Documentary Preview - Boston's North End: America's Italian Neighborhood

[@jacquelinebollettiero7534]

I come from a large family from the North End . The narrator of this documentary is related to me through my nephew lol. Johnny Shoes was my Uncle Richards best friend at one time. Victor Passacantilli's son and I share the same birthday. This is all coming from one person talking of the community, just imagine all of the residents and the stories and relationships they experienced in this small little corner of the world. One way or another everyone from the North End were all related somehow . There is no place on Earth like the NORTH END😊😊. I feel so lucky to have grown up in this most unique place. The North End was a very special community at one time!! I am grateful for all of the beautiful memories i have from there!!

its called sauce not gravy

[@jacquelinebollettiero7534]

@@69calabro if you have meat in it, it is a gravy if it is without meat it is Marinara Sauce. Get your facts straight!!! Any thing made from a meat dripping is a gravy. You know pork, beef, sauteed then you add tomatoes then meat balls tada gravy!! Garlic basil parsley salt pepper olive oil then tomatoes tada Marinara Sauce!! I am Italian and I cook, we know the difference between sauce and gravy!!! You should learn the techniques of cooking and the science and language of cooking, before you open your mouth thinking you know what you are talking about!!!

@@jacquelinebollettiero7534 ITS CALLED SUGO, OR SAUCE. BOLOGNESE SAUCE, OR RUGU, WHICH IS A MEAT BASED SAUCE. IM A FIRST GENERATION ITALIAN CANADIAN. WE MAKE OUR OWN TOMATO SAUCE EVERY SUMMER.
