    Italian food is for fags

    That's a fair perspective when Olive Garden is the only Italian food the greater Phoenix area has to offer.
    I laughed but Olive Garden is good. I ate at their sister establish, known as Red Lobster, tonight.
    Christ. It is dog food garbage.
    I’m not an elitist like you. I think it’s good and reliable.

    For generic shit it's fine and does the job. Soup salad and breadsticks is amazing when hungover
    ...or half-baked like @backthepack.

    carbonara ... delicious shit.

    any particular recipe you used?

    Pretty much just made it up on the fly:

    2 eggs and 4 extra egg yolks
    Freshly grated parmesan cheese, like a cup, probably more though. I add a ton of it at the end when I’m mixing everything.
    Freshly chopped garlic, as much as you can handle. I like a lot. Throw it in the pan at the last minute as the bacon finishes cooking. Don’t burn it.
    8 pieces of thick cut bacon, chopped into quarter inch pieces, don’t over cook. Don’t want super crispy bacon.
    Shit load of parsley finely chopped. This and the parmesan add a great herbal/earthy flavor profile.
    Red pepper flakes. More than you think you’ll need. The heat balances out the other flavor components. Goes great with the white wine too.
    White wine. Just use something cheap. I used a nice bottle, which is pretty wasteful for cooking. Adds great flavor though.
    Extra virgin olive oil to augment the bacon fat as needed (dump in all the bacon grease, don’t be a bitch). I only needed a touch.
    Salt and pepper to taste
    Linguine noodles

    You could sub/add lemon juice with the white wine for acidity. I just didn’t have any on hand. You’re gonna want the white wine to drink with this meal anyways.

    I must add that I save all my bacon grease/fat and pour it into a ramekin (little container) and keep it in fridge for stuff like cooking eggs or doing steak on my cast iron skillet ...

    Salmon is my favorite food. I like this pasta but it doesn’t compare to fresh seafood.

    I could survive happily for a good long while on salmon and red cherries.

    One summer my dad challenged my brother and I to fish and crab enough to provide dinner for the entire family all summer long. He bought a 50lbs bag of rice and we could use the spices for flavor. We’d dig up worms on the beach for bait, catch fish, use the guts for crab bait, and ate fresh fish and crab for an entire summer. Mostly cod and perch, but a few salmon here and there.

    In retrospect I wonder if my parents were having money problems at the time, but it was fun. And delicious. Cleaning all the fish and cracking all the crab was a fucking hassle though.
    I could live on surf perch and crab with a few ocean fresh salmon or steelhead thrown in for variety.

    Sounds like a tuff liberal logger family trying tomake ends meet

    That is way too much fucking cod
    Agree. But I actually got sick of the rice first.

    Your folks probably thought things were rough while you guys were thinking it was the time of your lives. Perspective.

    Yes. But it's peak salmon time for the next several weeks, so you gotta make hay while the sun is shining. I'm also a huge crab fan. Dungeness crabs - way better than any blue crab, IMO. You can keep 5 Dungies per person per day during the season, so I usually eat 2 whole crabs when I get home, then vacuum pack the others for later use. If you freeze crab, it's still pretty good, but I use it for fritters and crab dip of it's been frozen - only fresh crab for dipping in butter.

    I need about 4 or 5 fish to smoke, another couple to cut up and freeze, and then I'll keep one here and there to peel off for friends and other dumbasses that can't catch fish. Crab season is closed now - but razor clamming is coming up. That means combo salmon and razor clam trips for the next couple months.

    Add in Husky football, and you can see why fall rules all other seasons around here, IMO. Sunny weather, but not too hot. Crisp fall mornings catching salmon and watching the Dawgs. Fuck yeah!

    Didn't read most of this but Dungeness >> blue crab
