Thank you Vicky for this wonderful idea of filming grannies and their individual way of making handmade pasta. Such a wonderful and sentimental way to watch and learn from the best! I love these ladies and thankful they’re sharing their knowledge. Keep them coming please! Bon Appetito!
Thank you so much for this amazing series of videos. I'm Italian and I know my regional dishes well but I'm learning so much about other regional dishes here. I love watching these nonnas making pasta, they remind me of my grandma whom I used to make pasta with when I was a child. She'd say in the middle of the afternoon, "shall we make 2 eggs of pasta together"? that was just another game to spend some time. thank you.
This should be x-rated! It’s the epidemy of gluttony instigating! OMG! I swear I could even smell the delicious perfume of the prosciutto! Mama mia! What blessed hands! 👏👏👏
I have never made fresh egg pasta and the more I watch these deft hand perform their skills with eggs and flour, 1 egg per 100g flour. What size of egg is used for this 1:1 ratio?
hi Andy, the average egg in Italy weighs 60-65g in its shell. If your eggs are on the small side you may have to add a splash of water, if they are large, you will have to add a little bit more flour. best wishes, Vicky
I am really enjoying your channel, and have some housekeeping questions-- do the pasta boards stay out all the time, or do some of the grannies store them someplace between uses? And do they just scrape the boards with a bench scraper at the end, or do they scrub them with soap and water? Thank you.
hi Erika, the pasta boards are used only for pasta - you don't want onion flavours for example affecting the taste. The boards are scraped clean, maybe a wipe down with a cloth, but no soap is used. The boards often have cloth bags in which they are kept in between use. best wishes, Vicky
I must say, I bought some organic, bronze-die cut 100% semolina penne and cooked them. I did not like them as much as ordinary dry pasta that has durum wheat added. The durum wheat darkens the pasta and adds more flavor and chewiness. Now I know. I'll save my semolina flour for making bread.
It's needed if you're going to saute your pasta with the sauce after draining it. You probably can do without if you're plating it up directly and pour sauce on it. I'd always suggest keeping a cup in case it turns out dry.
Maria has a beautiful, strong voice! It has clarity and authority - exactly the qualities absent in the voices of some stupid contemporary women who speak in an unsupported “vocal fry.” Look up the term if it’s unfamiliar.
nesa1126 Of course ! Our Italian cuisine is very rich (as the whole world knows, maybe only you don't). 😉 This is a channel dedicated to homemade Pasta and therefore here you only see Pasta.
@@aris1956 As the whole world probably knows, maybe only you don't, I made a joke :D I even included smiley "XD" to indicate it. But it was not necessary since it is so ridicules and obvious joke. I love italian food and wine and culture in general.
I love watching the experienced hands of all pasta grannies. There is no better way to learn about these dishes.
This granny has the poshest Italian accent I've ever heard. I love it! ❤️💕
YES! Even the voice comes from a different part of the diaphragm and that sounds DEFINITELY of a different “class”... WOW!
Every time I watch an episode of Pasta Grannies, I get hungry!
They all cook wonderfully!!!

Here in Italy we dont’have such a good cooking show about italian grannies. Thanks a lot!
Maria sounds just like Julia Childs. Great recipe, looks very delicious.
Thanks.... I ws wondering where have i heard this voice....
@@drberrydds1 Julia Childs was American.
Hahaha exactly what I was thinking too!
Julia Child, not Childs! There can be only one 😀

Maria is beautiful. She could have been a movie star!
My Nana would makes pasts with good olive oil and garlic and peas in the summer and with the ragu in the winter. this brings back so many memories.
I'm always fascinated by their rolling pin technique. Looks delicious too!
E schaefer : I am in awe of how rich looking the eggs are....yolks are almost orange 🧐😱
Same! I can watch all stages of the dough/pasta making process over and over, and never tire of it. 🥰
Another beautiful artisan. One of my favorite pastas.
Maria made me hungry, watching her cook that delicious meal.
Yum yum! This looks so delicious!! What a beautiful Granny. Beautiful hands.....
Such patience! Such a beautiful lady!
La Contadina. Il Contadino. Pasta Grannies are helping my Italian.
Thanks Maria and Vicky! We love pasta grannies so much! Am so hungry every time I get to see y'all cook! Love to y'all from Arkansas 👍 ❤️
I like to watch this vidio because they grandma have much energy for life m
Delightful - a favorite combination of mine but cooking the peas separately is a great idea.
What a nice relatively simple dish definitely making this one soon!! Thanks for another terrific recipe
Another amazing recipe. Thanks a lot, what a great lady you are because sharing your knowledge and experience!
Bellissima ricetta genuina Brava 👍👍👍

what a master. it looks so good on that lovely tablecloth and beautiful dishes. what style!
I wish i spoke italian so i could be a "pasta granny finder". 😁
Vicky, looks delicious, and i like all the ingredients. Have a great day ladies, God bless
Thanks Steve 😊🌺 best wishes, Vicky
I love Italian food ..
I don’t even like peas and I’d eat that right on up!😊👍🏾
Looks delish! I love all of your videos! Especially all the Pasta Grannies! I wish I had one! Will one of you adopt me please???
Those egg yolks are beautiful!
In love with this channel 😍😍😍
I love this, it reminds me of my grandma and my childhood. Please write in the description box the place you are visiting, I would love to know!
hi Valentina, Maria lives in Faenza in Emilia Romagna. best wishes, Vicky
Pasta Grannies Many thanks Vicky! My husband and I did bet on it and it seems I won!!😂
Complimenti, sembra davvero buonissimo! 😍
I'd go crazy making this pasta.
So delicious...!!! 👌👏👏
oh that looks so delicious!!
I love Pasta Grannies
Pasta Grannies are the Best!🥰
I LOVE this channel!
Excellent!!!
Beautiful serving dish too.
hi Kathleen, Faenza is well known in Italy for its ceramics and this pattern is typical of the town. best wishes, Vicky
@@pastagrannies, their best dishes, table cloths, jewelry, aprons it is all so sweet.
Wow that looks incredible
Will have to try at some point. Just need a good pasta recipie. This deserves fresh pasta not that boxed stuff.
You're kidding right? She just did the recipe.
@@AirrowRocket
Meaning i have to convert the grams to ounces and study the recipe so as to make it correctly
:)
@Elishia Montenegro
Cool, thanks
Must have missed that part
This is a very beautiful lady. I bet she was a showstopper in her 20s. She has very pretty facial features.
I think she is a showstopper now.
Viva le Donne italiane
Omg, I need that small parmesan wheel dish.
You can buy it on Amazon :D www.amazon.it/PARMIGIANO-REGGIANO-Formaggiera-classica-cucchiaino/dp/B00YKKPAA6
Wow fantastico

@@pastagrannies Thank you!
@@pastagrannies Thank you!
Absolut perfekt
I'll take a plateful of both please.
That looks delicious! I have to think of ways to make it without meat.
Linda Mccartney sausages are incredibly meaty, could use those with a bit of vegetable gravy for seasoning
a mix of artichoke, fava bean and peas would be nice 😊 best wishes, Vicky
@@pastagrannies Thank you! Sounds lovely!
Been watching these videos a lot recently, and would like to ask the experts how you clean and store your pastry board.
Brava! La sua voce mi fa ricordare un po' di Julia Child.
Who were the 3 people who gave granny a thumbs down??
pfuuu! 💗

They made a vid about this on insider!
the eggs came from a contadino hahahaa contadino... nice.
vicav001 You learned a new Italian word. Brava ! “Il contadino” (man) and “la contadina” (woman). 😉
Homemade “Farfalle” with Piselli and Prosciutto (people in the world know the word “Prosciutto”, but they can also learn the word “Piselli”). ;)
Would we (Americans) call this "Bow Tie" pasta?
Retired Art Teacher Yes! Bow tie pasta is actually called farfalle which means butterfly in Italian.
thank you, for answering the question best wishes, Vicky
Pasta Grannies Thank you for providing us such great content! ❤️
Love the shows, still dislike the music.
How about some Trentino grannies? Polenta, Gnocchi, etc.?
Trentino is on the list 😊 best wishes, Vicky
Polenta and Gnocchi are also shown on this channel.
The sound of this women voice reminds me think of Julia Child.
🙄🤗🤗🥇❤👏👏👏

In Romagna il parmigiano reggiano viene detto volgarmente "forma".
Strichetti in dialetto Romagnolo. Da stringere... strichetti.
Pasta water has become such a fad in the USA. Notice how NONE of these expert pasta grannies add pasta water to any of their creations.
It's needed if you're going to saute your pasta with the sauce after draining it. You probably can do without if you're plating it up directly and pour sauce on it.
I'd always suggest keeping a cup in case it turns out dry.
Love these videos! Hate the inane subtitles that make no sense at all. Lose them and let us hear the Grannies speak!
