Aglio e Olio with Cured Egg Yolk
Aglio e Olio is amazing on it’s own but I’m taking it to the next level by topping it off with cured egg yolk!

Cuisine Italian
- 5 Tablespoons olive oil
- 6 Cloves garlic thinly sliced
- ¼ Teaspoon red pepper flakes
- ¾ Pound spaghetti
- Fresh parsley roughly chopped and to taste
- Cured egg yolk grated
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook for 1 minute less than package directions for "al dente."
Meanwhile, in a large pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until the edges just start to turn golden brown; about 3-4 minutes. Add the red pepper flakes and stir.
Reserving one cup of the pasta water, drain the pasta and add it to the pan along with the reserved pasta water. Toss to coat and cook for another 1-2 minutes or until the water has reduced and the pasta is saucy. Add parsley and toss again.
Divide the pasta between bowls and grate the cured egg yolk over the top.
Serve immediately!
