Your mother is soooo beautiful David! I'm sure even if the Tiramisu wasn't perfect the fact that her son made her favorite dessert I'm sure is what made it one of the best Tiramisu she has ever had!
@@DavidSeymourOfficial i don't remember ever seeing you try, but you should definitely make a brazillian style carrot cake in the future, it's completely different from the carrot cakes up there but really tasty! if you ever actually make it, don't forget to include the brigadeiro on top :D
In the passed few years, my dad has really gotten into our Scots-Irish heritage. That's Scots that went to Ireland after stuff kicked off in Britain that later went to America when stuff kicked off in Ireland. That doesn't magically make us as Scottish as people from Scotland, but it gives us history unique to us.
As a person from Scotland living in the US it's very frustrating to me when people say "I'm Scottish". On the other hand, I'm happy people are excited about Scotland and if they say "I have Scottish heritage" that's cool! But they're not Scottish, they're American with Scottish heritage.
@@altariia its unique to younger countries with a lot of immigration that there is not a real sense of identity with where you live, as a Canadian, the only sense of historical patriotism we have is really disgusting (if you are not aware, up until the 90's there were STILL residential schools that were historically used to kidnap and house indigenous children and make them "civilized", and currently there is still a huge inequality gap if you are indigenous) the history is not something i am proud of, so it makes sense to me when people want to feel as though they have an identity related to a country, they would not chose the countries relevant history of genocide, even though this is not the only soil that has occurred on, there is very little heritage that isnt directly related to the immigrants who moved here, or the colonizers who settled here. (plus, learning about your families history is kind of cool)
@@mega-egg5808 Australians have never said that they are another nationality.. we say we have Scottish ancestry.. or Irish ancestry.. even my Italian partner (was born there) called himself an Aussie..
@@mega-egg5808 There is almost not a single country in this world that doesn't have an ugly side to its history. You can be proud of your country and acknowledge the attrocities it was involved in at the same time.
“Ooh I like it!” “You don’t gotta be nice” Classic mom and kid interaction there. I’ve said that plenty of times when I make a dinner or dessert I’m…less than proud of. My mother swears it’s perfection but, I don’t know.
if you ever want to check out german desserts, i have to recommend the prinzregententorte, which is somewhere between 10 to 15 very thin layers of cake sandwiched between hardened chocolate and topped with jam and/or sprinkles.
Not only am I not an expert, I'm not even a hobbyist. But in terms of coloring a cake that has no leavening, I might try hold back the egg whites, mix and color the rest of the batter, then fold in whipped egg whites to try to keep it as airy and fluffy as possible, if that texture is important to me.
That’s such a simple, clever solution: add a little color to the batter, then a little color to the egg whites. I guess the only downside is a couple more bowls to clean. But probably totally worth it. Thank you!
About the ancestry: I admit to being a bit annoyed whan someone from the US claims they are e.g. Polish when only their great grandparents came from there and they don't even speak Polish and never visited that country. If it's worded like "I have polish ancesters/my family originally came from XY" or something like that, I don't mind it at all. I feel like the distinction is important, there is a big difference to the people who actually live in that other country (or at least often visit family there etc.) and experience the culture first hand rather than the handed down family traditions. I myself e.g. simply say I'm German, even though my grandparents on one side came from Croatia. But both my parents were born here and I only got a tiny glimpse into Croation culture, so it would feel wrong to call myself Croation-German or something like that - even though technically my father is the child of immigrants. It would feel appropriate if i was raised bilingual, often stayed in Croatia for a certain amount of time, had connections there etc. I guess that's the approach most Europeans have.
I will only get into this discussion if asked. But honestly as a white person we are mutts. If you can't point to someone you've met who was born and or raised in that culture I think you need to assimilate to your current country and accept that identity. We can all eat foods from anywhere anyway
Usually when you ask an American what they are you’re asking their ancestry which is why we don’t specify that it’s ancestry because it’s common knowledge here.
This is an attitude that is seemingly common amongst Europeans (getting annoyed when Americans claim to be anything other than American). We here in America do this because we don't see being "American" as a cultural identity. Therefore ancestory is one of the only ways we have of categorizing ourselves. Also, many of us have a lot of admiration and respect for our 'relatives' overseas, no matter how distant. It is sad that the feeling is rarely mutual. Hopefully, no American is trying to represent themselves as "just as Irish/Italian/Polish/etc" as an individual that is actually from that part of the world. To any American that does act that way, that is just silliness.
It's okay, David. You made it with love for your mom and are honest about it. You could have edited it and pretended it was fine. Even Claire isn't afraid to say she made a mistake, and it's all good! The first time I worked with mascarpone was a fail too, and it wasn't cheap! but it was still tasty, so I bet yours was too :)
I'm an Italian Jersey Girl trapped in the tumbleweeds of West Texas. You have no idea how much I needed this right now! Thank you! BTW--Your mom Rocks!!!
so when I did Claire's thing the coffee thing was runny and it eventually thickened up enough and worked fine. My cream also thickened in like a second and was way to thick with the mascarpone so I just added more cream so it became fluffier and didn't overmix before adding the coffee mixture. Your mixture looks like it separated before you even added the coffee mixture. Your mom is so nice, the Tiramisu looks so gross 🤭. And thanks for doing rainbow cookies right after Passover! It's a very Passover cookie since it has no flour...usually.
Everything looked so great in this video your baking skills have really come such a long way!! It’s a shame though you couldnt try the rainbow cookies with the strong almond flavoring they usually have- but it’s great you were able to at least make a version you could eat at all!
YAY MUM CAME BACK!! 🤗 💖 We've MISSED you Mum, it's great to see you again. And David, you are total gold on here! Your rapport with everyone you film with is just real and great. Chef kiss to you! Love you!
Ok, now I'm not joking: if you look close, you can note that panna cotta has the fewer ingredients, that's the better sweet! For the first "rainbow cookie" I don't think that's italian at all, maybe some changes in a traditional recipe? I've never seen anything like that!

I can vouch for the preppy kitchen tiramisu recipe it came out perfectly when I made it EXCEPT i oversoaked the lady fingers in the coffee so it came out way too soggy😩all the cream layers were perfect though!
When it comes to lineage etc, I think most people have a problem when anyone claims to be like Norwegian when it's their great great great great great great great great grandfather who was Norwegian. I've grown up in a Korean-Norwegian home, and "claiming" my Asian side has always been difficult due to racism etc. But there's a difference between me, a 50 % Korean person, whose mom has taught me about Korea and that culture, claiming to be Korean, and a person who is many times removed doing the same. What I have seen with some Americans, is that they fully claim to be whatever, lets say Scottish, but they don't really have any connection to Scotland, and the "culture" that they have grown up with is just merely a caricature of the actual culture. I don't know if any of that makes any sense, but that's the gist of it
Mascarpone is basically cream, so you may have already whipped the mascarpone to early butter stage. That's where the grainyness might come from if there isn't an additive. The thing with US Americans calling themselves "Italian" etc. instead of "Italian American" is that you don't live there, you often don't speak the language, and you are imposing yourselves on people that actually ARE Italian etc. It's like calling yourselves a cruise liner captain when you have been on one cruise as a tourist. At least learn the word "mascarpone", there is no "r" in the first syllable. ❤ You are US American and you can celebrate your culture if you want to, and that's a great thing.
I don't think that anyone would be offended or confused if you Americans said something like: my ancestors are from x or my heritage is x But most Americans are like I'm Italian or German or whatever and that makes us think that you actually live there, used to live there, speak the language or go there regularly. So it's just confusing. I did an exchange year in Texas and the amount of people who told me they are german... I would get so excited, asked from where in Germany they were from and started to speak in german just to find out that some ancestor about 5 generations back was german...
One tip for mixing stuff into batters with whipped eggwhites as the base. Take a little bit of the egg mixture and put it in a separate bowl, mix the dye into that small amount of batter super thoroughly, then drop and fold it into the main bowl. Mixing the dye with a small part first helps disperse the dye a lot easier. Learned that trick from Ann Reardan
omg i just found out David has albanian heritage?? i did not expect that at all. (ive been a fan of yours for over 5 years, and i also happen to be albanian so this is a pleasant surprise)
My son is only 2 but I can't wait to see him being embarassed by my mom-ness 🤶 Let me just say I always look forward to see you. There are too few content creators as sweet and as honest as you
I love your mom! Tiramisu is one of my favorite desserts as well. The fact that you made it for your mom makes it special. We moms are like that. I’m Italian too, as my great grandparents came from Turino (separately) in the late 1880s (Gr-grandma Mary) and early 1890s (Gr-grandpa John). They married in 1899, I think. The town my Grandpa grew up in in the UP of Michigan is still very Italian. When I went to Italy in 1992, I got a lesson in properly pronouncing my surname at a cambio in Florence. Never mind that all I wanted to do was cash a traveler’s check, but this guy wouldn’t give me my cash until I’d properly pronounced *both* Ns of the double N in the middle. (Made me wonder if they’d done that to Grandpa 15 years earlier when he and Grandma went to Italy to meet his cousins.) Interestingly, I didn’t get belittled for stating my heritage there. In fact, despite knowing I was American, I had people trying to speak to me in Italian or trying to teach it to me. I did get funny looks when I’d say my name and immediately spell it though.
Pride is an emotion that makes you feel better about yourself and sometimes at the expense of others. I've never understood this. I think people would be better to feel pride over the good things they themselves have done such as personal accomplishments or bettering the world. But that's not reality I get it.
9:30 The internet loves finding ways to get angry, my dude. It's fine to be proud of your heritage, and/or, at least, express interest in it. I am about as European of a mutt as you can get, and I can probably blame that on being a direct descendant of royalty on my mother's side and being a descendant of Vikings on my father's side.
rainbow cookies are supposed to be made with almond paste and almond extract...they are not rainbow cookies without these things!!! maybe thats why they were dull tasting and all you got was the jam
im pretty sure im the only one who is watching you from Kosovo which is a neighbor of albania and we are basicly the same,anyway if you happened to be around here hit me up bro... Paqe (peace in albanian)
I am sorry Stephen got sick from the raw beef! But us Germans, the French and Italians all have raw beef dishes, which are consumed regularly, even by children, and rarely anything ever happens! Our food seems to be much safer than the US food...
I am pretty sure ambracing your heritage is only offensive to other countries when you then proceed to completely mess up an 'authentic dish'. At least Europeans don't really care as far as I know
It's not offensive that Americans call themselves *insert nationality.* It's just dumb. For anyone. If you've never been to the country of your parents, or grand, or great-grandparents' origin, let alone not grow up there... You are an American. Whatever you think makes you an Italian, or Scotish... is just a bastardization of the original culture. Bits and pieces mixed in with predominantly American culture. And as far as I know, you are the only country that does it, too. You don't see Germans walking around here saying things like, "I'm quarter Czech on my grandfather's side." Kinda weird, a country so anti-racism-everything being so race-obsessed.
Unless someone he's met was born there I don't think you get to claim that. At some point you just become American (Besides people lie when immigrating all the time. Like maybe they were from Italy but their parents were from poland)
In one you hand you have "I barely mixed it" and in the other hand you have "it's too gritty." Like you're using the reason why it's bad as to why it should be good. Clearly neaded to break down the gritty parts you just don't know when if it's before you added the 2nd half or before.
Bro people from other countries who get mad cause an amercian says "I'm italian" or whatever nationality it may be need to stfu. American families often hold the culture of whatever country their family originally came from very close and associate heavily with that culture. It's a part of their identity. Things like the food they eat growing up, the people they surround themselves with, the music they listen to and often times the languages they speak are all heavily based on that culture. It feels invalidating to me to tell someone that their heritage doesn't matter because they weren't born in or don't still live in that original country where their family came from.
If they don't speak the language and have never been to the country of their heritage and neither their parents did, it's just weird for them to call themselves of that nationality. Just say you're American of such and such ancestry, because that's what you are.
You kinda have a point but I can't stand when Americans call themselves Latinos for example without being able to speak the language or not knowing anything about how life is in Latin American countries. Americans have told me I'm not latina because I'm white while I was born and raised in a latin American country and they where born and raised in the USA. I just hate when they use their heritage to justify ignorance.
Your mom is so pretty and sweet 🥹 I love the "I just made my own language" lol. Also everything looked delicious! I know marscapone can be really difficult to work with, and everybody else in the comments is saying that too. Don't be so hard on yourself, I think you're doing great! As somebody who's been watching your channel for a few years now, your progress is tangible and your effort is valid as hell 🫶🏼
Marscapone needs everything to be exactly room temperature. It anything is the slighted bit cold itll curdle like that. But if it's too warm it's overwhisked faster and curdles. I've found it to be super temperamental.
Yeah, it totes curdled here. A huge thing is you have to let the egg mixture cool. If it's warm at all when you add it to the Mascarpone it will curdle. I've had the best luck making sure everything is cool, and the Mascarpone cold. Whip the cream separately, and beat the cold Mascarpone just enough to loosen it up. Then fold the cold whipped cream and cooled egg mixture in by hand, in thirds maybe, until just combined. It will still taste good if it curdles, but you get a grainy texture due to the fat separation, and a greasy coating in your mouth as it melts (in case anyone happening by was wondering.)
You look like your mom :) It's nice to see her again on your channel. I enjoy Vincenzo's channel and it was cool to see you try his recipe. I believe that Pasta Grammar made that one as well and assume the ingredients and preparation are the same. Eva makes lots of interesting Italian dishes on that channel that I have never heard of but look delicious.
Sorry for speaking on behalf of all Europeans but this is my take: We don't get offended if you actually explore and appreciate the culture of the country. What usually annoys us is y'all being like "I'm Irish" and not being able to tell anything more besides stereotypes. If you want to be a part of the culture and acutally appreciate your heritage then please do your research from people living in the country. We all are lucky enough to have an access to the internet and you guys are lucky enough that most Europeans are either fluent in English or good enough to communicate on some lvl with you, so gathering any information you need is extremly simple
@@scandisnowgirl3696 It's not about gate keeping, just be real with yourself. How can you call yourself some sort of nationality when you don't know shit about it's culture? Just cause you are 5% Irish doesn't make you Irish. We all have some % of other nations but we don't claim them as much as Americans do. Tho call yourself whatever you want but don't be suprised when someone calls you out on repeating a bs stereotype or will try to make a conversation with you in the language you claim to be a part of your identity
@@ThereAlright stop saying you. I don’t have a need to do the behaviour you’re talking about but I’m saying that the behaviour YOURE exhibiting comes off as very arrogant and bullying.
@@scandisnowgirl3696 My "you" is a generalization. It's also an opinion and you are free to disagree with it. If you feel offended by an opion then it's not my problem. Especially that I was respectful and gave alternatives to how you can explore cultures. I believe that behavoiur such as repeating stereotypes is arrogant but we can agree to disagree :)
@@annbrookens945 id be the annoying friend with the thermometer every time anyone cooks! im already super careful but i think it would change me fundamentally XD
regarding Americans acknowledging their ancestry, I've only ever heard of this being an issue with Americans 500 times removed from the last family member being born in Ireland cause they tend to try to tell actual Irish that they're wrong lolol, as an Australian I always thought American Italians were a real thing, especially in New York cause you know the mob haha Hope everything's still good with you and Steven and if it's not well we're here for you David always were and always will be
Nah NY Italians had 1 Italian family member like 200+ years ago and have made it their entire identity when in actuality they are just from Brooklyn or wherever
I feel like if you speak/understand the language (more than just a few words) and/or still make and eat the food on the regular, people can call themselves 'whatever it is' americans. it's closer to the culture than the people that claim they are 'whatever' but the only hint of it is by dna.

I'm just now realizing how much I missed your mom😭
She’s so pretty ❤
mama seymour is the best!
I love your mom! Tiramisu is one of my favorite desserts as well. The fact that you made it for your mom makes it special. We moms are like that.
I’m Italian too, as my great grandparents came from Turino (separately) in the late 1880s (Gr-grandma Mary) and early 1890s (Gr-grandpa John). They married in 1899, I think. The town my Grandpa grew up in in the UP of Michigan is still very Italian.
When I went to Italy in 1992, I got a lesson in properly pronouncing my surname at a cambio in Florence. Never mind that all I wanted to do was cash a traveler’s check, but this guy wouldn’t give me my cash until I’d properly pronounced *both* Ns of the double N in the middle. (Made me wonder if they’d done that to Grandpa 15 years earlier when he and Grandma went to Italy to meet his cousins.) Interestingly, I didn’t get belittled for stating my heritage there. In fact, despite knowing I was American, I had people trying to speak to me in Italian or trying to teach it to me. I did get funny looks when I’d say my name and immediately spell it though.
Pride is an emotion that makes you feel better about yourself and sometimes at the expense of others. I've never understood this. I think people would be better to feel pride over the good things they themselves have done such as personal accomplishments or bettering the world. But that's not reality I get it.
Great video David
You can say you are decent from Italians. That’s what we do in Argentina
Your Mom is gorgeous and so sweet!
So “I don’t speak the language, I’ve never been to Italy” and you wonder why people are confused when you call yourself Italian. 😂
Well I like mine with almond paste
Make more Claire saffitz dessertssss lol EVERYTHING IN HER BOOKS🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
What I'd like to se more of? More Mama! :)

The internet loves finding ways to get angry, my dude. It's fine to be proud of your heritage, and/or, at least, express interest in it. I am about as European of a mutt as you can get, and I can probably blame that on being a direct descendant of royalty on my mother's side and being a descendant of Vikings on my father's side.
Try Indian desserts next
You look so much like your mom. It's cute.
Hi david :3
how r u today!!
Great! How about yourself
@@DavidSeymourOfficial awesome! thank you!!
~ PS your mom is awesome (and so are you)
Reggae cookies ... ya mahn
She definitely reminds me of the mom from Rizzoli and isles.
Did you say we were consuming raw, WORMY, beefy products??? As in the raw ground beef episode? :o
Red yellow and green…..Rasta cookies
such a nice pretty mother.💓
Your mom is so cool bro, you need to feature her more....
Your mom is so beautiful 👏
rainbow cookies are supposed to be made with almond paste and almond extract...they are not rainbow cookies without these things!!! maybe thats why they were dull tasting and all you got was the jam
im pretty sure im the only one who is watching you from Kosovo which is a neighbor of albania and we are basicly the same,anyway
if you happened to be around here hit me up bro...
Paqe (peace in albanian)
Her genes are strong. Lmao. The synchronized bite was cherry on the top.
I did not need to see that girl with a straw on the toilet 😭
I am sorry Stephen got sick from the raw beef! But us Germans, the French and Italians all have raw beef dishes, which are consumed regularly, even by children, and rarely anything ever happens!
Our food seems to be much safer than the US food...
Do the actual Italians in Italy get mad, or like everything else in this country are people from here offended on behalf of those actually in Italy?
I've had some flavorless and dry rainbow cookies in the past. Throw them directly in the trash.
You need your ingredients at ROOM TEMP before mixing!!!!!!
I am pretty sure ambracing your heritage is only offensive to other countries when you then proceed to completely mess up an 'authentic dish'. At least Europeans don't really care as far as I know
🤌🤌🤌🤌🤌🤌
This is the only Tiramisu video you should need: ruclips.net/video/XXirNdodlX0/видео.html
Feed mom more often
I will say Italian americans really use them being Italian or having Italian ancestry as their main personality trait lol
It's not offensive that Americans call themselves *insert nationality.*
It's just dumb. For anyone.
If you've never been to the country of your parents, or grand, or great-grandparents' origin, let alone not grow up there... You are an American. Whatever you think makes you an Italian, or Scotish... is just a bastardization of the original culture. Bits and pieces mixed in with predominantly American culture.
And as far as I know, you are the only country that does it, too. You don't see Germans walking around here saying things like, "I'm quarter Czech on my grandfather's side."
Kinda weird, a country so anti-racism-everything being so race-obsessed.
You ARE Italian; Italian American. Everything looked good, and I'm sure the tiramisu filling was rich and delicious.
Unless someone he's met was born there I don't think you get to claim that. At some point you just become American (Besides people lie when immigrating all the time. Like maybe they were from Italy but their parents were from poland)
Italian American =/= Italian
how am i so early bruhhh
idk but respect
Your mom is a baddy confirmed.
Just say you're of Italian descent or Italian American.
In one you hand you have "I barely mixed it" and in the other hand you have "it's too gritty." Like you're using the reason why it's bad as to why it should be good. Clearly neaded to break down the gritty parts you just don't know when if it's before you added the 2nd half or before.
How annoying that people undermine David's heritage. You do you boo.
Okay your mom is Italian, I don't think you get to claim it. That's kinda where I draw the line at the 3rd generation in a country.
Bro people from other countries who get mad cause an amercian says "I'm italian" or whatever nationality it may be need to stfu. American families often hold the culture of whatever country their family originally came from very close and associate heavily with that culture. It's a part of their identity. Things like the food they eat growing up, the people they surround themselves with, the music they listen to and often times the languages they speak are all heavily based on that culture. It feels invalidating to me to tell someone that their heritage doesn't matter because they weren't born in or don't still live in that original country where their family came from.
If they don't speak the language and have never been to the country of their heritage and neither their parents did, it's just weird for them to call themselves of that nationality. Just say you're American of such and such ancestry, because that's what you are.
You kinda have a point but I can't stand when Americans call themselves Latinos for example without being able to speak the language or not knowing anything about how life is in Latin American countries. Americans have told me I'm not latina because I'm white while I was born and raised in a latin American country and they where born and raised in the USA. I just hate when they use their heritage to justify ignorance.
Your mom is so pretty and sweet 🥹 I love the "I just made my own language" lol. Also everything looked delicious! I know marscapone can be really difficult to work with, and everybody else in the comments is saying that too. Don't be so hard on yourself, I think you're doing great! As somebody who's been watching your channel for a few years now, your progress is tangible and your effort is valid as hell 🫶🏼
Holy shit she's 62???? She looks young!
Marscapone needs everything to be exactly room temperature. It anything is the slighted bit cold itll curdle like that. But if it's too warm it's overwhisked faster and curdles. I've found it to be super temperamental.
Yeah, it totes curdled here. A huge thing is you have to let the egg mixture cool. If it's warm at all when you add it to the Mascarpone it will curdle.
I've had the best luck making sure everything is cool, and the Mascarpone cold. Whip the cream separately, and beat the cold Mascarpone just enough to loosen it up. Then fold the cold whipped cream and cooled egg mixture in by hand, in thirds maybe, until just combined.
It will still taste good if it curdles, but you get a grainy texture due to the fat separation, and a greasy coating in your mouth as it melts (in case anyone happening by was wondering.)
And incorporate the mascarpone little by little
Thanks for that was useful
It is MAScarpone, there is no candy bar in it. ❤
Damn Mascarpone is so freaking sensitive
YES! A return of the Queen of Baking! Love you David and thanks for this!
You look like your mom :) It's nice to see her again on your channel. I enjoy Vincenzo's channel and it was cool to see you try his recipe. I believe that Pasta Grammar made that one as well and assume the ingredients and preparation are the same. Eva makes lots of interesting Italian dishes on that channel that I have never heard of but look delicious.
You and your mom look so much alike! She is a beautiful woman
Sorry for speaking on behalf of all Europeans but this is my take: We don't get offended if you actually explore and appreciate the culture of the country. What usually annoys us is y'all being like "I'm Irish" and not being able to tell anything more besides stereotypes. If you want to be a part of the culture and acutally appreciate your heritage then please do your research from people living in the country. We all are lucky enough to have an access to the internet and you guys are lucky enough that most Europeans are either fluent in English or good enough to communicate on some lvl with you, so gathering any information you need is extremly simple
I don't know about other europeans. But YES, exactly this
Here’s my take as an immigrant living in an European country: get over yourselves and stop gate keeping.
@@scandisnowgirl3696 It's not about gate keeping, just be real with yourself. How can you call yourself some sort of nationality when you don't know shit about it's culture? Just cause you are 5% Irish doesn't make you Irish. We all have some % of other nations but we don't claim them as much as Americans do. Tho call yourself whatever you want but don't be suprised when someone calls you out on repeating a bs stereotype or will try to make a conversation with you in the language you claim to be a part of your identity
@@ThereAlright stop saying you. I don’t have a need to do the behaviour you’re talking about but I’m saying that the behaviour YOURE exhibiting comes off as very arrogant and bullying.
@@scandisnowgirl3696 My "you" is a generalization. It's also an opinion and you are free to disagree with it. If you feel offended by an opion then it's not my problem. Especially that I was respectful and gave alternatives to how you can explore cultures. I believe that behavoiur such as repeating stereotypes is arrogant but we can agree to disagree :)
I love that for 3 videos he's voiced how upset he is about the raw beef he ate. I wonder how long he'll keep it going haha
If it was me, I'd be talking about it for a loooonnnnng time!
@@annbrookens945 id be the annoying friend with the thermometer every time anyone cooks! im already super careful but i think it would change me fundamentally XD
regarding Americans acknowledging their ancestry, I've only ever heard of this being an issue with Americans 500 times removed from the last family member being born in Ireland cause they tend to try to tell actual Irish that they're wrong lolol, as an Australian I always thought American Italians were a real thing, especially in New York cause you know the mob haha
Hope everything's still good with you and Steven and if it's not well we're here for you David always were and always will be
Nah NY Italians had 1 Italian family member like 200+ years ago and have made it their entire identity when in actuality they are just from Brooklyn or wherever
@@NoThankUBeQuiet I’m happy to believe an American over me any day cause what do I know lol nothing other than the stereotypes and they’re often wrong
@@NoThankUBeQuietmost Italians came here way less than 200+ years ago.
I feel like if you speak/understand the language (more than just a few words) and/or still make and eat the food on the regular, people can call themselves 'whatever it is' americans. it's closer to the culture than the people that claim they are 'whatever' but the only hint of it is by dna.
@@PapeySapote I was going to say most modern italians are 3rd/4th generation italian
So nice to see your mom! You look so much like her. Sweet of you to try a recipe because it's her favorite. ❤
Only thing missing from having your mom try the tiramisu was that it should have been served on your"David" plate you made in pre-k! Happy Birthday mother Seymour
