Here you will find all the ingredients of the dish prepared by the famous chef: the detailed list and video of the recipe
“Guys, how good is spaghetti with mussels?” This is how the post by Bruno Barbieri su Twitter (or X, call it what you want) yesterday, December 23rd. Nothing strange so far, but that's exactly what happened next to Aver sparked controversy. The reason? Let's go one by one. The post continues: “With a sprinkle of breadcrumbs and a glass of white wine, they are perfect for parties! Here is the full video of the recipe,” then the link to the video. “Spaghetti with mussels is a dish you should never miss. I also like small seashells, but today we're making the real ones. We will prepare them exclusively in white extra virgin olive oil and prepare them at the end I always put a piece of butter in it. I know the purists say “No, but…” but I don’t care,” are the opening words of the video. Qthe ones that caused an uproar on social media. At some point Barbieri actually comes to add the butter. But first the other steps, the more “traditional” ones. Clean the mussels, fry the garlic and then add it to the pan, add the white wine and in the meantime add the pasta. “The mussels are opening, in the meantime I'll get some bread. Once opened, you must immediately remove the lid to stop cooking. I filter the sauce, put the mussels in and add some parmesan. How wonderful, let’s look at the spaghetti as it is.”
Therefore the advice: “You always have to be very careful, check whether the mussel water is too salty and add a little water if necessary.” Then I take some parsley and cut it the way grandma used to do it. Finally he puts the spaghetti in the pan, cook for a few more minutes, add oil and Here’s the butter: “You definitely need to cream itor, Because when it starts to cool down a little, it creates a nice cream…” assures the chef. Serve and taste at the end: “Belli Creami” and some flavored bread on top. “Mh, very, very interesting. “Perfectly cooked and just right mussels with cream underneath,” he concludes. The ingredients: 500 g of mussels, 160 g of spaghetti, 100 g of parmesan, 50 g of breadcrumbs to taste, 100 ml of white wine, 1 clove of garlic, 1 piece of butter, 1 sprig of parsley, dried oregano to taste, extra virgin olive oil to taste, salt to taste
Let's now come to the comments under the video: “But did it seem bad to us to refine the spaghetti with risotto instead of creaming the dish with butter?” But I'm open-minded and everyone puts what they want on their plate “The butter kills the delicate taste of the mussels.”, writes a user on Elon Musk's social network. Other opinions: “Agnolotto is made from breadcrumbs and butter in the broth“, “Yes, at this point you can add pistachios”, “Uhmmm, I prefer without butter for myself”, “If they bring them to me like that in a restaurant, I’ll send them back“. Someone else, on the other hand, appreciates: “Top chef!”, “I like the muddica atturrata, a Sicilian touch,” “The real mussels are good.” In short, a lot of negative comments but there are some who like it. The question therefore remains open.
