This came out 2 years ago. I hope she's still going strong and making her wonderful cannoli

[@knitter4years]

Clara's recipe is genius and more than 100 years old. I haven't seen one like it and these are the tips this pro shared that revealed how to make her traditional cannoli that are outstanding: 1. Clara uses a large cutter for her cannoli. Most recipes use very small cutters and make cannolis less than 2 inches long or so. 2. After Clara lays the bamboo form on the dough, she dabs water just to the center of the dough where it will join together. The only part of the dough she connects is the very center. Because she uses a large cutter the bulk of the cannoli flares out on either side. That allows her to fill the cannoli with a knife, so there is no need for a pastry tube to fill the cannoli. Most recipes seal the cannoli dough all the way down the tube. 3. Clara's recipe uses only a few ingredients in both the shells and the filling. This lets the flavor of the high quality ingredients shine. She uses a natural lard, natural vinegar, a little sugar, and flour in the dough. Most recipes also add one or more of egg/yolk, marsala, cocoa powder, cinnamon to the shells. 4. Her filling is just whole milk ricotta and a bit of granulated sugar. Most recipes add vanilla, glaceed fruit, and have instructions to drain the ricotta over night in a sieve in the refrigerator. Or they say to squeeze out the ricotta in a cheese cloth to remove liquid. Removing liquid from the ricotta in most recipes is to help keep the cannoli shell crisp. Clara avoids all the complicated steps by mixing a litte plain granulated sugar into the ricotta and pressing it through a sieve. Ricotta is a lot like cottage cheese, in that it's milk curds (straight protein), in some cream or milk. By pressing the ricotta through the sieve, she is breaking up the curds (protein), which are much drier. This process gives the curds a larger surface area which increases their ratio to the liquid, (cream or milk) in the ricotta, effectively creating a drier filling. As Ben Richey commented beautifully, I quote, 'Clara got this recipe 70 years ago from a woman who was 90 at the time. This recipe is a living connection to 1860. Thank you so much Clara and Pasta Grannies for preserving these connections!' I wholeheartedly concur. I am thrilled to have this recipe.

[@rl1111rl]

I had to sift thru a hundred or so comments to find yours - which is about the recipe itself. Thank you. Did you actually make it? I tried another recipe from Italia Squisita that was terrible. They were not clear or incorrect about ingredients, weight, or the process but the end result was a terrible cannolo shell.

[@ryanweliver565]

I followed the recipe and I don't think that the woman narrating gave proper measurements. Obviously the wonderful woman cooking is a master cannoli maker. But I followed the shell recipe to the t only to have the shell fall apart in the oil and turn to dust.

I was looking for this 😅

No kidding, this brought tears to my eyes. Clara is so sweet, from the way she makes her own bamboo sticks to the way she cooks and talks loudly and looks behind the camera hahah belissima!

We should all live to 93 to make Clara's canoli recipe. Bless her sweet heart. You can tell that woman worked hard in the kitchen all her life and loves food and her family.

Brava Nonna Clara! If She made those cannoli in a different pot...they wouldn't taste so Good! Grazie Nanna!

[@joshooahveeaygahs7651]

All the nona on this channel are so beautiful and their recipes look so delicious! Reminds me of my grandma so much!

[@angrybees8122]

She’s an inspiration

[@girasolemreeves1063]

She is absolutely precious. She reminds me of my nonna in Calabria. She had a similar way of making her Cannoli, I have the homemade wooden rods that she wrapped the Cannoli pastry dough around before deep frying. I can still remember the wonderful smell in her rustic kitchen. My nonna also had beautiful blue eyes just like Clara. Thank you for such a wonderful video.

When the pot looks like that, you know it's gonna be good food!:)

[@jennyoyster5054]

Awhhhy, I just love the elderly. So old and full of wisdom. She’s just a gorgeous woman. I would love if she cooked for me.

Amazing! Adore this channel, so much love from this awesome grannies!

[@genevieveis2838]

These granny's are amazing... I love these...⚜️🥀🙏

[@darthlaurel]

Very interesting about the bamboo.

[@alec984]

Cannolo is slang form of diminutive for of "canna" which in Italian mean "reed". Bamboo plants don't grow up in Italy/Mediterranean area.

[@vbrotherita]

@@alec984 Cane plants can grow in southern Italy and they do.

[@alec984]

@@vbrotherita lo so, crescono anche dalle mie parti, in italia centrale. il bamboo è un'altra cosa rispetto alle nostre canne (comuni o di palude) anche se appartengono alla stessa famiglia.

[@carollarose584]

I was crying!!! Reminded me of my mom and grandmother!! I love this thank you!

[@dukemd69]

Yeah, me too...and I've watched it 6 times.....not only for the recipe, but to remind me of this inspiring way of living.

[@salishseaquest7952]

Why do I get so hungry every time I watch Pasta Grannies??? I can only wish I was there!

[@Sometimes_Always]

I had the biggest smile on my face watching this.. How many generations of family have had the joy of sharing that same dish.. Such a wonderful moment that we got to experience a small part of that.

[@patcallano8639]

Wow this is beautiful. I just doscovered this channel recently and I'm loving the videos. Thank you.

[@sylviacrawford7195]

There had to be something to bring Italien - My friends mother and aunts all reached into their late 90s some are still living in Vermont, they were of Italien decent from this area and always treasured food and life style from the old country. I love Clara what a beautiful delightful enchantment - may she live forever... thank you for sharing

[@sorchaogle2246]

Montalbano is a favourite TV show in many countries including the UK. It was a touching moment when the death of the actor (and therefore the character) playing Doctor Pasquano was marked with eating these pastries. Very emotional for fans in particular and a lovely touch. U wonder if Clara was aware of the significance or fans, whether it meant anything to her etc.

[@rl1111rl]

We went to Sicily before the pandemic and accidentally came across the set where they were filming Il Commissario Montalbano!

[@elizastonereliza3545]

Thank you Clara for sharing your cooking. Bless your ❤️.
