FAQ:
Who is this lady?
Gina Petitti was born in 1935 in Faeto, Italy. It is in the province of Foggia in the Puglia region of southeast 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 enjoys making food for her family in the same old fashion ways as she was taught by her mother and grandmother in Italy, and also new things she has subsequently learned from family and friends in America. She also enjoys 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 and behind the scenes?
Grandma Gina’s retired son-in-law, Nick, does the filming, editing, production, and channel management. Her daughter, Maria, helps with food preparation, kitchen setup and fan support. Also, Grandma Gina usually has one or two grand-kids in the kitchen to help.
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!
My grandparents were all born in Italy and Gina remindsr so much of my older family members. Now I'm the family matriarch, I'm 75.
I always forget to say thank you to your son -in -law for taking out of his time to film, edit and post these wonderful recipes. It is very much appreciated. THANK YOU!!!!!!!
amen
How can someone seem so fragile and strong at the same time?!!
… Only a grandma who has fed and raised a generation of kin with little expectation in return!

Today, September 8th, on the Blessed Mother's Birthday, the world was Blessed with one special lady. GOD Bless you!!
When I close my eyes and listen to Gina I hear my Grandmom. Sounds just like her.
What a treasure she is for me and so many others, I have told so many people about her that they should watch her. She makes my day like sunshine. Her family is so blessed to have this wonderful woman. Thanks to whoever got the idea to have her do these videos. Her cooking is wonderful but she is the entire package. Sending loads of love to Gina and her family.
Congratulations Gina on 1 million subscribers 🎈 love all your recipes 😋
Anybody who has someone like Grandma Gina Petitti to cook for them is *blessed, indeed.* Thanks for posting! ☮️❤️🐾
Grandma's channel is the BEST on RUclips ❣️ 😋❌⭕
❤Love the singing and the prayers. That's the added ingredient for her delicious food.🙏
🙏
Buon compleanno Bella!
You are so blessed to still have your mom! My mom
Was born in Naples Italy and came to this country during WWII - I am first generation born on Long Island. I Miss my mom. She passed from pancreatic cancer in 2011 and was 68 years old - I miss her everyday! Watching Gina reminds me of my mom! Her cooking, her broken English- her garden - the good old days! God bless you Gina! Un bacio! ❤
She reminds me of my mother-in-law from Italy. She was a good cook, too. She has passed, so now I watch Grandma Gina
Happy Birthday Nona Gina! Congratulations on the 1 million subscribers, your garden is beautiful, and thank you so much for the new recipe! My family loves everything that I make and I am learning so much from you. Many happy returns on your special day!
Thank you Gina! You so remind me of my wifes late Italian grandma. The love you show as you move around the kitchen. Your beautiful accent, your amazing cooking, your wonderful singing and did I mention cooking? I could almost taste the linguini as you tasted it. Yum!
Stan I agree 99% with you except one thing, it's not lunguini 😂😂😂, but fettuccini. Lol!
By sharing your wonderful recipes you share your honest life with all. I live alone and cook for myself. No nona, no wife, no daughter. That's way your demonstrations are so important for me. Thank you my dear Gina.
I love to watch Gina cook, listen to her descriptions, and hear her sing. She reminds me so very much of both of my grandmothers, who came from Sicily. This eggplant sauce looks fabulous & my garden is producing eggplants like crazy, so I'll be making this soon!! Thank you for sharing this beautiful woman with us!!
Cheryl, I know you posted several months ago. It’s winter now and snowy. But I wonder how your eggplant sauce came out when your garden was full of eggplants?
Fabulous!! Everyone loved it. It will be a regular when my garden is producing.@@singing3495
It's like having lunch with Gina!!! Everything homemade! The best Nonna on RUclips!! And I love that award sitting in your kitchen. You deserved that and more!! Grazie!! 😊
Happy Birthday beautiful grandma Gina many blessings always to you ❤️ I love your cooking n you love n hugs Rosemary
Always a great day when Gina shows up. We love eggplant and grow it in our garden. Fantastic to have another recipe. Blessings to you and your family. 🙏🌼❤️🤍💙
Have you ever made caponata? It’s great on bruschetta, and pasta. I don’t can anymore so I freeze small batches when the eggplant looks good.
@@janicewalker477 No I haven't! I'll have to look up a recipe. I wasn't aware you could freeze eggplant. That's also helpful, Thanks! 😊
My husband and I don`t eat meat on fridays, because the Pain of Lord, so this recipe will be a perfect meal for us. Thank you so much and God bless you.
Nothing but love for this lady
What I would give to spend an afternoon with her to cook with her and listen to stories of her past 🥰
I just found this channel and I feel so at home. Gina seems like such a wonderful and sweet lady. She reminds me of my grandma and it warms my heart. I have so many beautiful memories with her and watching Gina cook brings me back to being a little girl in my grandma's kitchen watching her cook. Thank you for this.
My grandmother on my Mom's side was from Naples she would cook this dish all the time. When we came over to visit her the house always smelled amazing. I have such great memories growing up back then and was blessed to have family from Italy. Thank you for your videos may God bless you and your family 🙏
Obvious that Gina wanted to get back to her bowl of delicious pasta! 😂😂😂 I can relate and that makes me laugh. Keep up the good work, Gina, I never miss a video.
Seeing Grandma Gina, watching her cook and hearing her sing just makes my heart happy. God bless you Grandma Gina! ❤

Thank you.@@BuonAPetitti
Picked up an eggplant at the farmers market, but without your homemade tomatoes and fettuccine it won’t compare ~ but you are boundless inspiration!
Che grande sei Gina in tutto nel tuo cucinare, nella tua allegria e sopratutto nell'esporre la tua fede con canti e preghiere, Dio la benedica.
Incredible grandma!
🎉 I just recieved my Nona Gina's cookbook and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! I can't believe how nice it is. It is so worth buying. It has everything in it. No more rewinding videos, no more screen shotting recipes,ect. Also, this cookbook would make a nice Christmas present. I will be buying two more for Christmas gifts this year. She even has her canning recipes in it, step by step. The texture of the book cover and pages are real nice, as to also all the colored photos on every page. I am so glad I purchased it. Can't wait to show it off to all my girlfriends. I thought I'd leave a comment to tell everyone how nice it really is and that you definitely get your money's worth buying it. I really really love it!!❤
I can only imagine how your husband must of smiled, when he heard his beautiful wife singing from the kitchen. ❤ I will make this dish for certain, I have fresh eggplant and that looks delicious.
Happy Birthday Beautiful Grandma Gina ❤
