    Dear grandma Gina, my name is Cristina and I live in São Paulo, Brazil, I speak Portuguese (I neither speak nor write in Italian or English .... sorry for the mistakes, I am using the Google translator), I am the granddaughter of Italians, my grandparents came from Vicenza, Veneto, in 1898 to work on coffee farms, almost as slaves. I watch your RUclips channel and I am delighted with your Italian accent ..... the timbre of your voice reminds me of the voice of my grandmother Amabile. I like your recipes that remind me of my family's recipes. Accept my greeting and my kiss ... Greetings

    If you don’t like her videos DON’T Watch them. So sad y’all give her thumbs down. Keep making your videos, and singing! You are an amazing cook and I love your videos. I wish I had some of your canned tomatoes they are beautiful. Now, make a video on how you make your chicken stock. I can’t wait to see you on your next video😍.

      Angelic Marie agreed!
      I’ve loved Gina like she’s part of my family. I can’t imagine ANYONE giving her thumbs down....ever.
      I have made many of her recipes and it makes my heart happy to have her showing me what to do.
      She’s the grandma I never had 💕

      I was watching her chicken marsala video. Some a hole had the balls to comment that you don't have to use marsala. Right! I want marsala! I wrote! If u don't want marsala what the hell u doing watching marsala to say u you don't need it! Shocking, the mentality. Anyways the thumbs downers are just from other RUclips cooks who are jealous

    Gina, I was so happy when you started singing. Tears came. It is harder and harder to find joy in this world, but when I watch your videos and you start to sing, I am filled with great joy. God bless you Gina and thank you for just a few moments of great peacefulness.
    Also can we get your broth recipe?

    • @BuonAPetitti
      @BuonAPetitti  4 года назад +1

      Thank you for your kind words. I make my broth by placing chicken pieces, two to three pounds, (mostly chicken wings and chicken neck bones) in a large pot of water. I add onion, celery, carrot, bay leaf, garlic, parsley, pepper and salt. bring it to a boil, then simmer for an hour. When it cools, I run the broth through a fine sieve so that all I have is clear broth. Store the broth in the fridge for a couple of days or in the freezer up to a month.

    I remember my nonna making delicious soup for us. She would usually use oxtails or beef neck bones and she would keep the vegetables whole, potatoes, carrots, celery stalks, and so on. My father is from northern Italy, and every meal had to start with soup, except for Friday when we would start with spaghetti and homemade sauce. My grandparents would join my parents and three sisters for dinner every night at our house, and I remember my mama cutting up the vegetables in the soup for everyone. It was a ritual, and I remember the feeling of everyone enjoying time together at the end of each day. I am starting to cry, missing those happy days and my grandparents and parents. When I get to see them again, I hope my nonna's soup will be our first course, celebrating being together again. I always order Italian wedding soup at Italian restaurants if it's on the menu, and I will try this recipe. It sounds delicious like all of nonna's recipes. I love listening to you and learning from you! Today, I made tomato sauce from tomatoes from my garden. Thank you for teaching the next generation! You are a treasure!

She sounds just like my grandmother and it’s actually a breath of fresh air to hear her talk and sing.Thank you for all your great videos.

You take me back to a very happy childhood because you remind me of the love that my mother put into every meal she prepared for her family. As her youngest son in a family of all boys, I was her main helper when she cooked. So, everything you do reminds me of her. Bless you. You bring so much joy into my family.

I love you Gina💗 ,thanks for the recipe 💐 PS last time I did look for the escarole all over Montreal ( for the Minestrone ) impossible to find . I guess I will use spinach . I love your English , it is little bit like mine 👍. We do cook the same way - old fashioned home cooking . the Best 👌👩‍🍳

    Gina you should bundle all your RUclips recipes into a cookbook. I am sure all your subscribers will be happy to buy one I do anyway. I also would buy and give them as a present to others. Ask your children or children in law to help you to do that. It also will be a beautiful legacy for later in your name. I hope you will think about it.

    That's how I make it. I do use spinach because escarole is almost impossible to find here. { and I love escarole }. I use ancini d' pepe" for the pasta. { it's also hard to find here in Texas } This soup is always served at my house at holiday time. Everyone seems to like it. I also love slopping up the broth with some toasted / buttered Italian bread..........As a kid, this was my favorite part of eating this soup. That broth.......! After watching this,......maybe today would be a good day to make some. This sweet lady must be from the same parts of Italy as my family. The way she prepares them is exactly how my family prepared them when I was a kid. That doesn't happen all the time, but I'm watching my childhood dishes being made as we did long ago. Thank-you,...Thank-you.

      joseph giustiniani I enjoy all of grandma Gina’s videos. It reminds me so much of being a kid and always being invited for dinner at my friend’s house. I feel so sorry for kids who never had an Italian Grandma!

      @@christinebailey9935 ...........Eating out in the 60's was a huge deal for us kids. { 1960's early 70's suburbs } We just didn't do that very often. But,...........we made all kinds of great food. And then there were the family / friends get togethers.. My gosh...! Food galore. Desserts, pastas, seafood, steaks, you name it, ( my Dad and some of the neighbors one fourth of July weekend, decided a pig roast sounded good. .. Spur of the moment...! Next thing you know, all the men are rigging up a spit, cinder blocks, and an all weekend party was born. All the ladies started cooking all kinds of veggies, and salads...! And yes , the beer and the booze flowed like water. Friday night till Sunday afternoon.....! } All us kids on the block still remember this party 40yrs later....! Talk about making memories.....! Like you, I feel sorry for kids, { and plenty of millennials } who have never tasted food such as what this lady has prepared. Finding places to eat this kind of food is possible, but you still miss the warmth of what I call,......................."the family element". The lady in this video is the perfect example of cooking with love. In her pizza video, she cooks several because, some in the family like them with more of this, and more of that. Her goal - to make everyone happy. That's why I cook my butt off to this day. Making those memories. Have a nice day Christine.

    I don't think I've ever tasted it with escarole, only spinach. I can't wait to try it this way. Is there a video where Signora Gina makes chicken broth?

    Although her recipes are delicious, I believe her singing adds a magical & love filled touch that feeds the soul.

    I already committed once but had to say I really hadn't watched the whole video. I felt I was in her kitchen for real. Loved her accent, her positivity, and her singing. Wish I had an Italian grandmother. Thank you for the love you showed in your cooking.

    Grazie Nonna Gina for all of your amazing recipes. I was born in Satriano, Italy. My family came to America in 1973, basically my mother’s entire side of the family came over. My mother passed in 2011, she was an amazing cook but no handwritten recipes existed. I came across your videos a few years ago, and your recipes brought back memories of how my mom cooked. Your recipes mean so much and I can’t thank you enough for generously sharing them. I also want to mention that you remind me so much of my mother’s two sisters, my Zia Mariangela and Zia Rosa, which warms my heart.
