FAQ:
Who is this lady?
Gina Petitti was born in 1935 in Faeto, Italy. Her family ran a farm in Italy and she met her husband, Vito, in the same town. In 1970 Gina, Vito, and her 4 children immigrated to America. Gina’s husband passed away in 2012, but she is surrounded by a large family, which includes 9 grandchildren, and lives 5 minutes away from her eldest daughter in New Jersey. Gina spends her time cooking, gardening, and being an active member of her local Church.
Where does Gina get her recipes?
Most of these recipes are from what she learned growing up in Italy, but some of them have evolved over time. She has also learned new recipes from friends and family in America. She is always eager to try new things.
Why is no one helping her in the video?
Grandma Gina doesn’t want help! Usually, it’s because we will slow her down or not do it “her way.” For the videos we only show her, but when the camera cuts we jump in and help form the cookies or prep for the next step.
Why don’t we buy her a new...?
Grandma Gina has a closet and garage full of new gadgets, spoons, forks, pots, etc… but she doesn’t like them because she is used to doing it with her old tools. She has fun getting her hands dirty!
Who is behind the camera?
Her retired son-in-law films, her daughter helps her prep, and she usually has one or two grandkids in the kitchen.
Does Gina read the comments?
We print out and show her how much love she gets from all her viewers, and she is very thankful and hopes you enjoy her cooking! Your comments bring her lots of joy, laughter, and inspiration to make more videos to share with you.
Thank you for watching, we hope you subscribe, and we will see you in our next video! - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
No matter how sad a person might be, all they have to do is watch Gina. That beautiful face, her warm loving way, makes your heart glow with love. Your recipes are the real deal. Thank you for the joy you give me, and the world. God Bless You and your Family ❤️❤️
Michael L Edmonds, I agree with you! When I am sad I just watch to Gina and all my worries dissapear! She is like the Sun , she shinning everywhere she is! 🤗😍
So true she reminds me of my Nonna I smile every time I watch her.
Just like my Grandma and she helps keep the old recipes alive
My Sentiments Entirely.

Love how she adds not only her special touches of cooking but adds her faith too.
Love you Gina and all your cooking
I’m 80. So, you have a few years on me Gina. I’m half calabrese and half abruzzese. You bring back so many memories. I just want to send you hugs and love during this Easter season. God bless you for all you do!❤️

What a gift this family has given itself and the rest of us in these recordings.

Watching her shows always puts a smile on my face.
Gina, My mother loves to watch your show. She is 96 years old and she tells me to put the little lady on the TV. She says that you are so sweet and I have to agree because it is true.

This woman needs her own cooking show. She's so great to watch
How can there be any thumbs down? This lady is so sweet!
Right! They must not be Italian or just rude. She’s so sweet.
Difficult not to love this lovely lady. God bless you Gina. Toni, from Canada 🇨🇦.
I love GRANDMA I always feel better after she sings a song I thank GOD for you.
I love how you sing your Gramma's songs especially how you love Jesus!
🙏♥️💖🙏💖🙏💖
She is the best. Stands out above all other chefs. Original can't be. Better than that. She is perfect
Why would jerks give a thumbs down she is one of the loveliest women on the web so sweet,gentle and balls to sing infront of strangers. Sharing her family recipes smiling and telling her cute stories.
Thank you so much 💗 Happy Easter 🐣✝️🙏🌈🐰💕
Authentic Italian cooking lesson, a song AND a blessing!
Martha Stewart needs to step up her game.

I’ve always shied away from people who sing solo. But when Grandma sings, I freeze. I love to watch and hear her sweet voice, and songs of olde time. She’s such a treat.
Thank you Grandma Gina! My kids love this Easter bread. This is my 4th Easter making your bread and my children ask for if it slips my mind...lol! New family Easter tradition for us, God Bless You!
This young lady is a treasure protect her from this virus at all costs I pray!!
You may not realize this but, in this time of isolation and insecurities many of us are going through all alone find comfort in the way you share your recipes and your love. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts!💖
I will always make the sign of the cross when I am raising dough, from now on!
I absolutely love the way Italians speak English. For me it's like, the words are adorned with flowers and glitters. Its sooo beautiful. 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
I love how she chooses the best timing for singing. Not when she is in the middle of cooking but when she is 100% sure that everything is okay. Love you Gina and God bless you. Stay safe please❤️❤️❤️
I love how she notes that God raises the dough! In all of her recipes where risen dough is used, she adds the yeast but she gives God the credit for actually raising the dough. You have great wisdom Gina, wisdom that's born of years of experience that's been passed down in your family and passed on to your children and their children, just like it's supposed to happen.
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Yes. I was taught to make the sign of the cross over the dough by my grandmother. So I do.
AMEN 🙏🏽
Gina most definitely was raised by wonderful Christian parents hard-working and Great Cooks
@@1960leeannyes I still do that to every dough & cheese I make
I felt something celestial when she sang the song. I have a tear in my eye. I will play her song again.
Not only a beautiful bread but she is also a beautiful soul...
Happy Easter dear Grandma, you are so sweet and thank you so much for your Easter bread recipe!
🙏 Faith & Family ❤️
Bless you, Nonna Gina, for sharing your recipes, your smile, your faith, your stories, & your songs with everyone. 🇮🇹
Buona Pasqua!
These songs are not Italian.There is no "j" in the Italian alphabet!
Nice lady......... I MISS MY GRANDMOTHER 😥😥
Very good cook may I see you cook --- stuffed peppers again? I missed it Thank You
I miss mine too! 😥 My great gram and my mom but I feel them with me daily 😂💜😂💜
This video brought back so many memories of my grandma growing up in Brooklyn, NY. I remember the Easter bread she made was exactly like the ones Gina made here. I'm 66 years old now and grandma is long gone, but I still have the rolling pin she always used and use it whenever I bake. These cooking and baking traditions are so important to keep alive from generation to generation. Grazie mille, Gina.
Where are you from in Brookly?
We are also from.Brooklyn
MY GRANDPARENTS MOVED TO Long Island in the 60's. My family all.lives in Suffolk County by MACARTHUR Airport!
Beautiful to learn from someone like this lady
Gina's easter songs this year got me very emotional with what is happening everywhere. Thank you Gina ❤ All my prayers to our neighbors in Italy and Spain, to the US may you all be protected, please guys stay confined at home as what we are living in Europe is just the most awful time of our lives. May we all be united against covid19 this Easter. Be safe. Love from France 🇨🇵🇺🇸🙏 and Gina I will make those easter breads this year thinking about you and your beautiful songs. God bless you ❤😘
I started watching grandma Gina during this covid-19 era .I love her so much ,her recipes are so amazing I am trying out all her recipes .Amazing every time I watch her I forget about all this craziness happening.
Me too, I just made her Easter Bread and everybody loved it, I can't wait to make all here meals. I'm so glad I have her as my adopted grandma.
A backup oven in the laundry room is something I need in my life. Thank you and God Bless!
And a freezer!
I just love the way she bakes sings and brings the lord into it. God bless her.
🥰. In these difficult times you are a pure joy to watch. I remember making Easter bread with my Nonna many years ago. Making bread feeds the soul. Showing a whole new generation watching the old method of preparing a meal, & making bread especially is better than anything to keep us calm.❤️😘❤️👍👍👍👍👍🤗
I love her videos. She looks and talks so much like my Mom. My Mom passed away in 2013. I used to watch my Mom cook all the time and watching Gina brings back so many fond memories that it makes me miss my Mom so much, sometimes I start to cry because I think of my Mom and how much I miss her . I know she is in heaven and I will see her some day.
We lived in New Jersey too. Keep making these wonderful videos. You are a treasure. God bless you and your family!! Lots of love!! ♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏
She is an amazing Christian Catholic soul 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 my grandmother always made the cross on any thing food she made , and the dough she made a deep cross on it with her hand , my mom also make the same and I also do ☺️😍❤️🙏🏻✝️ to give God the credit to bless the bread and to be raise beautifully. Praise to the Lord 🙏🏻❤️✝️ May God bless you and happy Easter mama Gina and your family . Happy Easter everyone 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I just love her she reminds me of my Italian grandma who passed away in 2000 ... I also love her recipes that she is making..it brings back memories from my Italian grandma.... I'm going to try this Easter bread today.
“I don’t know what to say...it’s bread!” 😆 love her!! 💕💕💕💕
If y’all haven’t read the background story of this sweet lady kindly hit that lil’ thang that looks like a downward arrow...although it points downward it is nothing of such. A Blessed soul and I am so grateful to have crossed paths with you and yours. I love you. 🙏🏻🥰🤟🏻
Oh just like my Italian mama made it! I have all her recipes but this one doesn’t have the measurements, so now because of a Italian Grandma I have it!! Can’t wait to make this for Easter! 🥰Graci! Buona Pasqua a tuti!
Absolutely beautiful and yummy my mom made them for me when she was alive Good morning with a☕☕ Every bad situation has something positive. Even a Clock that has stopped is correct twice a day. So have faith and face the day
I love how she makes the Sign of the Cross for the dough to rise. She is precious!
Such a sweet lady! She has a magic touch with all her cooking!!
Oh Gina what have I done! I made your Easter bread and give it away as gifts and now all I hear is “When are you going to bring me more of that delicious bread. I just bought 50 pounds of flour! LOL I love your recipes and you remind me of my mother who was born In Asiago
lidia bonini Yes,
I have been there many times- absolutely charming city. My favorite Asiago dessert is called Ortigara torta. Have you heard of it?
lidia bonini the rest of my family is from Bassano del Grappa- I have many great childhood memories of visiting there.
lidia bonini I still have cousins in Bassano, from what I hear, Covid is still requiring lockdowns. How are you doing in Tuscany?
Two ovens...so Italian 💖💖💖
After adopting several of your recipes, I decided to buy the e-book (Kindle) so that I could have them at hand in my tablet. The recipes are so clearly written, however my conclusion is that there’s nothing better than the videos, where we can actually enjoy your presence and sweet personality trying to transmit to us your culinary knowledge up to the minimum detail. Thank you grandma, God bless you and keep you in good health for many, many years! ❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
We raise the bread, we think of Jesus. I will remember this forever! Love her!
God bless you Gina, you have made Easter Special for me this year, I am on lockdown, because of the Corona Virus. I am on Dialysis 4 day's a week. I am going to try making your Easter Bread. You make it look so simple. Thank you for the recipe. I love your singing, Happy Easter to you Gina and family. Máire McQuinn, West of Ireland ☘☘☘ ❤❤❤❤
I hope you enjoy the Easter Bread. Happy Easter to you, be safe . God Bless.
God Bless Nona Gina.....fearless...not afraid to give Glory to God. I make Easter Ukrainian Bread which is very similar....but I will always make the sign of the cross over all of my bread and food from now on. We should all be fearless in speaking of and thanking our God ....don't let anyone take that away from the world. Let us be bold like Nona Gina.
I just love Gina, I’m Italian too, I make my Easter bread the same!! Love and God’s Blessings to you all, always 🙏❤️🙌🏻🎉😘
Just in time to cheer everyone up in these frightening times love and hugs to you and your family
Thank you for displaying how to not waste food by getting every little bit, a concept people these days need to think about. The time may come they will be very glad they did.
My absolute favorite. But we like a little anise extract or anise seed in the dough. Beautiful.
A modern lady who appreciates and values tradition. I loved your style and presentation. You brought back lovely moments of the past when I used to help mum in the kitchen preparing for Easter. God Bless you grandma from Italy.
Yes, in all things we think about JESUS. Grandma I will have you sing for my bread when I put it in the oven.🎶 God bless you ! 🌹❤️🌹
Thank you for bringing some normalcy and culture and reminding us that it is Easter.❤️ love you so much Mamma Gina.
Buona Pasqua Nonna Gina. We add lemon zest to our Easter Bread. Yours is beautiful.❣️
Add music & Gina should have a recording session!! Beautiful voice Grandma ❣️!!!!
This lady has become "the grandmother" par excellance! I simply love her! What she offers is a piece of culture, every time! I wish her the best God can give her in this life and best protection in Paradise!
Beautiful, beautiful, cooking and praying grandmother. God bless you. Now I miss my grandmother so much. Yes...thank you for reminding us all to keep thinking of Jesus. She sings and makes me cry.
I “gotta put the yeasty “ , Love how she bless the bread and thinks of Jesus .
So blessed
So sweet and blessed from God
Blessed family to have her in their lives!!!
I miss my grandma
@@nannoazer109 hello
In a world of craziness, this video is a welcome relief.
I know ..it's a 2 year old clip .. but I Absolutely .. Love Her!!!!
My mom used to make this every year. When she developed breast cancer and had a mastectomy she lost strength and could no longer roll the dough. I had to go to her house and roll the dough. Your video brought back those great memories. Haven't thought about that in years. She's gone now 28 years but great memories. Thanks.
May your mom soul continue to rest in heavenly peace
Tonight in the UK it is almost midnight.
I miss my beautiful grandchildren Mia, and Eva-Lucy. They are only nearby but I cannot hug them. We are locked down but your cooking brings back reality. Thank you - I am a Nonna like you - I thank you with tears x x x x
Grandma Gina just makes my heart happy, God bless you Grandma Gina! I can't wait to try this recipe. 😘❤
Hope u doing well been a while ! Since we seen new video I understand life busy and we getting older but seeing these videos make me smile we love u ! 🇨🇦❤️
Thank you Nonna Gina. My family was from Caserta...I miss their cooking and baking. What a wonderful reminder to take it slow and remember our heritage through our traditions and foods. What a special gift you are. Thank you.
My German mom made bread like this and made the sign of the cross before cutting first slice. Nice memories.
Just wanted to say that Gina, you have such a beautiful soul! You remind me so much of my Nonna that passed away last year. She would have LOVED watching you and your recipes. Were from Massachusetts and know how important the Italian culture is and how important it is to carry on past family recipes. My Nonna was from Bonito Italy. Thank you for making me feel so happy while watching these videos
Ineria Smith. Memories are so precious, stay safe, 🤗. 👋🐢
💐🥚🤩Grandma Gina! I Did It!!!! I followed your instructions and created 4 beautiful Easter breads of my own! 🐣Thank U! I always wanted to learn, my Italian ancestors would be so proud and now my children have learned too! Buona Pasqua Grandma Gina! I love you!💐🌷💝🐇🐣❤
Simply lovely. So much of Gina makes me think of my grandmother, from another old country. Bread. Delicious.
She so patients with the instructions. So cute Nice song
Since my mother has passed,I try to make some italian recipes for my family.I miss my parents
I’ve made your bread watching your recipe with my family for the last 4 years ❤ thank you for creating a tradition for us
Love the way you said burro. In Italian it means butter, but in Spanish it means donkey. When my uncle was courting my Spanish aunt, he went to a shop to buy butter and the owner couldn’t stop laughing when uncle asked for a packet of ‘donkey’. Thought I’d share that story.
Anyway, we love your recipes and your bubbly self Gina. Happy Easter. Buona Pasqua. 🌷
Omg she is so cute 💗 watching her cook and listening to her sing made me cry missing my Bubbe Gee. I could watch he all day. Please stay safe 💗💗💗💗💗
You have inspired me and my boyfriend to learn Italian! My grandma is first generation American (78 now). She was only allowed to speak English as a little girl and much of the Italian traditions have been lost in my family. I am determined to give new life to Italian traditions and pass it on to my children! ♥️ grazie mille 💖💕
Thank you for this video ! It brought back to mind such a happy memories of Easter morning..going to my grandparents after church for lunch with the extended family..with all the noise loud talking eating and laughing over the meal. And then this fabulous bread with the colored eggs and sprinkles served with hot espresso ☕️. And my Gramma's contented smile as we praised her for it! Love you !
She is adorable 🥰
The dough rises....Ah! yes and thinking of how Jesus rose...lovely. Bless you.
Dear Gina,
I'm a Turkish guy who lives in Germany. I've been watching your videos for so long, and I just wanted to express my gratitude for the feeling you give while you're making your amazing Italian food. The way you explain the recipes, the way you find your way around the kitchen, and the softness of your voice (especially when you sing your Italian folk music) reminds me so much of my own grandma, who is no longer with us. She was the reason I'm obsessed with cooking so thank you for making me feel like I'm watching her again.
We have a special and exclusive way of expressing our respect to the elders in Turkey, and it's by kissing the hand (pretty much like one would kiss a Capo's hand) and then touch the hand on our forehead. It's the ultimate way of showing respect and humility. Please accept my virtual hand kisses, and share more of your amazing recipes. I can tell that you have a very loving family, because the apple does not fall far from the tree, and I wish you a long and happy life with them.
Grazie mille e cordiali saluti!
Beautiful words ❤❤👍
Beautiful said😊
God Bless your beautiful words. Thank you! Happy Easter!
Buon-A-Petitti you are such an inspiration Gina ,I just adore you!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
It doesn’t matter what you’re making just watching you is making my life much more enjoyable
I so love her accent! She reminds me of a southern grandma with an Italian twist..😊
Mrs.Gina, you have a lovely spirit and sincere heart to me...You inspire me to sing more in the kitchen !Thank you ! I Love your grandmother's tradition to bless the rising of the bread to emulate Jesus risen! Love it!! May GOD continue to bless and keep you and your family!!!!!
Thank you Gina, you have our whole family watching your videos. Fill out home with love, the kids walk in the room and say “hey it’s Gina:)” and smile. Saludos with love from San Diego, CA. We are making your Easter bread today!
I made it last night and it tastes quite close ti my dads. I suppose the difference is the commercial baking oven (my dad was an Italian bread baker). Great memories! Happy Easter
Absolutely love her. Like cooking with your Italian grandma. Lots of fun. I'd come home from school and she would be baking or frying veggies just to get me to eat them. Eat! Eat! You like. Boy do I miss her.
I love how your beautiful breads turned out, lovely. And what a treat for you to share a beautiful song with us. Thank you. Happy Easter to you and your family. We always say the following in all of our Easter Greetings, so I'll share it with you too.
Happy Easter! He is Risen, and we praise the Lord for the sacrifice of His son, Jesus, to die for our sins. His final words were, "It is done." So powerful and complete. May God bless you and your family! ❤🙏🏻😊
Two kitchens one for everyday and other for company always clean!! Love grandma 🥰
I LO❤E watching and listening to Gina cook and bake. She is the Italian grandma to everyone!
Grandma is such a blessing 🙌 Giving glory to our Lord Jesus Christ 🙌 🙏🏼
My husbands family is from Cosenza, Calabria. My mother-in-love is no longer able to cook. Watching Gina, brings mom back to me. Blessings ❤️
Love you Gina. I’m wishing and praying that you get through the pandemic safely 🙏🏻❤️
My heart is with this beautiful woman and all of the Italians suffering in Italy!
My mother used to make this every year. Thanks for the reminder. I will be making this at Easter.
💕Blessed Easter! He has Risen! Thank you.

This brought so many wonderful memories of my Italian Grandma and watching her cook and bake, when I was a child. Thank you for bringing those memories of a special woman in my life, back. Grandma called this Egg Bread. I think I will make one this Easter. I hope Grandma would be proud! Blessings!
In Russia we call it Culich (Кулич) - butter cake. Happy Easter! Христос воскресе - Christ is Risen!
