Chef Pasquale, you always make me remember my Grandmother. I was so blessed to grow up in the same house as her. She used to make dough every Friday, for pizza and spinach pie. Have you ever made spinach pie with sausage, potatoes, spinach, onions, and capers? She was Sicilian and every time she made that all the neighbors seemed to know. Even the poor Irish kids who grew up on boiled meat loved it, they happened to be my cousins, but they were OK. Really miss her and all the great things she made, like the Struffoli, and a lot of the things I see on your channel. You are a precious soul. Thanks for keeping these creations alive.
My Sicilian Nonna who spoke no English, made theseevery Christmas but she did not cut them into regular squares. She just dipped a teaspoon into the bowl with the raw dough in it and dropped it into hot oil. They came out all irregular shaped - delightfully playful! Then she after cooling, she sprinkled powder sugar over them and placed a bowl of honey next to them. We took one but hand and dipped it into the honey and ate them. So delicious!
My mom was from Calabria and used to make these during the holiday season. I miss them so much-they are out of this world delicious-she made them with red wine instead of anisette. Glad I found the recipe for them!! Thank you
You brought me to tears watching this. I miss my grandparents so much, and listening to you talk was exactly how they did. They were funny, yet serious, gentle, yet tough. They always had this on the table for get together so after dinner with the espresso.
Struffoli reminds me of my (late) grandmother! She made this every Christmas. How I miss those days. Struffoli is my favorite! I will definitely have to make this again soon. Thanks for your video. I love your instructions, substitutions and your cute accent! You remind me of my (late) grandfather. Your videos always make me smile. :-)
Pasquale.. happy new year .. love you and your show.. I studied cooking in France and Spain in the early 80s been a chef for over 35 plus years and still learning .. you are a great teacher of passion.. huge hug and kiss my friend
This one is FANTASTIC! Don't be afraid to use the full amount of anisette or even a bit more. I used less honey and sugar to coat them with and there was still plenty. EDIT: Try adding a bit of fresh squeezed lemon juice on top of the pile after they get coated with the honey. 👍🏻
Thank you so much for not using a food processor! I hadn’t made it in decades and I couldn’t remember how. Your detail makes me believe I can do it again! When I was a kid, we couldn’t touch it until Christmas Eve, and it would drive us crazy with anticipation. Now I have the same feeling, just looking at yours.
This looks like a great old recipe from the old country, would love to try it I have never had it. Wonderful, thank you and I love seeing your bloopers .
Brings back so many memories! I have not had these for such a long time. I will have to try and make them next Christmas. Thank you and have a blessed New Year!
Phyllis A Reilly Yeah! We call them porceddhruzzi in the South of Italy and used to eat them every Christmas, handmade by la nonna of course! Ciaoooooo from the ITALIAN FOOD BOSS 💪💪🇮🇹🇮🇹
12 large skewers of spiedini alla Siciliana in the freezer right now for New Year's to keep my family's tradition going. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and Salute!
Whoooooooooooo!!! Thank you thank you!! I have been looking for this recipe for years!!!! You get spoiled on something THEN you move and someone else doesn’t make this the way I remember it.❤️🌈🙏
Merry Christmas Pasquale.. and a happy New Year to you and la familia.. my grandmother Giavaninna from Sicily, used to make this for Christmas, she would have little chunks of chocolate bits around it, was one of my favorite treats at her house during the holidays. Thank you for sharing...
Happy New Year to you and your family! Thank you for another wonderful recipe. I enjoy watching you on the tube and thanks for sharing your talent as a great cook! Looking forward to more recipe videos in 2020. Cin cin from New York!
I made this for my family at xmas time, everyone loved them. I even used melted semi sweet chocolate drizzle on a batch, but it's not struffoli if you change it lol
I always say this, Pasquale is the best Italian chef on you tube, i always mention Lidia Bistanich & Nick Stellino, i have found 2 more as i am 56, but recently retired ( i did not have the time or knowledge to find these as i worked many hours everyday) & the sites are Gennaro's( may be listed under chef Jamie Oliver) & the pasta grannies, all have great Italian recipes if you like Italian food & are looking for great Italian recipes & variety. I like this recipe , but i am diabetic , but can indulge in small amounts once in a while. God bless everyone, & Happy New Year to all, Amen.
I learnt a new word for a refridgerator yesterday, they called it a «ref». Now that is a lot easier to say than refridgerator, that’s for sure❗️ So, put your dough in the ref❗️☺️👏✌️
Merry Christmas and a Happy, Healthy new year Chef Pasquale from the great state of Maine. Love all your videos. They bring me back to my youth and my Italian grandparents❣️
I hope everyone here had a very Merry Christmas 🍷 Cin Cin Chef and family 💃💋👍🏼 Loves from Carlsbad CA (currently) 🌴🏄🏼♀️🏖☀️ I love those beautiful bowls I always forget to mention 👊🏼
If you use 1/4 honey to 3/4 sugar your struffoli will be less sticky because if will form a harder shell on the dough. Also don't use salt in the dough because it toughens the dough.
Hope you had a Merry Christmas and wishing you a Happy New Year from South Jersey. Just love your channel and all the recipes from my childhood years, brings back great memories of times gone by.
Grazie, Chef Pasquale!! Struffoli was always my favorite!! I'm trying to keep my Italian traditions alive and pass them on to my children. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!🤗 🇮🇹 PS- Can you make Paste e Patate? My Nana used to make it for me all the time sadly I never got the recipe before she passed...❤
Jillian Faith make a sauce with two cans 8 Oz tomato sauce and chopped garlic olive oil two potatoes diced now add two cans water tablespoon of salt and black pepper add some parsley at the end .you can add broken up spaghetti or the mixed pasta in the bag or medium or small shells pasta did she boil the pasta separately or in the sauce ? We add it to the pasta con patate so add one extra cup or 2 of water Let it boil add pasta while the potatoes are al dente they will cook all together . And put parmigiana cheese or pecorino.
@@kiwisiwi8356 OMG THANK YOU!!!! I'm pretty she added either pepperoni or pancetta. Soooooo good!! 💖💖💖 I'm going to make it soon, I'll let you know how it turns out 🤗
Omg great recipe 👍👍👏👏👏 in Mexico cols sorongos now I know how to make it thank you 🙏 so so much I love love your food recipe 👍👍😋😋😋 congratulations on your Chanel 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Mom made these from dad's family recipe (they spent serious time after the wedding teaching her the family recipes). I wasn't a huge fan, but maybe a glass of grappa would make a difference?
Ciao Nonno Pasquale! Are you making lentils for New Years? I think I'm going to try to make them for friends this year. Have a wonderful New Year! Salute to your health ♥️
I remember making Struffoli with my Mom when I was little..we would roll & cut the balls..she would fry them and have the pot of hot honey to put them in...we would add the confetti and add colored almonds & citrons..my nonna added these short white stick candies..they might have had a slight chocolate in them..did they also add a fizz when you ate them?.do you know what those are Pasquale? My Nonna also made the long strips of dough and fried and they would all be twisted..

For 60 years, this is my favorite Christmas desert. My grandmother made these and bow ties too. These bring back such wonderful childhood memories.
Have made these for years and love them! It is even more delicious if you grate some orange rind in the honey mixture!
I would love to spend the day in the kitchen with this gentleman.
The rich culture, the family, the food as colorful and beautiful as the people who make it. Italy you truly are my heart.

Chef Pasquale, thank you fir so many wonderful recipes. I notice you have a large bread board. Can you say where you were able to get that?
Great family memories. Thank you so much. Do I have to use peanut out? What else could I use.
They are excellent, would adding a bit of baking powder make them a little softer?
