We’re back at D’Amelio’s Italian Eatery in Waterbury, Connecticut, for Episode 2 of Gastronomia with D’Amelio’s Italian Eatery, an I’ll Get The Tip Podcast series! 🍝

We started with the appetizer, and now it’s time for Part 2: the pasta.

Giuseppe heads back into the kitchen to make an old-school linguine with shrimp and clams in a white sauce. Garlic, butter, olive oil, clams, shrimp, capers, Kalamata olives, cherry tomatoes, oregano, parsley, white wine, and a little heat all come together for the second course.

And because Giuseppe likes to do things his own way, he finishes it with a little Parmigiano Reggiano, even though, as he explains, you’re technically not supposed to put cheese on fish.

As always, Gastronomia is about much more than the food. Fratello Giuseppe & Giovanni and the I’ll Get The Tip crew get into the traditions and memories behind the meal, including how versions of this pasta go back to Friday night family dinners when meat wasn’t on the table.

The conversation goes from how to get pasta perfectly al dente to supporting local vendors, Giuseppe’s grandmother cooking everything in one cast-iron skillet, and how the next generation is keeping these Italian family recipes alive.

Simplicity. Regionality. Mediterranean flair. Great food, family traditions, and the stories that keep them going.
