- Rosina is from Calabria but spend some time in Argentina - where a lot of her generation emigrated. She shares her recipe for stewed peppers and maccheroni and insights into her long life.
For the pasta: 300g durum wheat flour, 2 eggs and around 50ml of water.
For the peppers: 1 onion, 3 peppers all peeled and sliced. olive oil and salt.
No cheese.
All of the women featured on this channel are living history. They are truly treasures. Best channel on RUclips!
I share this sentiment 1000 percent, and I know we're not the only ones. I only hope and pray they continue to document---not just for the sake of sharing their beautiful stories, culture, and cuisine, but mostly bc these women deserve to be showered w/the warmth of loving attention & caring company.
I totally agree!
I 100,000,000% agree. All of my grandparents died before I was 14 and my mother in 2019. I only have anecdotal recipes from them. One is from "the Italians down the street" my aunt chewed my ass when I made it for them because I didn't "brown the beef" for a dish that was going to take hours. Now that's how she makes her spaghetti sauce.
She rejected her suitors at a time where unmarried women were pitied or frowned upon, looked at suspiciously.
She's a role model. Go your way, knowing there is a price to pay but don't go a way because people are expecting you to do.
I would love to hear stories from her life.
There is a saying. Take what you want, and pay for it.
@@aaronbegg3827 People should remind that a bit more. Too many take what they want without paying up.
@Jayla, 1st of all I like your name, I have a friend named Jayla, anyway, I'm 58 & long married, but I agree with you, my comment is I would say don't settle just to get married. I have 3 sons, 2 daughters, youngest is 31, but I did not settle
@@stevelogan5475 No kids, was once married, didn't last and now a happy single aunt of two amazing nieces.
I got myself as free as possible. And thanks for the compliment. Appreciated. :)
@@Tantejay you are welcome ma'am, God bless you & your nieces/family
What silly man wouldn't want to live in such a beautiful home with lovely vegetables? Whimsical indeed.
she said he was a bit touch in the head lmao
@@ginacardarelli4877 because he didn’t want to move to Italy?
I think we need a spin-off series focussing on "Gardening Grannies" ... Rosina certainly has lots of knowledge to share about how to grow those peppers.
It’s so shocking to learn that after all those years of work she’s been compensated with a mere 500 euros per month, what an absolute injustice!
I’d take it. She has no rent, grows much of her own food, likely doesn’t drive so no car expenses. It’s not a fancy life but you get what you need. I live in Abruzzo and a lot of pensioners here live on about €700-€800 just fine because the cost of living is so low. They all own their properties and walk everywhere. Calabria is even lower.
Purtroppo in Italia è così. Molte persone anziane percepiscono pensioni di 500 euro.
There's a minimum number of years and a minimum amount each year you need to pay contributions for. Otherwise you'll get a "pensione minima", as she does, and as I will, too, despite working since before I even left school. That's what happens to people who've spent time abroad, worked "in nero" for years... tons of reasons why it can happen, and does happen to so many people. Working on your property, of course, doesn't count as work.
The amount you get for your pension is a reflection of the contributions you paid whilst working. The least you deposit when you are active, the lesser you get when retired. It’s math
@@claudiomatera7211 In Italy a minimum pension of 500 eu is guaranteed to all those who have worked and paid contributions, but do not meet full requirements in terms of the number of years worked in Italy, the amounts paid... (here things get a little complicated, too complicated in fact to explain here)
I don’t know what I’d like
more....to have a meal at Rosina’s house or to hug her.
As a young child I did not appreciate my Nonas. I loved them dearly but couldn’t understand how special they were. Listening to all of these
beautiful women makes me want to visit Italy, home of my grandparents. God bless all of
them!
Also, the number 1 reason they didn’t/couldn’t return to Italy is because they were wanted by the police. Very true comment!
I didn't appreciate or understand what I had waiting for me with my Nonas either. Now that I am old, I feel disconnected from my Italian heritage.
When they came here, they told each other to leave their European roots behind. My Polish grandparents would not even teach my Dad Polish because, as they would say, "We are Americans now, we speak English." The Sicilian side of my family was probably the same way.
If they are still alive, treasure your older parents/grandparents - you will never regret hearing their tales of the old country - it is, after all, your heritage, too.
@@oxigenarian9763 When I asked my dad about my heritage as a child I was always told: "a bit of this, a bit of that, 100% American Mutt." Having run what genealogy I can dig up, he wasn't wrong :)
@@silverlightx6 From what I could glean or drag out of the surviving members of my family, mine was far from that and, in spite of having a clearly Polish ethnic background competing with my Sicilian side, I found out recently that I am actually 1/4 Finnish and my Grandfather from Sicily was actually from Tuscany. These findings are mixed in with strong ties to Western peoples, presumably Celtic in origin. The intrigue remains unanswered today......
Darling Rosina, you cooked my Mum's favorite pasta....you made me cry...
Bless you! Wish all the best from Bristol 💐💐💐💐🥰
You tell them. You want to sell my property there’s the Door.
It makes me happy that she has family living with her
She is so lovely and adorable.
I’m all choked up over this sweet Pasta Grannie, Rosina. I absolutely love this series and it makes my heart swell to listen to their life stories and watch and learn to make pasta. Thank you!
Fantastic Rosina! Such an independent strong woman! Yes, a pension of 500€ is nothing, so unfair!! Politicians should watch this channel to see how fantastic are people like Rosina and pay them an adequate pension! And for the argentinian boyfriend: his loss!
Never married cuz some dude tried to sell her land. I feel ya sister. I’ve never marrying either. I’ve got all I need with my house, some land and a few rescue dogs. I’m happy as can be. To celebrate you, I’m going to grow peppers and make fresh pasta! - 41 year old lady from SF
I like your style OHW . Me I am a married man etc , The unifying power of these short "cook and tells" is great. Richard
You go Girl!!!! Yep.. single.. 53.. If someone isnt' going to make my life better and help and add to it .. because that's what i would do... then nope.. see ya
Agree. Single, retired woman with my own home and garden. I can cycle to the shops and manage minor home repairs. But it is amazing amongst my friends of a similar ilk how many men come courting looking for an easy retirement with someone to cook and clean for them. Agree with Rosina: there's the door.
41 y.o is so young I wish you married with good man and have a kids❤🙏
What a fierce and beautiful near-century-old lady: I will make such a dish and think of her. May she live as long as she wants to.
granny: i met men who were whimsical
me: same, nani!
My folks also grow these sweet peppers, and they're absolutely delicious. Not spicy at all, just like a normal capsicum.
Her story is so inspiring! This channel always reminds me to be thankful my grandmas are still alive and well, hopefully for a long time. Learning from our elders is the key to happiness and wisdom.
Yay! A Pasta Auntie!
To reject suitors because they weren’t accepting of her identity or affinity to her roots, she’s not only a great pasta cook, but also a feminist icon! I mean, I am sure it must have taken a hell lot of assertiveness and personality to live on her own terms in a patriarchal society. Such a role model!
Get your politics out of here.
So she lives and dies alone. Sad, she could have tried a little harder to find someone who matched her lifestyle more. She got lucky she had so many siblings.
@@fabrizio483 Lol you think you can tell others what to do. 🤣🤣🤣This person can say whatever they want, and your opinion on it is just as worthless as you think theirs is.
@@TreyNitrotoluene Only sad from your outside perspective. You can’t say what it’s like to be another person.
Pasta Grannies LOVES Calabria
The pride shines in her eyes! She has everything she wants and then some! brava Nonna!
Lovely thank you.
What a nice way to end the day. Cup of tea & watching the relaxing Pasta Grannies. Can then drift off thinking of pasta for dinner tomorrow.
Love the channel
Gli ingredienti freschi del'orto, l'olio d'oliva fresco, prodotto in locco, fanno di questa ricetta una squisitezza. E la nonna e un vero e proprio tesoro.
Food breaks down the borders and diversities of the world. Food unites generations. It is thanks to people like Rosina that today we can eat dishes that derive from ancient recipes. Rosina, for me, is world heritage site. I embrace you Rosina. Cheers, Domenico.
Those lovely, luscious peppers -- I'm envious! Rosina has a great outlook and wonderful smile. What a delight to spend time with her. Thank you.
It’s the smile when they applauded for me!👌🏾❤️❤️
Marriage doesn’t happen for everyone and that’s okay!!! If you can’t be happy with yourself, how could you ever think you could make someone else happy?
If more people spent more time figuring out who they truly are, and what’s going to make them truly happy; there would probably be far less failed marriages!
I Admire her!🙏🏾🖤✌🏾
NONNA 🥰🥰😇😍😌😊😇🥰🙂🙃😉☺️😗😘😘🥰😍😊😇🙃🙃🙂😇😊😊😊😇🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🎉🎊🎊🎊🎊🎉🎉🎉🍾🍾🍾🍾🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷
Thank you Rosina and you made the right choice. Never give up the land.
I loved today's video ❤️ I also have a DREAM, but no one puts faith in me but that's what motivates me. ❤️ Success for everyone who read this comment. 🙏
wearing her traditional dress, she looks remarkably beautiful and the skilled hands at work!
Word of appreciation for her great-niece who looks after her so well!
Great recipe. I'm going to do this tomorrow for dinner but, being Italian also, I feel compelled to add an onion and some garlic.
Love this video! Rosina is such a sweet, endearing woman! What a strong, wonderful person who lives her life as she sees. Brava!
👏👏👏👏 La Bella Italia!
She is the most inspirational nonna that I've ever seen. Very determined and loving.
First like and then watch the video.
What’s you problem with Argentina btw? It seems like you’ve to dislike living there by default.
Churrasco doesn’t mean bbq. Churrasco means beef steak.
I like her smile, respect ❤️
I wish her health and a long time with her family.
Is this the nicest channel on RUclips? Yup.
I can almost taste that dish. Frying the peppers like that with just the right amount of salt will bring out their sweetness so beautifully.
Adoro questo programma e adoro le nonne che trasmettono tradizioni e sapere. Grazie mille Pasta Grannies alla prossima!!❤️❤️
She wouldn't be nearly as healthy and happy if it weren't for her younger relatives moving in with her. Not every 'signorina' will be as fortunate.
You can tell that she is a woman of character, brava
You really don't have to marry folks, what an awesome lady.
She reminds me of my late grandmother.😢🥺😙
This channel always puts a smile on my face. Bravo!
Whimsical - good description. I would love to live in Italy and share a meal with this great lady, that looked delicious.
Plot twist , her Argentine suiter was German and didn’t want to go back to Europe after the war ???
Beautiful hands.....I love watching her roll pasta. It looks delicious and know it is! These ladies are so amazing at their age.
Gorgeous and strong woman! I respect that she chose her own path rather than following other people's expectations.
I want to be Rosina when I grow up. Unmarried, happily cooking and gardening.
Just a fantastic video. She made me smile.. You could spend a whole video on their gardens and the stories behind their heirloom seeds.
So much love 💕 it’s beautiful and delicious 😊
She truly honours the Rosina, since the story of Figaro is a name for fierce women, who know who they are. It was lovely to know her, tks Vicky!
She is a female Figaro as well. 😉
Such an inspiration to all of us, such a sensible and capable woman.👍👍
Hello Olga🌹. How are you doing?
Greetings from Argentina ♥️♥️♥️
According to translation, she says: "I am a spinster".
Actually she says: "Sono una signorina", which means "I'm a miss", not a mrs
signorina in that context means spinster. Same is Spanish
@@atrinka1 Nope, miss and spinster mean the same concept, but they have two really different flavors. "Zitella" ("spinster"), in Italian, is rude, it's offensive. If you wanna play irony on yourself you can use signorina ("Miss"). That's a big difference because you mean the same concept in two different moods.
Of course that means spinster, they're synonims. But miss is more accurate because is faithful to her intentions.
Precious and touching. Thank you.
I love her !!! ❤️❤️❤️ This channel is amazing !! All this amazing women are such an example for this society!! Thank you thank you thank you!!
hi Maria. It's our pleasure! best wishes, Vicky
Miss Vicky, if you're still in Calabria there is a lovely couple who live there and run the RUclips channel Pasta Grammar. Hopefully you can get a chance to meet them! They feature Eva (the wife and pasta mastermind)'s Italian mother, who would be so fun to have on your channel.
Thanks for another wonderful video and Nonna!
Beautiful, the pasta and the nonna 😊
She’s perfect!😍💖👵🏼
Beautiful honest story of this Granny’s life! I love how she is cared for by her family. 🥰
Do you pay these women that feature on this channel?
yes 😊
Complimenti donna Rosina deve essere eccezionale quella pasta fatta da mani di quella esperienza😘😘😘😘😘
Ms. Vicky, another great recipe, Rosina is a sweetheart, when I was young we had a Rosina on the street behind ours. I really like those thick, fresh maccheroni, are all the peppers sweet or some hot?, also, I left you an answer to your question & brief history on grits & their name origination from Appalachia from the last video. God bless you all
What a clever lady with all her decisions . Thank you madam Rosina, your statement was cheer me up. God bless you 😊. Much respect from me ( a 36 y.o woman who's almost hopeless about the complicated relationship )
I've been following this channels journey since the begin and couldn't go on without commentig on this one.
This is the frist Nonna (or person in general to be honest) I've seen/met to have the same name as me, although the writing differs.
It was strange yet great to hear 'Rosina' being called and watching another mouth anwsering.
Stay wounderfull, my namesake.
She prepared for getting filmed)That white blouse - ❤)
Out of such simple ingredients can a magical dish like this evolve. I can just imagine the toothsome pasta with complimenting sweet and slightly spicy Calabrian peppers! Just wonderful, thank you Vicky!
Now I understand why the mafiosi in the old days where some of them very fat!Having a mother or grandmother like these I would be very fat also!!!
Love this woman for following her own path and not caving jnto marrying because everyone else did at that time. Also, most of these pasta grannies are widows anyway
I admire her for holding steadfast to her way of life. If the men are being bothersome, send them away! 🙏💥 I love this channel.
♥♥♥ uu from: INDIA
Buongiorno,
grazie mille volte per questa deliziosa ricetta la mia famiglia vive in sardegna vicino a castiadas😋
I've just discovered your RUclips channel and I love it! How can we donate? Do you have a Patreon account?
Came here to find out what "maccheroni" was. 🤣🤣🤣
I'm married since 1998 and i'm happy 😁😁😁
I love, 💕 pasta,,, this is my go to Channel if you want to know how to make pasta from scratch this is the channel for you…
She basically told men to f*** off and i salute her. Brava nonna!
I watched your videos without skipping the ads. I love these nonna pasta diaries.
Какое наслаждение наблюдать за героями. Какая женщина! У меня глаза разбежались, не могла оторвать взгляд от наряда и одновременно пыталась читать текст....
Smart lady, she wasn't going to sell her home!, Good for her
Rosina is such a sweet lady with such beautiful smile I wish I could meet her 💝
That kitchen would smell heavenly
Spectacular dish! Simple and fresh food IS the ONLY way to cook! Wishing Rosina all the health, bless her!
sweet lady. sad she's alone. I bet she regrets not finding a husband.
Those aren't the palms of her hands. Those are her fingers.
Thanks to these ladies I eat like a god every damn day. Im getting fat :(
Nonna Rosina, sei troppo adorabile! Ed il tuo piatto è fantastico 😍
Beautiful lady and excellent cook.
She's beautiful in her dress..
You can't really argue with a pasta granny.
S5E2 “The Puffy Shirt”
Adoro questi video ♥️
What a lovely woman! Thank you!
Great 👏 she is a brave lady 🤠 a lot of love 💝 from Pakistan 🇵🇰 by. . . Hunger Solutions 👩🍳🔥
Linda Rosina! Fique bem.
Looks really good, but hmm dont think she looks like 1 on 94 rather 1 on 79-80 years
It’s true! These nonnas always look 15-20 years younger than their age!
Is there a way to get a Nana knife in the United States?
simply a beautiful woman
That's a gorgeous woman.
There's is always wisdom, beauty and heritage in looking the grannies cooking. Love this show. Hopefully the grannies receive something from this.
