an application to work with her.
Maybe she'll become world famous like Giada? IDK, Giada is special 🥰
More recipes from the Pasta Queen:

Yes, it did seem like a lot of salt, but I don't think she put any in the sauce.
She's Roman, and has a strong Roman accent. Which of course would be stronger if she were speaking Italian. You can see a lot more of her recipes here:

And there's much more about her here:

Indeed - and the customary "ingredient grazing" can certainly slow things down a bit, as well.....
During the week I use recipes that we can cook in under 30 minutes including prep time. I save the more complicated recipes for weekends and they probably take more time than advertised.
The dried parsley and pepper would be fine in a pinch. The cheese might be an Italian sin, but not an American one, I would think. Janice should weigh in.....
I bet I could substitute crushed red pepper flakes
Italians normally use that. As for the cheese, it's not traditional. But it wouldn't be as bad as using it on seafood.
Wow, that was a lot of extra salt in the pasta water! I didn't notice when/if she added the extra parsley that wasn't cooked. The recipe looks delicious and simple, and she is fun to watch and listen to. Great accent 😋
I bet I could substitute crushed red pepper flakes, which are always on hand. I don't always have fresh parsley, I doubt dried would be acceptable, but if so, it would definitely make the dish more available on days when the fresh stocks are low.
Would it be an Italian sin to add cheese? 😉
There's always spaghetti aglio olio peperoncino. Four ingredients. In most of Italy, you would not add cheese.
Condiments and sauces can work wonders when you find yourself attempting to rescue a "last minute" situation where there exists a need to whip up a complete meal when only a few staples are available in the kitchen. It's all about harmonizing flavors, textures, and colors so that less actually seems to turn into more.....
No separate fritters but 2 kinds. lol.
We always have a supply of tortellini's on hand for when we're too lazy to cook anything that takes time.
We also have frozen cubes of pesto to use in spaghetti.
A prep cook can make or break a chef. Last thing a chef needs is to wait for an ingredient to finish off a meal. I find reading a recipe a couple of times before I cook it I can lay out all the ingredients before I start, reducing prep time with an assist from my wife or son.
Corn and apple in the same fritter... that sounds unusual. I love apple fritters! I'd try it!
My Aunt used to make corn and apple fritters then we'd dip them in maple syrup.
Yes, I've heard about Pine Mouth Syndrome in the past few years. Apparently it's really nasty. I've never had it, but why take chances?
Good golly....there's something for everybody these days, isn't there?!
We use Prime for Whole Foods deliveries....primarily for canned/packaged staples and the like, because we've learned that WF staff can't be trusted to know how to pick out the best fruit or vegetables (esp. when calculating estimated ripening times to match up with menu scheduling), the freshest fish, or the choicest pieces of meat. They don't care, they'll just grab 'n go. An experienced cook's eye and nose are needed when shopping for just the very best foodstuffs (which we should all demand when we shop).
I do, though, feel a bit pampered by the speed of the deliveries; the accuracy has usually been noteworthy, as well.
How could what be? I adore tortellini as a quick, convenient meal. I'll frequently sauce up with a traditional basil/pine nut pesto, but I've also used pesto variations containing other nuts and/or herbs, as in the recipe you referenced.
From a recipe (I didn't know this about pine nuts):
For the nuts, I use walnuts instead of the more traditional pine nuts for a few reasons. First, I always seem to have walnuts in the house (pine nuts can be very pricey). Second, in recent years an increasing number of people, including me, have fallen prey to a bizarre problem with pine nuts called Pine Mouth Syndrome, a bitter, metallic taste in the mouth that develops a day or two after eating pine nuts. It can last for weeks and make eating or drinking anything very unpleasant. (You can use pecans or almonds, too.)
https://www.onceuponachef.com/sauces/pesto-sauce.html
LOL, yes, that's right! As a former restaurant chef, I could tell you all about "prep time!"
Ditto on the real maple syrup (and one of these days I'm going to get around to trying birch syrup).
The recipe is a take on cornmeal pancakes or waffles, which have been making the rounds among various high-end restaurant breakfast menus around the country. Here is an example: https://www.kqed.org/bayareabites/123732/celebrity-chefs-recipes-brown-sugar-kitchens-acclaimed-cornmeal-waffles
(Any waffle recipe that calls for yeast has my vote! Love that yeasty goodness....)
As for the photo you referenced: I've thought that a really cool job would be that of food stylist.
You're in good company. Andrew Zimmern, who's willing to eat practically anything, HATES walnuts. Says they make him gag.
Interesting. The 2nd link looks viable for home small batch use. This one would be too big and too expensive, but it looks legit.

This isn't exactly that, but I don't see why it wouldn't work. Pretty small, though:

It might be good. I'm 50/50 on walnuts. They usually taste rancid to me, even when just purchased. I usually substitute pecans, which taste a bit sweet in comparison, but always delicious.
Oh the humanity! A tourist town that hates the tourists? Maybe that's common.
At the bottom of the page, this caught my eye. I've seen the freeze plate on cooking shows. It could be interesting. I wouldn't buy it on Indiegogo, but maybe when it's on Amazon?
https://www.foodandwine.com/news/ice-plate-diy-ice-cream-roll-maker
Yes, I'm not an enthusiast of the second recipe. Too many different ingredients, perhaps.
Now this is horrifying:

Those recipes look delicious. I think corn fritters beat corn pancakes. The first and third pictures look very appetizing, but the 2nd pic might have too much corn to brown properly? IDK, but if I try one this summer it would be the 1st recipe:
The Best Corn Fritters Recipe
https://littlesunnykitchen.com/corn-fritters/
I like how they serve it with fresh cucumber and either sour cream or yogurt sauce. I'd choose greek yogurt, or maybe creme fraiche. Or maybe the avocado crema from the 2nd recipe 🤔
How would this be? Something to with my walnuts.
Cheese Tortellini with Walnut Pesto
https://www.foodandwine.com/recipes/cheese-tortellini-walnut-pesto?hid=fad5c526ddce274b179d9d966a74cb9d69b23514&did=12764022-20240502&utm_campaign=faw-the-dish_newsletter&utm_source=faw&utm_medium=email&utm_content=050224&utm_term=recipe-of-the-day&lctg=fad5c526ddce274b179d9d966a74cb9d69b23514&lr_input=aefeb373510efb98d7a8451c2d58a49ba275040c17bf3c0b66e2567b82c1507d
Corn is cheap and abundant during the summer, and for the rest of the year, we have frozen. Corn pancakes--or fritters--were popular when I was a kid, too. And probably we should all make 'em once in a while.
The difference--to the extent that there is one--seems to be that the fritters are savory, though the corn is naturally sweet.

Zucchini-and-Corn Fritters With Herb Sour Cream Recipe
https://www.seriouseats.com/zucchini-corn-fritters-herb-sour-cream-recipe
Don't you love all these recipes that say "Prep time 10 minutes"? It takes that long the get the stuff out of the fridge.
My dad used to ask my mom to make corn pancakes about once a year. They were OK. I'm guessing that corn pancakes were more common in their generation, in the midwest. We used canned corn, but they would have been better with fresh or frozen, like everything.
I made them once for nostalgia about 25 years ago. I'd rather have plain, blueberry, or pecan pancakes. But I rarely eat pancakes of any kind. What really matters is using real maple syrup.
The picture in the article does make them look appealing 🥞

LOL, take the toy away after a couple of days, wait for a bit then give it back. She'll think she got a new toy, LOL I tied a long string of yarn on Peanut's pink elephant yesterday and thew it, she was like a cat going after it. She's still very young, she'll be 2 on 9/11
