I love this recipe so much because it feels exactly like Matt: simple, precise, a little aggressive, secretly emotional.
Also: “If your garlic turns brown, you’re making regret, not dinner” might genuinely be one of the most Matt Callahan lines ever written.
And honestly? He’s right.
This is grief pasta. Coastal healing pasta. “Trying to become a family while pretending you’re just making dinner” pasta.
10/10. Get in my belly. 🖤
