Italian spaghetti caruso-style recipe was created by the great tenor, who loved more than anything else the typical pasta of his native Naples: the story has it that, after being given a cold reception by his fellow-citizens,
Caruso swore he would never sing in Naples again but that he would return there only to enjoy his favourite pasta.
