Binging with Babish: Squid Ink Pasta from JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure

Binging with Babish, a popular YouTube channel where the host, Andrew Rea, recreates iconic dishes from movies, TV shows, and video games, has gained a massive following. Among the dozens of recipes, some of the most popular videos are inspired by anime shows, including JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure. One of the episodes features Squid Ink Pasta, a dish featured in the series, which has fans raving about its authenticity.

JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure is a Japanese manga series that follows the Joestar family through multiple generations as they use their unique powers to battle supernatural enemies. The series is known for its action, humor, and bizarre elements, including a vast array of food references. One such reference is the Squid Ink Pasta, which is served in Trattoria Trussardi Italiano, one of the best Italian restaurants in Naples.

Using his improvisational cooking skills, Babish sets out to make this Italian dish with a fusion of Japanese flavors. He starts by combining the squid ink and semolina flour in a mixing bowl, kneading the dough until it becomes silky and smooth. He then lets the dough rest for 30 minutes before rolling it out into thin pasta sheets. The pasta is cut into strips, leaving the signature blackness caused by the squid ink.

The next step is to prepare the sauce. Babish starts by sautéing garlic and red pepper flakes in olive oil before adding tomato paste, clam juice, and diced tomatoes. The sauce is then seasoned with herbs, salt, and pepper before simmering for fifteen minutes.

Using his culinary creativity, Babish incorporates some Japanese elements into the dish by adding dried powder of Bonito flakes to the sauce, which enhances the seafood flavor. He also garnishes the pasta with Tobiko (flying fish roe) and sliced Nori in a nod to Japanese cuisine.

After assembling the dish, Babish is delighted with the result, saying, “This is the darkest thing I’ve ever created, but it’s delicious.” Fans of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure and Italian cuisine have praised Babish for his unique approach to the Squid Ink Pasta recipe.

In conclusion, Binging with Babish’s take on the Squid Ink Pasta from JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure showcases his culinary creativity and improvisation skills. By combining traditional Italian pasta with Japanese ingredients, Babish has created a unique and delicious fusion dish. As always, this episode of Binging with Babish is both entertaining and informative, leaving viewers with the inspiration and knowledge to make the dish themselves.
