Pasta Grannies discover spaghetti with tiny meatballs from Abruzzo

[@JorgeSpina1980]

That hug at the end and the story about how she made the tiny meatballs when she was a little girl, show how much she loves her Nonna! Amazing video! Thanks for sharing stories so touching (and yummy!)

[@maplesaffrontours6933]

That's so nice of you! Thank you so much! Alessia

[@TamaraMTL]

Jorge Spina and what makes it even more touching is how it’s her granddaughter in law. Once you marry into the family, you ARE family. Beautiful ❤️

Fabrizio Leonetti Sei proprio tu il nipote nel video ? Bravo.... qui ti fanno i complimenti ! 😉👍

I'm not the only one who felt the tugs at their heart when the grandson dabbed the sweat from her face, and when granddaughter in law hugged her... Right?!

[@vanshikak3370]

Oh, she brought a smile on my face. Love from India.

[@debbiestouder1133]

OMG!! That looks so delicious! Love the affection between her and her grandchildren. Can she adopt me?

[@shawndurbs]

I live in Abruzzo and bought one of these chitarra devices last year. It’s the best pasta you can make, I think. Great texture and goes well with meat or fish sauces. I use it at least once a week, normally Sundays, and love it. I always make the pasta with semolina flour and eggs.

[@jpmorski]

Una vera meraviglia! Bravissimo! Grazie a tutti! Un forte abbraccio dalla Repubblica di Georgia!

[@Rob_430]

This channel is great. I am of Italian descent and was always around my Grandmother. When I see them make and roll out the dough, it’s what my Grandma did, making pasta. Today I made mini meatballs to have with pasta. So cute Granddaughter hugging her at the end. I miss the old days like this. Not the same! Nothing like Italian Families!

[@pastagrannies]

I'm glad the channel brings back happy memories for you! best wishes, Vicky

i discovered this channel a week ago and now i'm addicted. i can't decide what i love more: the cute italian ladies or the absolutely wonderful recipes. my only problem is, that i always get so hungry when i watch these videos :)

Vielen Dank für die Mühe alte Rezepte für die Nachwelt zu bewahren. Es ist zwar schwere Handarbeit, aber die lohnt sich auf alle Fälle. 🔥Die Nonnas geben sich große Mühe um alles gut zu veranschaulichen.❤️

[@1890matteo]

She has the same accent as my grandma, she reminds me of her so much. She used to prepare this dish at least once in a month and it was definitely my favorite one as a kid. This woman is so precious!

[@pastagrannies]

Was your nonna also from the Teramo province? best wishes Vicky

[@1890matteo]

No, she was from the Chieti province. My mother has bought a "chitarra" and keeps the tradition alive :-)

[@kevinrosario8363]

🥺 she's adorable! What a legendary nonna

[@ginafromcologne9281]

I loved this, and her way of making spaghetti is pure genius! You could probably even make that chitarra yourself with some simple tools. And play music on it after dinner. :D

[@stopandlive91]

I love, love, love this channel. I just *wish* the videos were longer. Maybe occasionally? How about going shopping for groceries *WITH* the grannies? Just a though.

[@ChefWife67]

Michael Duvic I think that is a GREAT IDEA! Bravo!👏🏼

[@pastagrannies]

hi Michael, great suggestion 😊 it's something I'm trying to think through the logistics of as it would mean spending longer with the Grannies - not a hardship of course, but up to now we try and film 3 Grannies a day when we are on location. I've got a couple of episodes in the pipeline which are longer - they are still about a month away. I will be interested in your feedback! best wishes, Vicky

[@davidhubert37]

I'm hooked to these videos. One thing I noticed though is that hardly any of the Grannies use herbs. No basil, thyme or rosemary, which was surprising to me.

[@robbieolive]

There's a couple of reasons for this: firstly, it's all about the 'cucina povera', or peasant's cooking, using only a few but very fresh ingredients that are immediately available at the time, and secondly, in a mostly mountainous region like Abruzzo, where it gets very cold for many months of the year, coming by fresh herbs are difficult, and are usually only used in the high summer season. My mother, who is from the high mountains of this region, cooks exactly along these lines.

[@mallyndab]

How beautiful. I miss my grandma. She didn’t make spaghetti. She made pozole haha

[@rileyjackfansmithandjones8238]

30 years in the Biz as Sous Chef, Head Chef,, could never figure out how mini meatballs were made, by hand . My Italian Wedding Soup will now get the Next Loving Touch I've been seeking.... Buying premade Mini Meatballs doesn't work for me, when, I home make such Killer Chicken Stock. Thank you for the Share! Gratzi!

[@aris1956]

4:04. Maybe an indication for Americans ....this is how “Spaghetti and meatballs" are made and not like they do them in America, with the big meatballs. PS: This was my favorite dish as a child. When I went to my Nonna on Sundays, she knew it and always made me Pasta with meatballs.

[@julieathome7793]
