A lot of people get weirdly aggressive about other people "eating food wrong".
Try saying "actually, sometimes as a treat, when just cooking for myself, I quite like eating pasta with just a little salt and a little butter, or maybe a little grated cheese on it" in front of a group of people...
"YOU SHOULD PUT SAUCE ON IT"
"WHY AREN'T YOU HAVING A SAUCE"
"YOU CAN GET PRE-MADE SAUCES QUITE CHEAP, IT DOESN’T COST MUCH MORE JUST TO ADD A SAUCE"
Butter and Parmesan on pasta is a great lighter pasta dish. (Though I prefer it on something like Rotini more than spaghetti)
That's just pasta bianca, a valid and well known Italian dish.
I did not know that. Thank you! It's good to have a response next time the Sauce Mafia descend upon me.
Had it! Love it!. You’d probably have to stab my hand from stealing some from you XD
If they're salted just right, I often start a pasta meal with a few forks of nothing but pasta!
