OK, yes, it's cooked by an "award-winning chef" on the show — but in real life, it couldn't be easier to make.
I Couldn’t Stop Thinking About The Famous Spaghetti From “The Bear,” So I Made It At Home (And Have Been Eating It Ever Since)
If you, like me, recently binged The Bear on Hulu so damn fast your head is still spinning, I’m willing to bet you’re one of these three things: exhausted (Episode 7, am I right?!), fulfilled as all hell, or hungry. For me, it’s definitely that last one — or honestly, a bit of all three — and I can’t imagine I’m alone.
I thought to myself, If that pasta is delicious enough to make someone see dead people, it’s gotta be next-level. So, yep, I decided to recreate it at home…and I’m very, very glad I did. Now that I’ve tried it, I can confidently say it’s my new go-to marinara sauce.
To come up with a recipe that was more than just three ingredients [lovingly] scribbled on an index card, I basically watched the scene in which he makes it a zillion-and-five times. While a few elements are filmed, most of the spaghetti-making actually happens off camera — so I donned my recipe developer hat to fill in the many, many blanks.
Here’s what I came up with. First, the ingredients.
The canned San Marzano tomatoes themselves are also pretty darn ~key~ to The Bear‘s plot — again, IYKYK — but if you can’t find ’em or don’t want to splurge on the imported stuff, use whatever canned tomatoes you can find. The results will be just as delicious.
STEP #1: Make your basil- and garlic-infused oil.
You’ll want your basil and garlic oil to look like this before you take it off the heat.
STEP #2: Brown your butter and sear the onion.
(How golden brown? This golden brown.)
STEP #3: Start your tomato sauce.
STEP #4: Purée the basil oil.
In terms of texture, you’ll want the mixture to look something like this once it’s processed.
STEP #5: Last step, y’all! Combine the basil oil mixture with the sauce for the final 10 minutes of cook time.
To serve, toss 1 pound of al dente spaghetti into the pot and thoroughly coat with the sauce. As with most pasta dishes, I’d highly recommend reserving a 1/2 cup of pasta water for the sauce — it helps distribute the sauce more evenly, and the starch ultimately makes the sauce thicker.
A generous sprinkling of Parmesan cheese and a few spare leaves of basil reaaaally take things up a notch, IMO, but don’t stress if you don’t have ’em.
As for the verdict…
It was, um…
It’s good. REALLY, really good. Like, “new favorite pasta” good. I now fully understand the beaming smiles of everyone in Carmy’s kitchen as they devoured that dish…because that was very much me as I took my first bite.
