Love your vlog. Watching from the Midwest of USA. Nothing like a sausage gravy. Everyone has their own special touch when it comes to making it. I believe there’s enough fat in the sausage that you don’t have to cook it in water. The water can suck the flavor out of it. I cook my sausage and meatballs in the oven before I add them to my pot of sauce. My father Angelo always cooked them on the stove top) I then add garlic, basil and a pinch of sugar. Merry Christmas, Happy Cooking and God Bless!🙏🏻🎄

When I lived up north of Europe, I needed to have a Calabrian connection to leave me such sausages aside in their delicatesse store. I had to become a part of good food mafia!❤🇮🇹

Hi Eszter and Alfred.. i love the video. My mum used to simmer her sugo for hours. Always made with garlic and onions. It was yummy. Thanks for the tour of your festive home. I wish you both a wonderful Christmas and New Year. Sending love and light 😊❤ 🎄 ✨️

Buon Natale amici. My Nana & Mom from Palermo called it gravy. I use crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, sometimes also put petite cut tomatoes, onions, garlic, basil, a little red pepper & sugar. Salt & black pepper. Two pots Xmas double batch gravy includes sausage, meatballs & another to tenderize the braciole in gravy after baking it. I make lasagna with ricotta cheese mix. Bread of course & picorino romano or Parmesan fresh grated. Hope your Christmas is peaceful & happy ❤🎄🇺🇸

No sugar! Add a carrot to impart its natural sweetness, then throw it away when sauce is done. My mom was from near Siracusa!

Good morning you two! Looks like you had a blast at your Christmas party! I'll not have as many at my Christmas table this year, a few kids are in other states working and others going to in-laws for Christmas this year. I'll have Only two of my five here and one daughter-in-law. So you know Al, my mom was Polish raised in Woburn with 7 girls and one boy who died when he was a small child. All of my mom's sisters married Italian men including my mother! She taught me a lot about Polish cooking for sure but, she also taught me much about Italian cooking and gave me an old recipe she had passed down to her from my paternal grandmother. I tweaked it many years ago and has become famous in my family and my circle of friends! For my sauce I use Hunts always, I use stewed tomatoes, sauce, paste, and puree! I start with sauteed garlic and onion in olive oil and then add my special spices and other secret ingredients, and yes I use sugar! I'll not be making my lasagna this year, but my tradition is to have the famine before the feast dinner on Christmas Eve, I make polenta with stewed tomatoes, fresh mushrooms sausage in a sauce to go over the warm polenta with of course hot garlic bread! On Christmas Day I'll serve Holiday Soup (or wedding soup called in some Italian families) and I make the homemade chicken broth with my tiny meatballs to go in that with spinach, egg, and Parmesan.. I'll make nice sized meatballs to go in my sauce and serve that of course with hot French garlic bread and beautiful leafy green salad along with a veggie tray, and the favorite by all are my homemade ravioli stuffed with my special recipe of ground chuck to stuff them which I use to make all the meatballs. We will have cheeses and specialty crackers of different sorts, several types of olives, cured meats, cheeses and of course bottles of wine pouring out into our fine crystal! I'll make my famous chocolate delight along with chocolate mint brownies and candies throughout the house and in the stockings above the fireplace... Old school Christmas Music playing of course, Dean Frank and Bing!! Christmas tree lights glowing and others all throughout my home. On the top of and in the center my mother's old mahogany cedar chest is her old nativity science that I inherited many years ago from my mother and she purchased it from Sears in 1955 , 3 years before I came along...I follow her tradition of not putting Baby Jesus in the scene until Christmas Eve! It's a beautiful Nativity and is very special to me and to my children. I even still have some of the original hay/straw that came with it...! My oldest daughter will be here Monday afternoon, first time in many years she will be home for the holidays, her husband is a pilot and they usually spend Christmas with her in-laws in Santa Barbara. This year James will be flying this week for a private jet company that he flies for out of Dallas. I'm looking forward to Christmas Day but as you both know it's a lot of work to do Christmas the Sicilian way! We also had our Christmas tree picking party that was also a blast 2 weeks ago, and I made my famous White chili, artichoke chili dip, and so much more! I love to cook and I miss having my children at home here on the farm with me and I miss all their friends who would come over and love to eat my home cooking! If you are wondering... I do make all my pasta from scratch and Mrs Falbo gave me my treasured "Pasta Queen" over 40 years ago now! When she found out before I married her son that I rolled all my pasta out by hand, she said no no no, and gifted it to me and said now learn how to use this machine it would save your back arms and hands!! I Love y'all, Merry Christmas! You guys are the only people out there that I know of on the internet in Sicily who love to eat delicious foods as much as we do! Thanks for another great year of videos, your smiles, and all the great information about beautiful Sicily! 🎄🍾🥂🍷🎅🧑🎄🦌🎁 Sincerely, Annette Cinquemani (Fivehands) Falbo

oregano is for pizza, not sugo
@petera6186 күн бұрын
The only things we usually use oregano in, is Pizza, Lo Sfincione, Sicilian tomato, potato, and green bean salad, and Salmorigano for fish. Also, La Carne or patate a Sfincione. Never in tomato sauce for pasta.
