best method ever, it's so hard to roll meatballs while some are frying at the same time and u gotta rush because u need to flip them so they don't burn and stick to the pan and fall apart when prying them up, now I'll just take my time and plop raw meatballs into my gravy and cook the sausages later on the pan or maybe throw them into the gravy raw too
@natalinasflavoursofItalyАй бұрын
I brown my sausage in oliveoil, then onions, then add tomatoe passatta, then add meatballs once the sauce comes to boil. Both will cook in the sauce while it thickens. . finish with salt, peperoncino, basil

Fabulous presentation here. You did a great job in explaining the how's and why's of each step which makes it easy to follow. Loved the background info about the Napolitan pizza requirements. My first attempt at pizza dough was a textbook disaster, having followed one of Vito's recipes, but I missed enough info about the process that led to massive mistakes. The pizza's were okay, but the dough was unmanageable, with the consistency of a thick slime. Not giving up though, we're going to try it again! ps this is the first tutorial I've seen where yeast is added a second time together with the poolish.

"These need to be processed". How?what? "These have been cooking a while". Ten minutes? Thirty minutes? An hour? Give an absolute beginner a little tiny clue.
@natalinasflavoursofItalyАй бұрын
If you watch the video in it's entirety you will see I mentioned a few times... you need to follow the jar manufacturers instructions on processing the jars...also in the drop down description. Cooking time depends on the tomatoes... as mentioned you are releasing the water. Some crops have more water than others depending on how wet a season it was. Also cook time depends on how big a pot, how thick the base is, temperature ,,how many tomatoes you have etc... trial and error my friend!

Hi, Can you use Semola flour with egg pasta recipes? Or what is the best flour for homemade Spaghetti & Fettuccine? Google just mainly gives Semolina information. Thanks
@natalinasflavoursofItaly4 ай бұрын
Yes you can. There are as many pasta recipes as there are Italians! In my travels to Italy i have seen for different pastas...straight semola and water/ semola, 00, eggs and water/ water, semola and 00.... (no eggs) ...I have seen semola, water and a bit of whole grain flour and water. Plus some have salt, some have olive oil ...some do not. The combinations are endless. My fettuccine recipe and video instructions , adapted from my Calabrese mother , is in our Online Classic Italian Online Cooking Program . It is all-purpose flour or 00, eggs, water, olive oil and salt. www.natalinaskitchen.com/online-school/ Personally I like that combination for fettuccine as it is lighter than semola and egg recipes.

I'm not here to hate, but isn't 24 hours a lot of time for the poolish to rest?? I've tried it before, and my poolish became sour and had no yeast activity. Also, 70-80% hydration is a lot!!! XD I believe the recommended amount of hydration for neapolitan pizza is 55 - 62%. Otherwise, everything you do is amazing👏
@natalinasflavoursofItaly5 ай бұрын
Your room temperature is likely too warm. My room temperature is around 20-21 degrees Celsius... there are a lot of variables here. I am not a pizzaiolo ...I am an Italian cooking instructor that was not working during the Pandemic and produced this course for beginners. If you calculate the hydration on this recipe it's actually not that high. What everyone forgets here is everyone's flour, temperature, oven etc are different so you have to make a pizza dough tons of times to see what works best with what YOU have available. It's not a 1 recipe works well for everyone. It takes a very long time to perfect a good pizza dough with what YOUhave. So it's not for lazy cooks... it's hours and hours of work... failed attempts and then awesome results. There are lots of professional pizzaiolo videos out there...happy pizza making!
