Whether you are in love or not, it is always possible to reproduce the delicious recipe for spaghetti balls that Lady and Tramp share in "La Belle et le Trochard", a cartoon released in 1955. In addition to being a dish which will remind some of their first movie emotions, these spaghetti balls represent a very good pasta recipe.
It's a mythical scene from a cartoon that is no less so: in
La Belle et le Trochard
, a classic Walt Disney animated film released in 1955, Lady and Clochard meet at Tony's Italian restaurant.
At the table, the couple are served a plate of spaghetti balls.
The two dogs, who are each looking to one side, then eat the same spaghetti and end up kissing to the tune of
Bella Note
.
In her column on Europe 1, the journalist Marion Sauveur suggests redoing this recipe, in love or not.
