I LOVE Nonna Pia! She is so sweet. And I think the reason some people chop the ends off the words and say things like mozzarel is because they come from Naples. My family comes from Naples and that’s what we do too. It’s like a whole different language! I love learning about stuff like that lol.

I think a lot of the American Italian recipes come from the lack of access to certain ingredients. Specially back then when the world was not as globalized. That's why some Nonas might have ended up using a different type of cheese or like it happens sometimes is a slight variation of the recipe that comes from the family and believe it or not, finding certain ingredients is either hard or expensive. It happens everywhere. For Cubans, the way we do black beans differs a bit some add culantro instead of oregano, some add bacon, some don't, etc.

@aris1956 8 ай бұрын

@@Oscar-gq4ro It is not difficult to find grandchildren who surpass their grandmothers, partly because you start with the experience of grandmothers and then maybe over time certain dishes are modified for the better, certain recipes are refined and brought more to perfection. Our grandmothers knew certain things in their own way, but that way was not necessarily always the absolute best system. Also because in their time there was not the affluence of today and they were forced to do things with what they had available to them.

Here in the states, Italian Americans that live in places like New Jersey, some in New York etc, pronounce things without the vowel at the end, like prosciutt, mozzarell, manicott, it’s strange to me, but that’s how they talk, they also call Ragù, or Sugo gravy instead of pasta sauce, that’s always been a huge argument here in the states, I’m almost sorry that I mentioned that part, my family has always called it sauce, but in light of stopping the arguments, I call it by it’s proper name now, be it Sugo, or Ragù. I love watching italian Nonna’s cook, We all can learn so much from them. Great video chef. 🇮🇹😎🇮🇹

I am from an Italian family (half) and I'd like to say I've seen so many videos showing pasta 'mixed' with the sauce (it ain't gravy) but that was not how we did it. A bit of the thick sauce was put in the plate first ( a meal in itself) then pasta, then cheese, so it would melt into the pasta, not mixed. Then the sauce on top with more cheese, preferably Romano. Topped with hot pepper flakes as an extra.

This is like a breath of fresh air. These Nonnas whipped up great results in LESS TIME and effort than the "one pan" atrocities perpetrated by fools that think that their "hacks" are clever. Real mozarella is ALWAYS better than a bag full of plastic shreds. Black pepper is intended to be used and not just to fill a space in a spice rack! I buy both ground pepper and whole peppercorns as I do go through a lot and the ground pepper has no chance of getting stale. I am not Italian and, ironically, it was my father who seemed to have an instinct for cooking whereas my late mother lacked this and truly needed to learn how. This she did ... except for liver. That was her "kryptonite" and I swear that one could re-sole an army boot with her fried liver. It took me decades before I tried liver again at a local restaurant. Sorry mom, but this guy knew how to cook it properly.
