  • What better gift than handmade tortellini? That's what 97 year old Albertina gives her family for Christmas. Pasta Grannies met her a few days before, busy making pasta pretty much the same way she's done for 90 years of her life. These days she uses a pasta machine and finds a freezer convenient.
    Her tortellini filling is 200g mortadella, 200g prosciutto, 200g pork loin and 200g 30-month Parmigiano, nutmeg, salt
    Her meat stock uses beef shin, chicken, celery, carrot and onion.

    I miss my nonna su much. She was from Ferrara and i grow up making tortellini with her. She used to prank my nonno by filling a tortellino with a raw garlic piece. Sunday was a special day. I miss you nonna.

    My Grandma's specialty were tiny tortellini that she wrapped around her little finger (pinkie). She made the last batch (for 12 people) three days before she died, aged 96. They were always served in broth.

  • @amgemin
    @amgemin 5 лет назад +32

    Thank you Vicki, your channel is wonderful. La signora Albertina makes tortellini that look so much like the ones my Bolognese grandmother used to make, although the filling of my family's recipe contains (I believe) more ingredients, and we keep passing on a contraption (that my grandfather made), to cut the pasta into circles instead of squares, which makes tortellini a little less pointy. I also want to say to all the unlucky who haven't ever tasted tortellini fatti in casa like these ones, forget the notion of tortellini that you might already have, perhaps from a restaurant or store bought. Everything, from the taste, the consistency, the aromatic flavour of the spices, puts this dish on a class of its own. This is, truly, a meal for the Gods.
