- We have 4 lasagne to celebrate World Pasta Day! Progetto Essere Anziani a Mirafiori sud (To be Elderly in South Mirafiori, a suburb of Turin) uses pasta events to get women and men involved, thereby combating loneliness. It's a great initiative. And in this video, we follow four teams compete with their pasta al forno dishes, served to the public as part of the Slow Food Terra Madre events.
If you would like the recipes for these lasagne, please sign up for the November newsletter - the form can be found on the landing page of www.pastagrannies.com.

Can you imagine the wonderful aromas wafting from that kitchen?! This video make me so happy, and brings back a wonderful memory of summers spent in Siena long ago. I was studying at the Siena Summer Institute as a musician, and we were asked to play a concert in one of the many hill towns surrounding Siena. While getting ready for the concert, I accidentally opened the wrong door and ended up in the kitchen. There were a team of ladies preparing gnocchi, all wearing aprons, smiling and laughing while rolling gnocchi on a long floury table. I hated to leave, but had to play the concert. After the concert I discovered to my surprise that the gnocchi were for us musicians - the guests of honor, and they were plump little clouds of heaven! Seeing this video brings all of this back for me.
that's a lovely story, thank you for sharing it. best wishes, Vicky
I miss my Nonna after watching this video. She made the best homemade pasta ever. Long live all the Nonna's of the world. I remember growing up with long tables covered in pasta and the smell of her sauce on a Sunday morning. A very lucky treasure from life.
Every time I watch a Pasta Grannies episode, I am left inspired, awed, achingly hungry, and thoroughly happy. There’s nothing like excellent home cooking to wipe away all of life’s worries. Thank you, Vicky!
That's great to hear! best wishes Vicky
I love how everyone in that unfamiliar and crowded kitchen managed to maintain such smiling, relaxed and happy attitudes during this cooking "competition." Thanks again Vicky for sharing your love of pasta and grannies with the world. Festeggia con la pasta e il vino!
Everyone had a great time and took the constraints in their stride. 😊 best wishes, Vicky
That's what they let us see.
I wish my mom, grandmother and great-grandmother could have entered this contest. The three best Italian Grannies in the universe.
+Aunt Duddie I'm Hungry, Aunt Duddie! Whats on the menu. :)
I'm out of town for a day so you'll have to come over on the weekend and get pot luck. :)
I started watching your videos about 2 months ago.
They relax me so much. Watching all this Grannies making homemade pasta and sauces are soothing. I watch before bed.
I'm wondering how well the pasta would be with gluten free flour.
I've made egg noodles(thicker) for chicken and noodles.
So maybe? And is the key to noodles like theirs is the kneading? 😊❤
What a super Lovely thing you are all doing. This is our true treasure. The love of our mothers and grandmothers made manifest.
These ladies are lovely! I loved watching them make their incredible pasta dishes! What a fun group of grandmas and grandpas!
As a Pesto lover I am so very anxious to try making the Lasagna with Pesto!! It looks delicious. This gives me the idea to make four pasta dish's I have seen on "Pasta Grannies" as a special dinner party for my friends using only fresh home made pasta. I'll supply the pasta and my friends can supply the wine LOL
The "nonna" who makes lasagne with pesto says she's 72... not 62 as written. Anyway thank you for your amazing channel, I'm Italian and I love watching your videos.
oh rats! I listened several times - but perhaps she's thrilled to be 10 years younger! Thanks for correcting me 😊 best wishes, Vicky
Mirco 2:22 .....si sente abbastanza chiaro il 72.
Italian food leaves any other behind. It's simply the best. Nevermind Pacific fusion et cetera, give me Italian any day
It's wonderful to see all the different recipes each team presented. Italian food and it's culture is so varied throughout Italy. This video along and the Pasta Gannies channel is helping to teach and engage those who have a love for cooking and learning.
P.S. I'm here in Torino and will celebrate World Pasta Day at Pastificio Defilippis for dinner tonight.
Ciao Alejandro, have a great evening in a beautiful city. I'm delighted you enjoy Pasta Grannies. best wishes, Vicky
It's not it's. It's its.
For me it could be every day “World Pasta Day” ! (like in this video).
A different type of Lasagna every day ! How beautiful !!
Mamma Mia this “Pasta al forno” here 6:09 ! with fried eggplants !! mmmmmm 😋 👍👏👏👏
I wish I would have found your channel before my dad past away. He would have loved it. My favorite channel.
I often think how much my father would have enjoyed it too. One never stops missing them... best wishes, Vicky
Thank you !!
I could watch the grannies all day. Love this channel! Thank you.
Every one of this recipes should be one clip, they all great.

I loved seeing all the Grannies making their pasta dishes! I am inspired to make pasta myself, and my beef ragu is made pretty much like theirs! I notice they don't use garlic ? Or have I missed something? Italian food is just so wonderful, hearty and legendary.
De verdad! Qué mundo tan interesante he descubierto viendo tu canal, me encanta!!! Muchas felicidades!!! Muy buen trabajo!
Gracias Laura! 😊
Sono stupendi.. Bellissime Ricette.. Bravi tutti👍
Lasagna with ragu and besciamella is my favourite way of making it.
hi Max, it's very hard to beat 😊 best wishes, Vicky
Those different Lasagna recipes look so delicious.
every video is just a shower of beauty !!!
Flavio I am delighted you enjoy them 😊 best wishes, Vicky
Delightful!!!
Maybe retiring in Italy is an option!
Happy World Pasta day! This video had me drooling - guess it's time to have an early lunch
Nick, I hope your lunch was pasta related 😊 best wishes, Vicky
I'd love to be sitting at that table! I would love the eggplant lasagna!

Love this video!
Dio mio!!! 😋😋😋
I’m not Italian but I love pasta grannies!😊❤️
lisa tushman You don't need to be Italian to love these specialties, these delights ! 😉
They all looked so good, I think I am going to make that Pesto Lasagna soon.
Hi Asher, yes the pesto lasagna is quick and delicious.I'd be tempted to tinker and add some lemon zest to the béchamel sauce 😊 best wishes, Vicky.
Anytime you want me to be Official Pasta Grannies Recipe Taste Tester, let me know, honestly, it’s fine. Someone’s gotta do it, might as well be me..... 😏😁
The Calico Heart I’m in too. Haha
Love this
My lasagna (called pasticho in Venezuela) is just like the first one with meat ragu, bechamel, mozzarella, and parmesan or pecorino cheese. But the pesto lasagna and the melanzane one look delicious! Thanks Vicky!
hi I hope you enjoy trying out the different recipes. 😊 best wishes, Vicky
Credo che poter stare con gli altri estare assieme condividendo
La proprie appartenenza culinaria
E reggionale fa unità.
Spero che si ritorni a poter continuare tutto cio.
Questo periodo difficile
Ci sta facendo pesare quanto tutto cio che era scontato.
Adesso e difficile.e spero che le persone del video stiano tutti bene.
Grazie.
Yum!
take me back to Italy!!!
This is so wonderful,if I work hard next year October 25th I would love to be there.
Oh Georgina I don’t think that’s going to happen. Covid has ruined everything. It’s just too sad.
How do you find all this Grannies who show us their Recepies?
In this case the project organiser invited me for the day; but usually we find Grannies through word of mouth and contacting organisers and officials of food festivals. best wishes, Vicky
David Pinegar You're right !.... at lunchtime and even at dinner, passing in front of the houses, you can smell an irresistible fragrance !
I want to celebrate world pasta day too!!
Very nice Vicky, congrats to all the pasta grannies
HI Steve, I thought they did a really good job given the quite difficult conditions they were working in 😊 best wishes, Vicky
@@pastagrannies Vicky, you are underestimating yourself for the job you did under the conditions you were working in. Words cannot even describe what an outstanding job you did. I would have to be there and give you a great big hug to show you the appreciation i have, and i would say for all the viewers who were pleased with this episode. We love ya', don't forget that !
thanks Steve 🌺🌺🌺😊
@@pastagrannies you are more than welcome Vicky, we love ya', and all the pasta grannies, and all the techniques and experience you give to me/us, these traditions can never fade away, please keep them coming.
i really wanna try that lasagna
So much goodness in one short Video ..what a fantastic idea
hi Anita I agree - it is simple to implement and everyone has a great time; it is what World Pasta Day should be about 😊 best wishes Vicky
@@pastagrannies Vicky this channel makes me the happiest of all things on the internet, I was in Italy 2017 and watching these incredible women make food in their homes makes me laugh and cry at the same time ...again it is an absolutely inspired idea Brava !
Omg 😮 😋😋😋
I lived in Italy while doing doctorate. Pasta was a every day part of a meal........................................
bootblackbob Il Primo e il secondo (e qualche volta anche il terzo) . Ma il primo piatto è quasi sempre pasta, il secondo scegli a piacere....carne, pesce ...ecc. 😊
Loved all the recipes. What does the egg add to the last dish? Not heard of that before.
Patrice, the egg adds richness to the dish. If you watch the Nonna Igea timballo from last week you'll see her add beaten egg to holes she's created with her knife in the lasagna. best wishes, Vicky
I did see that episode. Gonna have to play around with egg in mine.........Thanks. Absolutely love the videos.
Was there enough for YOU to also taste all four of the dishes? What did you think?
I'm so happy to get this notification in time to actually "celebrate" World Pasta Day with a dish of my own for dinner, tonight!
I did taste all four. At the table where I was sitting (and being poor company because I kept having to film things) there wasn't a clear favourite - they were all good.(ie I won't commit!) Enjoy your pasta dinner 😊 best wishes, Vicky
I feel like the entry with store bought pasta sheets and pesto is sacrilege.
I have a question. My wife's family (Great Grand Parents) were from Abruzzo. I don't know about them or her Grandparents (who I know made fresh pasta) but her mother never made lasagna with bechamel sauce. They would use ragu , mozzarella, a mix of ricotta, egg, parmesan and parsley as the layers. Could this be regional or Americanized? Great video as always.
When I first came across this style of lasagna, I thought it might be a 'boomerang' recipe because the dish in question used non southern ingredients like mortadella and Parmigiano. But I think my first impression was wrong and this 'put everything in it' approach is typical of a celebration. But not the béchamel - that's definitely from further north. 😊 best wishes, Vicky
Thanks Vicky. So not using Béchamel is from further North? Or South?
I think the use of béchamel sauce is northern Italian - my knowledge of history is very hazy but France had two Italian queens and northern Italy was part of the French (Napoleonic) empire for a bit. The Italian for béchamel (French) is besciamella. 😊 best wishes, Vicky
I can't speak for all northerners but my in-laws live in northern Tuscany and use bechemel in their lasagna.
Ok thanks.
Who won? :)
Sono di Taranto neh.
I’d like to be one of the judges for this competition. I’ll do it for free too!
hi Michael, the good thing about this competition was everyone got to be a judge 😊 best wishes, Vicky
Santa Madonna fortuna che tra mezz'ora ceno
Even thogh partly industrial ingredients, this is food. Not any fast meal US people love. ( Others too......)
Besciamella rigorosamente fatta a mano..... ragù con 4 carni.......
If we are talking about lasagna of course the people from Emilia-Romagna would win... lasagna alla bolognese can't be beaten!
That said, is it wrong for me want to eat all 4 of them? Massives quantities of all 4 of them?
It's a little bit like choosing who you love more amongst your children! How can I choose?
2:50. This "Lasagna with pesto" seems to me to be a fake. All made with ingredients (sfoglia, pesto) bought yet prepared at the supermarket, except the bechamel.
I really need to move to the land of my ancestors where 90 year old's look like they are in their 60's, where life goes on at a slower pace and where good food is always available.
Not a real competion in here, first one was the better by far :-)
*Lasagne 😞
Mozzarella nella lasagna e come una bastonata sui denti
N.C.S. = Non Ci Siamo
Gosh, that was depressing. The last vestiges of traditional Italian culture being bulldozed away by noisy hip hop, American line dancing and pre-prepared supermarket ingredients. It's so sad these good ladies don't have families to cook for.
Although this YT channel usually features homemade pasta & sauces made by Italian nonnas, the important point was that it was a friendly competition, designed to combat the isolation of the elderly living in isolation. At the end of the day, everyone was eating & dancing together. Change is difficult, but also a part of life. If traditions never changed, we'd still be hunting for our
we'd still be hunting for our food with clubs & spears.
