Well, duh. Only a stunad would put unsauced pasta on a plate and pour sauce over the top.
However, I don't like the additional butter and olive oil he suggests. Makes it too greasy for my tastes.

I only do what my mother taught me, which she learned from my grandmother. etc...
I'm still aghast at putting plain pasta on a plate and pouring sauce over it. Americans, what a wierd people sometimes.

Waiting for Steve to check in and post on this...
The olive oil is fairly "heart healthy", maybe not the butter, but it is a small amount. The "used" water is just water with some of the starch from the pasta, so that would not be a problem for me. When I was a kid, we often had the sauce/gravy mixed in (keeps pasta from sticking together) and then more on top with the Romano sprinkled moderately)... best of both worlds.

That is the way my family has always done it. We always called it sauce, never heard the gravy term until I started watching the Sopranos.

I just noticed this today--- When I moved up here from NYC people looked at me weird when I said Gravy. So I taught myself to call is sauce. The same thing with Pizza, people don't refer to pizza as a pie. I remember the first time I went to Gino's on college ave, they gave me the stink eye because i ordered a large pie.
Oh and when I asked for extra Mozzarella pronounced muzzadel, the lady said "we don't have that" Huh you call yourself New York Style pizzaria?
Why are there no real pizzaria's If you don't sell Sicilian's by the piece, and have Calzone's ready to sell all day are you really a pizzaria?
Does anyone besides myself miss RC Cola? Goodness I love RC Cola. I wish they were still around!
This video didn't teach me anything my family hasn't been practicing.
