- Hey, y'all, I'm Jamie Deen
0:02
and I'm making pasta.
0:04
Welcome into today's show, y'all.
0:05
We're making one of my wife's favorite dishes,
0:09
from my book, from many years ago.
0:11
This is a quick lemon and basil Linguini.
0:15
It is so good.
0:17
My mom was telling me earlier,
0:18
that the older she gets the more she loves pasta
0:20
and the older I get, the less I like pasta.
0:24
But I love this pasta and I'm gonna show you why.
0:27
Take a look down here.
0:30
Lemon juice, lemon zest, basil, cream, olive, garlic.
0:36
This is the easiest recipe
0:38
that you can make a fresh pasta
0:41
at your house for your family.
0:43
If you wanna grill a chicken breast ahead of time,
0:45
slice it, serve it on top of here,
0:46
you got a wonderful meal in no time.
0:49
I boiled our pasta off.
0:52
I used a little bit of salt in the water.
0:54
And anytime you make pasta, y'all,
0:56
make it a habit to reserve a little bit of your pasta water.
1:00
You're gonna need to add a little bit of liquid
1:02
to loosen this sauce up.
1:05
And why in the world would you wanna use tap water,
1:07
when you can use water from your pot?
1:10
The starch that cooks out of the pasta,
1:12
lends itself to this water to help make a more creamy sauce.
1:16
So always take time
1:18
and reserve about a cup of your pasta water,
1:20
before you drain it.
1:21
Now we're gonna stay right here in the same pot.
1:24
I've been told to give you good measurements.
1:26
So I'm gonna check my handy dandy cheat sheet
1:29
since I've kept close since middle school.
1:32
(Mom laughing)
1:33
So in this pot, now that I've got the pasta cooked,
1:37
we're gonna add our oil.
1:38
And in here is,
1:42
If somebody would hold this about 14 feet
1:45
from where I'm standing.
1:46
- [Mom] You want me to hold it?
1:47
- It's a quarter of a cup of olive oil.
1:53
- Did you tell them Jamie,
1:54
that you use the refrigerated pasta?
1:58
- I did not. - To me that's so good.
2:00
- Yeah. Much better than a box and dry.
2:02
- And dried yeah.
2:04
- The only thing is once you buy that,
2:05
you're gonna wanna use it.
2:06
You don't want it to sit
2:07
in the refrigerator for a long time.
2:08
- [Mom] Yeah. Yeah.
2:09
And the lemon trees, lemons are hanging all over.
2:15
And to be able to use that amount of lemon
2:17
is gonna give it such a wonderful--
2:19
- Fresh lemon till too, delicious.
2:20
- [Mom] Mmh.
2:21
- So we've got our oil in here and I'm heating this up.
2:25
I'm using the same pot
2:26
that we were in because
2:27
just like our pasta water retains a lot of that flavor,
2:30
this whole pot right now is coated with pasta water
2:33
and the starch and all those things inside of it.
2:36
I'm gonna add two cloves of garlic.
2:43
Two cloves of sliced garlic.
2:46
I am not a measuring person, which is funny,
2:48
because my brother and I have written four or five cookbooks
2:51
and I've written this book by myself.
2:52
And when I'm at the house cooking,
2:55
I don't hardly ever measure anything.
2:57
I just get a kind of a feel for it.
2:59
But when I'm working with y'all, I wanna supply
3:02
and of course Eddy or Teresa will post this recipe.
3:05
This is really one that I want y'all to use.
3:06
It's delicious.
3:08
So it took that quick and my garlic is already browning.
3:12
So I'm gonna turn this down into this pot.
3:18
I'm going to add our cream.
3:20
Let me make sure I'm doing this right now.
3:22
I'm gonna stir in the cream, the lemon juice
3:24
and then I'll season it just a little bit.
3:26
So we have a quarter of a cup of heavy cream
3:30
and about a quarter of a cup of fresh lemon juice.
3:33
So I'm gonna stir this right in.
3:34
(cream and lemon juice sizzling)
3:35
Whoo my pan is hot.
3:38
It smells good.
3:40
- [Man] Yeah man.
3:41
Cream and lemon and the garlic.
3:46
I have an excuse.
3:47
This is not my house.
3:48
And I don't cook on electric ranges,
3:50
but boy, how did that get hot quick?
3:54
- I need to turn this down even more.
3:56
- [Mom] It is burning garlic, Jamie.
3:58
- Browned it perfectly.
4:00
- [Mom] Good.
4:01
- Well, I wish y'all could smell that
4:02
with a fresh lemon in it.
4:04
Check that part out.
4:05
Okay, and what we're gonna do next.
4:07
We're gonna cook that for just a second.
4:11
I'm gonna add a little pinch of pepper
4:15
and a little pinch of salt.
4:18
And we're gonna simmer this down
4:19
for just a couple of minutes.
4:29
And this y'all, is our sauce.
4:32
Super simple.
4:34
Now to this, I'm gonna add our fresh basil
4:40
and our Parmesan and our lemons zest.
4:47
Lemon zest is where the flavors at y'all.
4:52
And I've got a half a cup fresh grated Parmesan
4:57
that we're gonna add here.
4:59
So this is really gonna thicken up nicely.
5:02
Oh that smells so good.
5:05
Now this comes together pretty quick.
5:08
See how tight this is,
5:11
this is where our pasta water is gonna come in.
5:14
So important.
5:15
Now think about the flavors we got in here.
5:18
The garlic, the basin, the Parmesan, the fresh lemon juice
5:24
and the fresh lemon zest.
5:26
Man, that is a bright dish.
5:29
Okay, in it, now what we're gonna do,
5:33
is I'm gonna get some tongs.
5:35
Where my tongs, tongs, tongs, tongs.
5:40
And I want to toss this pasta in here with my tongs.
5:48
And I'm gonna get my pasta water of course.
5:51
Cause I know I'm gonna have to thin this out some.
5:54
So let's go with about a half a cup of my pasta water.
5:59
(tongs scratching the pan)
6:11
Really gonna have to work this over
6:14
to get everything married and incorporated together.
6:18
Still a little thick.
6:20
So I'm gonna use the rest of our cup of pasta water.
6:24
Thin this out.
6:30
Who said making sauce is hard?
6:35
- [Mom] I wanna see that too.
6:36
Whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo.
6:41
Wouldn't some shrimp be good in that.
6:43
- Oh yeah, shrimp would be really good at here.
6:46
- [Mom] Or chicken.
6:47
- Let's go over here to our board.
6:49
We've cooked enough.
6:54
Give me a little bit more room to work here.
6:56
(tongs scratching pot)
6:57
- Mmh.
7:01
Now when you make that at home, Jamie,
7:02
will you put chicken or anything in it?
7:05
Or do the boys just--
7:08
- The boys love pasta plain
7:09
but I always do chicken for Brooke and I.
7:14
- I know that Jack likes.
7:19
Mmh.
7:25
Mmh.
7:26
- I know I saved a little bit of the basil.
7:28
Clean my plate up.
7:32
I'll put our fresh basil leaf right here.
7:35
- [Mom] Mmh. Mmh. - I have a feeling that
7:37
that plate's gonna disappear pretty quickly.
7:39
(Mom laughing)
7:40
We'll put this one here.
7:42
I've got a little bit of Parmesan in the fridge.
7:44
Lemme grab some.
7:47
- Well I'm about to have a taste.
7:52
- Do a little fresh Parmesan here.
7:53
Lemme finish the play please.
7:55
You're worse than worse than my kids.
7:58
(Mom laughing)
7:59
And then I like a little bit of fresh ground pepper
8:02
to finish it off.
8:02
- Aha, I do too. Mmh. - So this is simple and easy.
8:08
That'd be 1499 please.
8:09
(all laughing)
8:13
- [Lady] I'm paying. Hey, thanks for tuning in today y'all,
8:15
that is a very simple, easy Linguini.
8:18
I'm happy to cook it for you today.
8:20
And when you eat it,
8:21
you're gonna be happier even more still.
8:23
- Well here is the test y'all.
8:27
(Mom giggles)
8:29
Here is the test.
8:30
- [Jamie] There's the true test.
8:31
- The taste test.
8:32
- Mama says.
8:39
(Mom bangs spoons on the counter top)
8:43
Nobody's gonna believe you 'cause you're my mama.
8:46
(Mom giggles)
8:48
- That is so good.
8:48
- But Eddy's about his and Teresa's about to eat his.
8:52
(Mom laughing)
8:53
- Hers.
8:54
That is so y'all know.
8:56
I'm just trying to stand up here and think--
9:00
- [Lady] Y'all.
9:00
- Why have you not made me this before?
9:03
- Argh.
9:04
- Cause Theresa didn't pick out the recipe.
9:06
(Mom giggles) - Not enough days in the week.
9:08
Thanks for tuning in y'all.
9:10
Love and best dishes. Is that what we're it calling it now?
9:12
- That's what I call it.
9:15
That's what I said for thirty years.
9:16
- Hey, how about this,
9:17
y'all do good things and love one another. Okay?
9:19
We'll see you next time. - Okay, I liked that one too.
9:22
Bye-bye.
9:23
Love y'all.
