93-year-old Teresa makes "rascatielli" pasta from Basilicata! | Pasta Grannies

[@okkkks]

I would never say that Teresa is 93! She looks fantastic. All the best for her and her beautiful family! Love from Poland

[@andreamaiorana8490]

She sure does! And they all 3 have such beautiful hair!

[@pastagrannies]

That's true! x

[@hatchling88]

Teresa looks, carries herself and talks like someone at least a decade younger, maybe two. My goodness.

[@axion8788]

This never gets old. Such human warmth, enjoying the simple pleasures of life.

Beautiful to see these women working together and bringing their culture to us and too younger generations.. Basilicata province lots of copaesani here. Grazie Mille. 😊😋🥰🥰🥰😍

Grazie per il commento! x

Every time I need comfort, I watch Pasta Grannies. simply heartwarming ❤

[@janefreda7034]

Same! One of the best parts of the internet.

[@digd1990]

I'm 34, and grew up with my mother making rascatielli a couple times a month, thinking it was a made up pasta name or a blend of Italian-American languages. A few years ago I came across a video of a granny making rascatielli and it blew my mind that this pasta I grew up eating all the time was in fact a real thing. I've been a fan ever since, have your books, and love seeing Teresa making this. Thank you.

[@amelie_vonG]

One of my new favorite things others than to see the nonna cook, is to see Vicky shopping with them. So grateful that this channel exist 😆

[@scottamori3188]

Agreed. The market scenes are a pleasure.

[@cor-z8m]

The love these women have put in their cooking! Hard working all of their lives!

[@owilliams7449]

It's lovely to see the community join together and be happy. Thank you for continuing to show how wonderful the grannies are each week.

[@pastagrannies]

Thank you!

[@patriciahoumdi1178]

This was beautiful to watch! The ladies, still healthy and happy even after a lifetime of hard work (perhaps the secret to long life?)! And what an interesting pasta. My soul aches to visit these villages.

[@pastagrannies]

Thank you for your comment x

[@scottamori3188]

These ladies walking arm in arm to get the bread brought a huge smile to me. These ladies have lead what we would now consider hard lives but their outlook remains sunny. May the traditions continue to the subsequent generations. And as always, the wine. God bless! Another joy of an episode from the best channel on KZbin. Thanks.

[@pastagrannies]

Thank you!

[@sianwarwick633]

I love how the sisters and their daughter get along 💕. And how everyone gets along in the pasta-and mollica making group. And the bottled peperoncino.

[@mad8298]

Love this and that they make an affirmative effort to pass on traditions to the younger generations. I learned how to cook, crochet and embroider from my Nonna, much of that done while in Basilicata. Such wonderful memories.

[@pastagrannies]

This is the only channel I subscribe to. Pasta Grannies and Vicki have added such joy to my life - I look forward to it every Friday night - thank you.

[@pastagrannies]

Thank you for this kind comment and for your support x

[@trinitywright7122]

I love the Italian women on your show. They still dress up. They put on their jewelry and they wear nice dresses. They were beautiful aprons. I wondered if the two sisters had made the aprons they had on today. I love them both.. and I have never seen this kind of pasta that took real skill! Wow amazing. 93. While isn't she amazing she looks like she's 70. And all that hard work does the body good. This little town is picturesque and beautiful! I love pasta grannies I watch them all.❤

[@pastagrannies]

thanks for being a fan Trinity, 🙂🌺 best wishes Vicky

[@carlaquartiroli6820]

WOW! It looks absolutely delicious. Interesting how they make a breadcrumb mixture & chili oil to put on top of the dressed pasta. Could go for a dish right now!!!!

[@pastagrannies]

it was delicious x

[@mariapepper6175]

This is a fantastic video! The scenery is breathtaking. I love seeing these women working together to create a perfect meal for family and friends. Vicky, thank you for bringing this taste of Heaven! At least, this is how I expect Heaven will be!! Sending prayers and love. 🙏❤🇺🇸

[@pastagrannies]

Thank you, Maria x

[@Sue-ec6un]

Lovely! I did not know about mollica but now that I do, I think I'll make some to put in the fridge for my next pasta meal! I love that you bring the roots of my ancestry to me every week! It makes me remember my earliest memories. Thank you!

[@pastagrannies]

I think you'll find you'll sprinkle mollica on more dishes than pasta - it's also great on salads and cooked vegetables. 🙂🌺 best wishes Vicky

[@shellbellexx3]

Ms. Teresa, Antonietta and Pina- Tre belle signore!! What a lovely video. Everyone was so welcoming, happy and fun. Mario’s pepper sauce demo was great, he was made for film! I very much liked the convo/banter between Ms Teresa & her sister Ms Antonietta. Even in their senior years, the little sister teases her elder sister and vice versa, adorable! I hope my little sister and I are just as blessed to see this many years together. Such a beautiful gift ❤ Another wonderfully entertaining and endearing “Pasta Grannies” episode 👏🏻👏🏻

[@pastagrannies]

thank you! We should definately go back to film Mario!

[@jonesbub1]

What a fantastic story of the making of this unique and traditional pasta…and to see the community come together to share the work and the fruits of their work is just wonderful! I, like so many here, would NEVER guess Teresa is 93 and her sister 87! They look GREAT! TFS, Sharon🤗♥️🍝

I love these Italian Villages. I grew up in Hollywood and lived in a small farm town for 15 years. It was beautiful. Hollywood is just concrete, smog and crime.

[@TheTeachingCouple]

Have you ever been to one of these Italian villages? 🇮🇹 😊

[@mikeneidlinger8857]

I haven't. If I went there, it would take years to explore the scenes of Italian Lifestyle.

[@fakenorwegian4743]

I live in LA and I have never seen it in a worse state. I am old enough now to be able to say, I have lived in better times.

[@michaelmckinley6510]

I love this series so, so, SO much!

[@pastagrannies]

Thank you!

[@fakenorwegian4743]

Something I always think about when I watch these videos is how healthy these elderly women in Italy are. Preparing food is not simple, or easy. Cooking requires strength, endurance, time management, a good memory, etc. Right now, foods made from grains are characterized as being unhealthy. I think these women prove that the low carb diet is simply a fad and not the secret to a healthy life. And yes, I am aware that wheat grown in Italy is far superior to wheat grown in the US. I make sure that I buy Italian pasta made with Italian grain.

[@dorkula]

Looks like a fun delicious time!

[@CrowSkeleton]

Interesting about the uses of open/closed forms - keen to see the sauce next week!

[@PaulMcGuinness]

Fantastico! Non vedo l'ora quando sono in Italia a nuovo.

7:34 It is interesting to note that the lady speaks standard Italian and not the local dialect, as usually happens with many ladies of a certain age.

what charmers!

[@donaldist7321]

they look like orecchiette - only not made with a knife or on a board. And I love that they also use the best pasta in the world: Divella. Used to buy it for 59 cents a pack.

[@Sammysam44]

How beautiful!!!! I was just a little worried about the cheese😂😂😂

[@rosannarm]

love love love. OMG I can't believe how amazing and beautifully youthful she is!!! I'm falling apart at 56! Anyhow VICKI if you are going to be in the area... I would suggest going inland to the Vallo Di Diano.. to my father's hometown a little hamlet in the province of Salerno's mountains called Monte San Giacomo! I can put you in touch with my cousins.. they have some specific artisanal dishes that are made no where else!

[@pastagrannies]

hi Rosanna, Cilento National Park is a lovely part of the world. We're hoping to film on Ischia at the end of September, so maybe we can do a detour.. 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky

[@hgrabows]

That topping made of breadcrumbs and spices reminds me of how vegans mock up Parmesan cheese topping with almond flour and nutritional yeast. I like the idea of trying that out as way of adding spice and texture. I think I'll try it with Cayenne pepper...

[@kimblackwell7659]

I just love Pasta Grannies, I wish the font size and color could be adjusted to an easier to read size for the translated captions. I only watch on my phone and it’s so tiny. I miss all the stories the grannies are saying.

[@pastagrannies]

hi Kim, I'm sorry to hear that. Could I double check that you turn your mobile on its side so the video expands to fit the whole screen horizontally? The tricky bit is having subtitles which are large, but don't obscure the action. 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky

what did they eat before the tomatoes came over from South America? Tom. sauce is on everything - looks lovely!

[@gio7799]

We've plenty of sauces without tomatoes, tomatoes became a staple in our cuisine in the 19th century, 300 years after their introduction in Europe.

They are incredibly agile for their age and I love the idea of them teaching the young people the traditional crafts. I can't imagine even working in the kitchen with my wife, never mind my siblings. I’m going to try this recipe but to be honest I’m looking forward to the one using the crust up. I make all my own bread and there’s only two of us but my wife prefers pain de mei and or focaccia I prefer pain de campagne so we have a lot of left overs. The birds are so fat round here they can’t take off…

Using plastic colander to make breadcrumbs, what a great tip.

True!

[@GuidoBatt]

One thing that surprised me is that the man here speaks with a northern accent. Do you have a story to share? (Normally the internal migration goes the other way).

[@GuidoBatt]

I gave it a second listen. No, he actually speaks with a very slight southern accent. He prabably lived in the North in his working life.
