you're all right and wrong. some areas use garlic more than others; some recipies call for more garlic than others; some poeple's tastes are more disposed to more garlic.
matteo is from the northwest - and they don't use nearly as much garlic as they do in the south. the cooking is a world away.
also, her puton pasta is the same as his pasta alla puttanesca, more or less - her recipe is a very bastardized version, but after 150 years in a foreign country and how tates change, people change the recipes. also, pasta puton is not correct in terms of how it is said - it really is pasta alla puttanesca - but dialects + time = pasta puton.
if you want to get technical, it is pasta putan - the a is pronounced like an o here.
he's just tired of people bastardizing italian language culture and cooking - but he needs to chill.
well, i am certainly no authority on italian food so i don't really care. i just think it is really funny that this random dude came and started bitching about my friend's family recipes. they never said "OH, IN ITALY EVERYONE EATS THIS WAY!" they just said, "here's my italian grandmother's recipe, and this is what she called it." i thought puttanesca had lots of other stuff in it anyway, like capers and olives?
