Garlic, Oil and Chili Spaghetti
How to better use ChinEAT Sichuan Pepper grains (red and green)? Try this Chinese recipe out!
Spaghetti aglio, olio and peperoncino is probably the most underestimated Italian recipe ever. Being the most beloved recipe by students (due to the fact that is probably easy, and cheap, to make), it is also one of those recipes that requires some skills. The key is finding the balance between the only three ingredients for the sauce (garlic, chilies, and oil), while creating a dish that is not too oily but not too dry, not too garlicky, not too spicy. It sounds like mission impossible, well, it is. But this time we are going to make this even more impossible by adding some extra aromas, Red Sichuan Peppers, ready for the challenge?
