Italian Grandma Makes Thanksgiving Stuffing

[@LelaBinford]

I love Grandma Gina, her recipes and her singing. She's a beautiful lady with a loving soul. God continue to bless her with many, many more years to share with us all, in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen

[@marygregus3755]

I watch this every year before I make it. So nice to watch this sweet lady.

[@andreacaine8016]

We love Nonna Gina. God bless you for keeping the traditions and recipes for us to learn. I know your cooking is the best. I would love to sit at the table with you and eat and hear all your stories. ❤❤

[@maryannhall8227]

I love her! She needs to write a cookbook. Her simple Italian dishes are just what I grew up with.

[@dianetabone5137]

Looks delicious. I will make this come Thanksgiving.

[@j.licata4392]

I 100% agree she needs to write a cookbook

[@pattiromano2475]

I definitely agree with the cookbook!!

[@jjl7852]

I would buy a cookbook!

[@VelvetRedRoses]

I can’t help but love this woman. She reminds me of my own Grandma, What a treasure! And she is all about the family. Her cooking is done with years of observation and experience. We are all richer by watching her magic.

[@artthompson612]

This lady reminds me of my aunts with the same Italian immigrant accent. Their focus never wavered children, family and faith were the factors of life which held their attention. Their husband worked and the Nona served the best they could secure to their family. We were extremely fortunate.

[@johannapaciullo8659]

And we will all give thanks and praise to Grandma Gina. God bless you and Happy Thanksgiving 💕

[@retired201064]

Lol. I’m laughing out loud when you told the story of the cat getting into the food. Then whatayougonnado? We bring to the sink and we wash it in the sink and put it back in the sauce!!! Perfect!!! You can’t throw it out. That had to be the cleanest sauce ever. I just love your stories grandma Gina. Thank you for bringing these stories to us. My grandma lived with us Her name was Rosina and she was from Sicily. When her daughters Catherine and Rose would come over it was hilarious. It was the three sisters. My mother Josephine and her sisters Rose and Catherine and grandma Rosina. They would laugh and laugh about the old stories from Italy and New York. Wonderful memories.

The absolute wonderfulness of Ginas turkey dressing is that it can become a meal in itself,just top with gravy and add a side salad..voila! Lunch or dinner in a snap..Shes just so special!

I never knew my Nonna, but have heard enough to feel Gina is much like her and she warms my heart!

[@kathleenhorlacher1908]

Gina is a blessing to us all. I can’t remember exactly how I came across her page but this recipe is now an absolute staple in my Italian American household! Thank you Gina and many blessings to you and your family.

[@jamie-lynnm1771]

I'm am so happy I found you.. You remind me of my grandma so much, we lost her when I was very young so never got to learn recipes from her... Miss her dearly. But your very previous thank you so much.. Much love from Canada.

[@marilynclair4963]

Love listening and watching you Gina! I close my eyes and listen to you. It reminds me of my granny who showed me how to make her raviolis. They were the best! Thank you for all the old way recipes which I love ❤️

These videos bring back so many happy memories of cooking with my Nanny Rosalie. I just love watching Grandma Gina!

[@chrisslady8490]

Carmen Peters, totally agree!

[@wendymarie5058]

I love when Gina sings, so precious. She is adorable.

[@pyrotas]

I read some comments complaining about the alleged slowness of the videos. Some other people claim she'd need a blender to make it quicker. Here's what I think. Gina works in a kitchen which is the equivalent in size of a Hilton suite, if she needed a processor, she'd have a processor. She needs not, it's just that simple. You see, I think you're missing a little background here. Gina is not one of your ordinary granmas. Gina was born in the south of Italy, during times when cooking was as natural as breathing. You grew up and just learned by watching, because you *had* to help. Little canned food around, no "pret-a-consommer" on the shelves. These recipes (and derivatives, as this one) are hard-coded deep into her DNA. She could easily prepare stuffing single-handedly while staring at you with a daring glance waving her wooden spoon ("LA CUCCHIARELLA"), just because. She knows how food has to be prepared. Sure, some scientist may even explain that blending with a processor actually increases air-food surface favoring oxidation and degrading taste. Gina needs no such fancy words. She knows it because someone before her has tried using a blender in the last 40-50 years and no, the taste was not exactly the one they looked for. Or maybe the texture, or whatnot. But I think there is even more. She just knows that cooking (in that manner) is a labor of love. It has to be done in due time, no less, no more. There is no speedup in love, as there is no speedup in the kitchen. Proper food is love, preparing it in that precise manner is the best way to start enjoying your meal way before the dinner actually begins. And this, besides all other tips and tricks sprinkled around, is the true lesson this woman is striving to teach. Long live Gina!

[@dorenenagy564]

I agree. Everyone wants to know how she fixes her food because its good, then you have to fix it the way she does. She puts her time and love into each dish, I'm sure.

[@takeittodehart1507]

I agree with what your saying , thank you for posting it. This is grandmas way I love it she reminds me of all my Italian friends gathering in the kitchen with good food and stories. Bless you

[@dannyfox4156]

Bravo Fabio!!! Well put!!!

[@ruthherchenhanh792]

I never thought about Ginas video's being slow. I love watching her and spending time with her. I love hearing her sing. I don't think I ever read a complaint about her.

[@chrisslady8490]

I agree with what your saying! God bless this amazing woman, Gina!

I've watched several of your videos and will definitely be trying out some of your recipes. I especially like the beans with the broth, olive oil and stale bread. Peasant food is THE BEST! And so are you! Thank you for all you do. You are a very precious Italian grandma to all of us. God bless you.

Dear Gina I just love you and your recipes so much. I have made several. They all are so good. I watch your videos for inspiration in the kitchen and also because you always make me smile. I am from Portugal. So we are from neighboring countries. But I have lived in the United States for 20 some years now and I also have 4 children. I love to cook and I make everything from scratch. You remind me of my mom and her sisters. All of that good energy that you have and your mannerisms. May God bless you with good health and a long life and lots of peace. Thank you.

Ciao Grandmother Gina!!! I adore your cooking videos! I am sorry to say that I had only precious few moments as a very young child with my Italian grandmother, as she died when I was only 5 years old. I remember she would talk to me like you do. She spent a lot of time in the kitchen preparing a big Sunday meal for her children and grandchildren, when we could visit. I remember her also making the sign of the cross when starting her work, as you do! God bless you Grandmother Gina!

[@countingthecosttofollowChrist]

what amazing memories you have. Oh, I so miss the grandmas from yesteryears, when they were about caring for families rather than todays who never have time for the families because they are too busy playing golf or at resorts.

I learned this stuffing from my mother; just no sugar or raisins, but everything else the same. I make it every Thanksgiving for our family of 25-30 and everyone loves it. Also, years ago my mother had left a plate of Sunday gravy meat (2 lbs meatballs, brociole, lb of sausage) that she had browned on the counter before we went to Mass. When we returned, our dog who was quite large, had eaten all the meat. I think we had marinara sauce instead of Sunday gravy that day! Thank you again for always bringing back wonderful memories for me. Benedizioni a te.
