Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 11 Oct, 19:24 · Archive

Brooklyn Beckham responded to online criticism of his spaghetti all'assassina by noting the dish is supposed to be charred.

Brooklyn Beckham shared a video on Instagram of himself cooking spaghetti all'assassina, a pasta dish made without boiling and featuring a charred texture. In response to commenters who said he routinely burns his food, he wrote: 'For all the lovely comments about me always burning my food this pasta is supposed to be burnt soooooo.'

The 27-year-old used tomato paste, jarred tomato sauce, store-bought stock and pre-peeled garlic in the dish. Some followers criticised these ingredient choices, with one writing that it was 'not real cooking', while another described the result as 'dreadful'. However, other commenters defended the dish, noting that spaghetti all'assassina is a typical plate from the Puglia region of Italy and that Beckham's version was 'quite a good representation of the recipe'.

Beckham has previously faced online criticism for his cooking content on social media. In August, he posted a video of himself cooking pasta with seawater gathered from a yacht, which drew negative responses from viewers.
