Great Depression Cooking - Making Espresso with Sweet Crema

[@nicolesilvestre3883]

[@sarahlynn7894]

My nanna was just like Clara. Born in 1913, from Malta (which is right next to Sicily and very close in cultures), lived through the depression, married in Malta like Clara married in Sicily, and cooked from scratch with everything. Both Catholic and both had Mother in laws that didn't like them! 😆 They both express themselves with their hands and talk loud. I miss the old ways so much and these videos bring back so many memories. My Nanna was born in Malta and came to America with my Maltese Nannu in 1939. My mother was the baby, so I am the youngest grandchild and I feel like I'm the last generation to grow up with these old traditions. I was born in the late 70's. My Nanna died at 93 in 2006 and I was so lucky to have her as long as I did. I miss her soooooooooo much! Thank you for these precious videos! I went and bought an Italian Bialetti Moka Pot today and can't wait to try this! God bless! ❤️

In the last 3 days; I met Clara, drank lots of strong Italian style coffee, made the dandelion salad, the pepper and eggs and the delicious almond chocolate biscotti.

She was indeed so wonderful.

Hello dear how are you doing over there?

[@sr.6816]

I just came across Claras videos a few month ago. Many, many thanks to her grandson for convincing her to make these treasure videos! I have been watching them over and over. Clara reminds me much of my German Oma. She passed away many years ago but I always remember the nice times we shared. I am in my 50's and live in the US. Back then, my Oma used to make baked apples, just like Clara. Soon when the weather gets colder, that will be a nice treat that I had forgotten about for many years! Today I went and bought a freah pack of espresso and made it just like Clara showed, with crema! ❤ Oh, it was so good! I watched Claras video and had my espresso with Clara in spirit! ❤😊 Many thanks to the family for sharing lovely Clara with us! What an absolute joy it is to watch her! 😊

Dear Grandson, So glad you have these wonderful memories of your grandmother. I’ll soon be 93 and about 14 yrs younger than your grandmother but my family wouldn’t share many things about the depression and my experiences with my grandmother are my fondest memories. We didn’t know we were ‘dirt’ poor because everyone was. We always had garden & canned for survival. God Bless you for recording these beautiful memories. I’ve sent them to my grandchildren & asked them to share with their children.

[@SaintLouiegal2010]

Much respect for this woman she reminds me of my grandma who was born in 1929 she taught me wisdom, how to cook, we also come from a Sicilian family so I really enjoy watching these videos of Clara. Wish I would’ve documented something like this from her. What strikes me is watching another video “the poor man’s meal” specifically she said she had to quit high school couldn’t afford socks just breaks my heart hearing that. Damn. Times were really hard a big contrast to the generation in today’s society. Also mentioning the baby boomers here for my dad. Times were so different then.

She had a damn fine memory, all these little tidbits of stories from her past have such good details. Also at 5:27 I had to laugh, I didn’t know people put cheese on their fish, I dont think I’ve ever seen that.

[@DeputyVanHalen5150]

@Brandon Johnson McDonald's automatically puts cheese on their fillet o fish I believe. LOL! I think that it's really strange. I bet that Clara probably didn't eat fast food. I don't think that it's a good idea either. 😁

[@tinajenkins8410]

When I was in elementary school, they would do that. I hated the fish, and loved cheese. But, they'd ruin the cheese, putting it on top of the fish, made it yucky! 😄

The absolute nerve of those people refusing to eat the dish that Clara so thoughtfully made.

[@AliciaNyblade]

Right? I'd love to taste those breaded pork chops. All of Clara's recipes I've tried have been absolutely delicious. I can't believe people--especially her in-laws of all folks--would refuse to eat her meal. What's wrong with having pork in summer? It's delicious year-round.

@@AliciaNyblade yes...weren't they Italians???.. I miss those people..we have none here...it's too small a place for good Italian families...,❤

[@catherineolivia1]

Totally. Height of bad manners as my mother would say.

[@aaronying4989]

From what I read Italians have very long strict rules about food, eating and coffee. Probably difficult to get out of that. Especially for the older generations and their traditions.

[@EphemeralProductions]

That’s how Italians (and many European countries) are, they’ll lay it on the line with you and tell you the truth. If they don’t want something, you’ll know it. It seems rude to us but i think that might just be how some people in those cultures are. Even though there’s the Italian saying “A caval donato non si guarda in bocca” which means don’t look a gifthorse in the mouth. Lol

I love hearing Clara's stories.

[@doloresvancartier1]

I love the stories as much as the coffee recipe.

To Clara’s family: I love these videos and I’m so happy that you have them to see the Clara that you loved so much and to let your children know her. 🌺❤️🌺
