Wow - I wish I could have eaten the entire panful myself! Followed the recipe as written; didn't have fresh parsley so dried tasted surprisingly great. My favorite ingredient was the red pepper flakes - they give just a hint of heat and really add a nice zing to the pasta. LOVE this one - Ina is remarkable! Wait til my teenager finds it in the morning!!

Probably the best recipe for this dish I've tried. This is one of the few Italian dishes that I've made where the sauce actually seems to marry well with the cooked pasta without making a soupy sauce. I guess-timated on the cheese but probably could have gone a little heavier. Like adding any fresh herb(s, the [fresh] parsley makes this dish shine. I will make it again and probably experiment a little, maybe add some freshly squeezed lemon to finish; alternatively, I think that cilantro would be a nice substitution for parsley. Maybe fresh basil as a change too.

Fantastic! Easy and satisfying. I personally think this serves more than 4 people, especially when paired with other things (chicken or shrimp, fresh green salad, and therefore a bit easier on the waistline for a nice Saturday night dinner. :. Make sure to let the pasta really absorb the sauce and it is magical. Will definitely make again.

OMG - finally, the perfect recipe for Aglio e Olio! I've been searching for the perfect recipe for this after having it at my favorite Italian restaurant (I no longer live in that state. My husband and I LOVED this and will be making it often. Simple, tasty, healthy cuisine. Thank you Ina, you never cease to amaze!

My Italian husband's sisters have been making a variation of this dish for decades. I always had a, meh, oily pasta, so what, attitude. He made it with this recipe tonight and I was floored. So much better! Molto buona Ina!

Loved this simple recipe using just a few fresh ingredients. I placed a small amount of prosciutto on top to serve,

This was one of my father's favorite spaghetti dishes my mom would make. She added CRUSHED RED PEPPER flakes for a bright KICK!!

Absolutely divine! I added some fresh shrimp and lemon zest about 2 minutes before adding the pasta, parsley and cheese. This will be my new "go to" when I need a quick, fresh and healthy meal.
