- This week we’re back on the beautiful Island of Ischia, just off Naples, where Carmela lives. Her pasta, though, is from her home region of Puglia. We had such fun exploring the area, and if you’re curious, you can check out our adventures over on the Pasta Grannies Club (link below). Carmela’s vegetable garden was something else - the produce was next level. She has a lot of customers who can confirm this. She’s all about that homegrown goodness, and it really makes a difference. This is her recipe:
For the sauce
1 onion
2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
750ml passata
salt
For the dough
300g durum wheat flour
a pinch of salt
150ml warm water
some pecorino cheese, or cacioricotta, to serve.

Thank you Vicky and the whole PG team for this weekly dose of wholesome escapism, a reprieve from the chaos we're all living in lately.
It's so anxious making, isn't it. I'm glad PG gives you a lift! best wishes, Vicky
This is really an amazing woman. I love her way of cooking from scratch with her own produce.
Carmela’s garden is wonderful! “My hands don’t work like they used to.” She proceeds to expertly make the dough and the pasta with ease. Thank you for another great episode!
Thank you Scott!
Just want to say some friends and I are having a Pasta Grannies dinner party. We are deciding which recipe to make, and will make it for our friends.
Thats a wonderful idea ! I wish you many more great Pasta Grannies dinner parties.
What a great idea!👍🥰
Oh yes what a special idea, I'd like to copy that here in NSW Australia!! will let you know how it goes. Thank you Grannies, Vicky and Team
@@rl6456 that’s fantastic!
How fun!!🎉❤
Carmella is a delight and those cavatielli looked so delicious. She wasn’t kidding when she said she was using a fresh sauce…the passatta was made the day before! Can’t get much fresher than that! TFS, Sharon! 🤗♥️🍝
Such a beautiful smile! Thank you, Pasta Grannies. Yet another wonderful episode.
Glad you enjoyed it! best wishes, Vicky
I had cavatelli for my wedding. This bought back memories.
Carmela's marvelous smile is very heartwarming. And her cooking looks delicious.
We agree! best wishes, Vicky
The wonderful smile of Carmela is so hearthwarming. Thank you for another wonderful recipe and granny. I feel like I am in Italy when I watch your videos.
I'm glad you enjoyed her episode! best wishes, Vicky
Brava Carmela! It never gets old to watch these wonderful ladies doing their magic in the kitchen❤. I can't help but see my own mother who was an excelent Italian cook!😊
It may be a simple dish but it's one of my favorite comfort foods. Such a beautiful place to live. Thanks Vicky & Pasta Grannies!!❤❤❤
Thank you!
Cavitelli, my all time pasta, she reminds me of my beloved mother
What a sweet nonna! And the pasta, all fresh from her garden!❤
Thank-you again for bringing Nonna Carmela, she reminds me of my mother using those same metal sticks to make fusilli. Living on Ischia is a world apart. Buonissimi cavatielli. 🥰🥰🥰😋😋😋
❤
Yay!! Thank you, Pasta Grannies & Carmela! Love cavatelli!
Her veggies stand 😍 I’d buy from her.
We'd do too!
Fantastic! Using an umbrella rod to make those is genius! 😍
What a beautiful garden! Those huge, strong basil bushes are a dream! And the door sale is just awesome! Love it!♥Thank you so much for an amazing video! Grazie! ♥
Thank you x
Che bella! Entrambe l'isola e la nonna Carmela ❤ Ischia è un posto di dove voglio visitare.
Ischia is beautiful ❤
Would kill for a garden like that! 😂❤
I love her cheeky little smile as she puts the basil on the finished dish. Are there a lot of 'doorstop farmers' on her street? I find the whole concept fascinating.
They are quite common in the south and in small villages :)
All is perfect!!! Support from Florence! 🇮🇹✔️
How I would love to be Carmela's neighbour, what amazing produce! and a fantastic pasta dish as well, what more could we want! Thank you everybody. Ramon. x
Hi Ramon, it'd be great x
Delicious I bet!! Thank you for sharing!!! ♥️
My grandmother immigrated to the USA from the Abruzzo region. Her cavatelli recipe uses eggs & ricotta. Most recipes do not. But, we always use her recipe on her original machine. I’m now the proud owner of the machine & will always use her recipe! They are so light & delicious.
hi Michelle, how interesting. Does the dough include ricotta as well as the egg? And where in Abruzzo, I'll have to go and investgate! Thank you for sharing your memory and long may your 'macchina' be used. best wishes, Vicky
my Nonni who immigrated to NJ USA and my dad and uncles etc. make this type of pasta with the ferro but its call fusilli or fusidd' in dialect. just water and flour like Carmela. it was always all of us grandchildrens favorite as my Nonna made it every holiday. I have tried to duplicate the taste of her sauce as well and have never been able to.
Good job Carmella. The food looks great but your smiling eyes look better. 👍🏻👏👏
So true, Mark! best wishes, Vicky
Best and most Sweet show ever❤
Thank you! x
Hvala!Serbia🖐
I cannot imagine why not one manufacturer in Italy has not gotten wise to the fact. That there need to manufacture a tool to make this specific type pasta. All the nonnas have had to use their own resources. Which is brilliant but really where are the Italian manufacturers. 😅😅😅.
She reminds me of my Nonna she had a bit of land when we grew up in France. We would tag along with her to get our vegetables. These were beautiful and brilliant times. Imagine going to the fort and getting those beautiful vegetables. Now that’s organic ❤🍆🥕🥒🥔🍆
you can purchase look for "ferro" or "ferretto" they sell in many Italian specialty kitchen stores and maybe even some mainstream online shops.
Beautiful
Grazia Nonna. Heart warming
🇧🇷 Brazil is on 🇧🇷
Carmela the cutie 🧡❤️ looks delicious.
Awsome ❤😊
I wish I could buy my produce from local growers, door to door.
Yum!
How does Carmela keep the famous Ischia rabbits out of her beautiful garden?
hi Christine, hmm, good question. Her veg garden is fenced. Traditionally the rabbits were kept in special burrows from which they couldn't escape; but I haven't investigated whether this still happens, mostly because some viewers get upset with the thought of eating them and so I limit how often we do a video about them! best wishes, Vicky
If the rest of the world was like our pasta grannies, we'd all be better off.
When will Pasta Grannies do sheep's head cooking?
Yes! I'm Italian, and as a child, this was a treat for me! I'm calling my local butcher to see if I can get some to make at home! P.S. I love Pasta Grannies!
Bravo Carela 👍👍👍👍👍👍😘😘🥰🥰
Nice meal
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Lovely lady.
Did Carmela add Basil to her sauce?
Not to the sauce, just at the end :)
