I have the same logic with my family recipes. I don't care about sharing our "secrets" because people can't precisely replicate the dishes anyway. Learning a list of ingredients and techniques is no replacement for making the dish about once a month for over ten years.
I hope she doesn't get in trouble for this video.... after all the first rule of the secret gnocchi ricci club is you don't talk about the secret gnocchi ricci club.
Elvira is a generous, 'share the knowledge' kind of person; she also wants a good news story for Amatrice which was pretty much demolished by an earthquake 4 years ago. 😊🌺 best wishes, Vicky
Yes, this is a real Italian women as she once was.Not everyone understands why we Italians love to cook, and the joy she gives us , maybe watching these videos they will find out.Thanks Pasta Grannies
In generale le donne di molti paesi, oltre l'Italia, trovano nella cucina una liberazione... probabilmente perché storicamente è stata l'unica forma d'arte (perché la cucina è anche arte) a cui avevano libero accesso, e nella quale vengono trattate più o meno ugualmente agli uomini.
@@DerpityMusicAndMu ... molto più Easy...si vede da come scrivi che non cucini...la passione per la cucina è un modo per nutrire il corpo e lo spirito delle persone che si amano...una forma di amore...ecco perché le mamme, ma soprattutto le nonne, sono le più brave!😎👍
@@MrThemucco Convivo con il mio compagno e sono quella che prepara i pasti il 90% del tempo quindi non so per quale motivo hai dedotto che non cucinassi xD Comunque a casa mia cucinava sempre mio padre e mia madre era impedita. Quindi penso sia una forma d'amore, come una forma d'arte, in cui sia uomini che donne possono eccellere.
This has to be one of the most culturally valuable collections of videos I have come across in the almost 15 years I've been watching videos here on YT. It's beyond inspiring. I wish there was a channel like this one for the grandmas of every country of the world! What a wonderful way to have a slow food revolution! Thank you Vicky for all the work you've put in here! I had my 6 year old daughter and 4 year old son making their own pasta for dinner last night so we have all been inspired by the pasta grannies of Italy! 🥰
this is why this channel is so great! the world might have never known about stuff like that. old ladies guarding their receipies like a treasure. well done
I don't understand why they guard secrets like this how one part of the society knows more than others isn't it the same culture, how is it possible living together for many many thousand years that one part of the society knows more about certain things, than another part of the society in Italy? ?
Other countries don t have the same tradition and culture to make pasta or hand made food in general (for ages).... but italian grannies are enough 🇮🇹❤❤
Vicky, your channel is the most complete and fantastic enciclopedia in the world about Italian pasta. This work is worth an Ordine al merito della Repubblica, the Italian order of knighthood. I swear, someone in institutions should recommend you for that!
Hai ragione. You are quite right !! Once these ladies fly up to heaven, their culinary secrets would be lost forever. All these video's should be stored in an archive. A me piace molto cucinare,ma a fare questi gnocchi....manco per sogno😂.Buon anno carissima signora.🥂🍾
This was such a treat to watch! Here in the southern part of Brazil we were colonized mostly by germans and italians, and our culture is a lot different from the rest of the country, which was colonized mostly by the portuguese. I can testify that this is like watching any of the grandmothers I grew up with, mine, my friends', my neighbors'... It was always an explosion of joy to gather the kids in the kitchen while grandma would cook for us. I've been watching Pasta Grannies for a while, but this one hit really close and dear to my heart, I felt like a kid again. Lots of love to Elvira and the whole Pasta Grannies team.
Thanks a lot for sharing! I’m so happy to see people in Amatrice laughing and dancing, knowing what had happened a few years ago 👍❤️❤️❤️ And yes, I make homemade pasta for years, but this is absolutely new shape to me
I love that she is sharing her town secret to the world. Its through sharing that the whole world cares so much for italian cooking. And this women has brought us all here. Love her energy.
What a fun energetic lady. I think I could live several lifetimes and never master that technique. I hope a younger member in the family learns so that it continue to pass through the generations. Thanks so much for sharing with us all! Patti
Love her spirit. Thank you so much for providing such amazingly and succinct content! This is my favorite channel and I dont even watch TV! Pasta grannies makes different pasta varieties the same way that I've learned to make noodle varieties in my culture. So cool!
Elvira is a fantastic woman! I’ve been to her house and she cooked a feast for my husband and I! The food was unbelievable to say the least... She is a true joy to be around! Her huge smile is a reflection of her beautiful heart! Elvira treated us like her own family. For the whole time we were there we never stopped smiling. We had never met in person until we actually visited her and by the time we left, we felt we have became a part of her family. Elvira, and her family left a beautiful mark in our hearts! How blessed we are to be a part of this wonderful family! 🥰💗 🇮🇹 🇧🇷 🇺🇸
Love a lot of things about Elvira! Her energy, her energy, her story telling, her apron - excellent video for a Friday, as the world awaits the outcome of the US elections! Thank you
she sounds fun, note the boiling water flour mixture, it resembles the Tangzhong method, 150 grams flour to 2 eggshells it could be around 95 grams, well above the 1:2 liquid flour ratio. wow. nice best video so far
I am from Italy, and I had no idea these existed. They do look challenging to make, will try them at some point and inevitably fail but still..will try! Thanks for showing us this, it's so nice to see the passion in Elvira and the joy that cooking brings to her.
Thank you! This was absolutely lovely. I am totally in awe of Elvira’s skill, her love of life, her beauty, and her kitchen and view. How could one not be happy to cook such delicious food in such beautiful surroundings? I don’t think I’ll tackle this particular pasta shape just yet, but I’m so thankful that I now know it exists. It’s on my to-do list for sure.
She's SO much fun! That's a really cool technique, making the two separate doughs and kneading them together. (Also, that kitchen is fantastic. Just as vibrant as the cook!)
Now she is a pasta granny to have wine with. What fun.
She does, doesn’t she? A real gem.
The gnocchi ricci is astonishing, but Elvira steals the show! So wonderful to see such joy while keeping traditions alive. ❤️
Right? She’s hysterical 😂
She doesn't care if people know the technique, because most people wouldn't master it anyway. I love Elvira's mad scientist energy!

Esatto Monica, se non sei italiano non potrai mai capire al 100% la nostra GIOIA per il cucinare e il mangiare!

I would subscribe to every single one
What a brilliant idea. Get onto it doco makers!

Her Joie de vivre is to die for. Such a pleasing personality, I bet she must be friends with all of her neighbourhood
„To make the pasta, Elvira takes 2 eggs of water“ that’s a new measuring unit on me 😂 Take that ml and oz
A much better standard of measurement isn't it
lol!
Pasta is made with nonna's love, no need for precision😂
Her energy is so contagious. Much love from The Philippines. Nonna Elvira, your secret is safe with us! 🥰
I hope you realise how important those videos are. They truly are historical documents. Thank you so much for making them.

With all the energy that Nonna has, it's no wonder she was able to master gnocchi ricci!
This is wonderful, and she's magnificent. I love her pride in her excellent cooking skills and great recipe and lovely region.

I absolutely love this dear women, she seems to just love what she does.
Absolutely love this dish and especially Elvira! She has such a positive, infectious energy! Wow :)
Well, Elvira is a complete delight! This was fascinating to watch. I'm intrigued by how and why all the different shapes came into being.
I love her spirit. I hope to be like her when I'm older.
Oh Boy, this is hard work! I'm glad someone else is doing it and teaching it!
She's SO much fun! That's a really cool technique, making the two separate doughs and kneading them together. (Also, that kitchen is fantastic. Just as vibrant as the cook!)
I just love Elvira !!! ... wonderful cook ... delicious food !
Elvira is a hoot; I love her. And what beautiful gnocchi!
This Nonna is fabulous! Her enthusiasm is infectious, but, blimey, I’m quite daunted by the wrinkles! But, with lockdown I might as well try...!
That’s the joy I needed to make my day. Keep on the good work guys, this channel is priceless!
Love love her energy!!!
Elvira's joy is contagious. I am smiling just watching her.
I’d love to attempt this pasta shape and the fact it is a gnocchi without potatoes 🤔and she is a treasure, keep your videos coming!!💕💕
Technically, gnocchi just means dumplings, so I think it's named more after the shape.
oh, gnocco is also slang for a cute guy LOL! So, if you see a hot guy on tv, you can be like, "Che gnocco!" and fan yourself dramatically LOL!
Gorgeous pasta. Incredible. Good on her for sharing it. ❤️❤️
Oh my goodness I just love her! lol I get that happy about pasta too 🤣❤️
love her energy, her kitchen and her skills :)
This must have been so much fun to film. Elvira is full of joy!
