Thanks to Caleb, I happened upon Binging with Babish, a channel on YouTube that I'll be visiting many times in the future (assuming I get the pronunciation down first). Today's dish was pasta aglio e olio, which made its theatrical appearance in the movie Chef (alas, I've never seen it). It's a light and simple dish, easy to make, and damn tasty. There are only 6 ingredients: olive oil, pepper, lemon juice, parsley, linguine, and garlic.

The end result.

Some things I learned over the course of making this:

• Shit, I really need to buy a better knife for chopping parsley. The recipe calls for finely chopped parsley, and my knife wasn't sharp (plus, it was serrated).
• I misread the recipe's instructions for olive oil: it says to heat it until it's shimmering, but I read that as bubbling and definitely overheated the oil. At some point, I decided to just add the sliced garlic anyways and proceeded to splatter hot oil over my arms and throughout the kitchen.

I need to improve my plating, but that's low priority.

Tomorrow, I buy a new kitchen knife.
