looking at you making these beautiful Crostoli brings back all the memories of helping my mother at xmas was the special day of the house been covered with white sheets on every thing beds chairs and whatever i was with my niece the ones that had to carry the Crostoli to mum to put on the beds to dry a little then came the plates to put them on to bring to mum to cook she made enough for the whole family and friends wow thank you for the return of the beautiful memories i had with my late mother Adelina and my late sister LUCIANA.... im from Adelaide .... was born in TREVISO ..ITALIA....CIAO!!!!! THANKYOU SO MUCH
I would love to know what part of Italy Nonna is from? My family is from Calabria and I understood every word Nonna said! It really touched my heart! My mother and I made these Crostoli every Christmas although we called them by another name as is common throughout Italy. And we didn't use rum. We used Anise and I don't know anyone else who has ever used Anise flavoring. It was a joy to see this video, particularly since my mom passed last year and I will be making them by myself. Thank you for preserving the traditions! Would love to see more from Australia since I live in California!
Hi Carmela...thanks for your message. I have a feeling Angela was from Calabria too. (She was my ex-wife's mother's neighbour. She was Sicilian.) You picked up on the theme. The whole idea was to preserve both the local dialect and the recipes before they are lost forever. Sadly, within two years of making this video, Angela passed away, as did her husband. We did try to make further episodes but some 'nonnas' got a bit camera shy and we ran out of time.
This gives me beautiful memories of my Precious Mamma bella. I've only ever done this with my Mum and my Dear cousin thay have both passed away to early sad to say, I do it on my own for my family, not quite the same thank you for sharing. My mum's recipe was pretty much the same. Hope to see more of these lovely ladies ,I wish I could of shared your video with my Mum and Dad they would of loved it! My Mum and Dad came from Reggio Calabria, Delianova Merry Christmas all the way from Perth Western Australia.keep up Ladies.
Perfect recipe & lovely nonna! Don't know why the other lady appeared very stressed in the video. Most immigrants from Italy to AUS suffered the same. I still use a pasta machine that is hand rolled not electric. It was my mums. Sorry , I do not mean to offend. Thank you for sharing :)
Real Nonnas! Amazing they are magicians:-) ❤️
