What you described with boiling down the whey for hours is called getmese. Mese=the brown sweet stuff. The cheese itself is called getost. Ost=cheese. Get=goat. With love from helene from sweden

[@leahkilsby4854]

I just got done digging through very hard ground to finish the trench that will bring electricity to the home we are building. My dream is to one day be cooking with you guys in my kitchen on my homestead. I am sipping a glass of wine watching this, and you all have inspired me to keep going. I'm so excited to cook this meal myself in my kitchen. I wish I could be there with you, but I'm so glad you shared this adventure so that in a way I am. Thank you!

[@lindapertusati7990]

Rather than moving slower or at a slower pace, I view it as moving and living with intention. As an Italian, we always lived and moved with intention but i can see how others may view it as a slower pace.

[@ruthlloyd1163]

I like this. Very good observation.

[@thehomegrowngardener]

I just love the simplicity of Italian food! I can’t wait to go back to Sicily 💚👩‍🌾💚

[@MissMaryLu]

I will absolutely have to try the pasta recipe! Beautiful, simple, and delicious. Thank you for sharing 🥰

[@nataliavalentina2341]

What a beauty! Thank you for all the amazing views of Italy 🇮🇹 the food looks delicious!

[@ash6811]

Beautiful video! It was like we were traveling along in the busy market with you. The fresh produce is enviable. I’m definitely going to have to try this recipe. Good for you for bringing the proper tools along with you to do your job well. I don’t know if you stayed at Airbnbs but I know that a lot of the time they will have barely sharp knives and maybe a few pots and pans. This was such a joyful time that you shared. Thank you.

[@girlmeetshomestead]

My heart is just so happy watching this!! I feel like I’m there. ♥️ Cannot wait to try this at home!

[@ColRubyDimplesManacha]

The tile work in that amazing kitchen just stole my heart!

[@karellarsen939]

How fun!! Everything looked delicious! Mmmmm. To have a taste 🎉

[@mfr336]

Ugh, my heart just sighs watching this. You guys are doing such a great job.

[@centraltexashomestead-mike4956]

Fun trip Shaye. Mike and I went to Tuscany Italy 8 years ago when he was a chef and it was amazing. Now we need to go to Sicily for sure. Very nice pasta dish. Blessings, Rochelle

Hello from Oregon. I've been patiently waiting for this 🤗

[@mountainmamashome]

The dish looks so wonderful. Thank you for sharing this trip so I can live vicariously through you! I think I might look into the knives as a Christmas present for my husband.

[@megandixon6605]

Hits my heart! I loved living in Sicily!

[@theresagraham9368]

Yummy In didn’t have any eggplant but uses lots zucchini instead and still wonderful .Thanks for sharing your trip how fun and can’t wait for more !!

Fantastic!! How fun! ❤️

Just recently stumbled upon her page. She's like the farmer Giada. Love it. From ground to stove.

[@jennyharmony1371]

Is she though?? I mean Giada trained at Le Cordon Blue in Paris.

[@gwenewing6837]

I am reaaally enjoying your tripto Italy! Caan't wait to try this recipe! You and Dolores look like sisters! You also have similar mannerisms!!

[@erinpearson3559]

Shaye i’m 23 I’ve been watching you for years your life has always been my dream life I’m so happy to see the new content. This was a beautiful video it made me very hungry I will now be traveling to H-E-B at 11 o’clock at night love you forever❤

Best food in the world..Any where you travel in Italy is all unique, flavorful and the best food's...

[@MDeanrecipes]

Lovely dish - just left Sicily and it's an easy place to fall in love with.

[@ilzitek2419]

Heavenly. Thank you.

[@justpatty7328]

Magnificent! (But said in Italian) I'm going to attempt this recipe too.

[@ragnhildwadahl6171]

Norwegian geitost is 35% goat and 65% cows milk, it is a brown cheese tasting sweet, it came from a girl on our neighbourfarm in this village- that cooked her cheese a bit to long by accident- it takes hours of boiling- it is not pressed and stored ricotta

[@genietillery878]

I will have to try that pasta recipe now.

[@dugchris2009]

Looks delicious!

[@joanneganon7157]

Such beautiful Markets there 🐦. The Stone Walls are Gorgeous 😍. Thank You so much for Sharing 😊💞. JO JO IN VT 😆💕

Good morning from India 💜

[@aseasonalabode]

you finally got to go to Italy!

[@Holly_at_gypsyhollergardens]

Wonderful !!!

[@jeffkey3158]

Looks amazing and thank you for showing your viewers the in and outs of Italy ad most people will never get to travel there💚QUESTION?? What kind or brand of olive oil are you suggesting??🤔🤔🤔

[@chrisgogreve8743]

Yum!!!❤❤❤

[@Just-Nikki]

Even crowded as it was in the market, it still gave big family vibes and not crowds of strangers vibes.

[@charlottezent]

Goodmorning from the Netherlands, just left Italy last month after a three week holiday. This video brought me back again! Loved it! ❤ I am wondering, how did you manage the homestead lifestyle while the kids were younger? My son is 1 year, I find it hard to find time to make a nice big meal, while before he was born I would love to stand in the kitchen voor 1,5 hour or so. I always think, how did Shaye do this?? 🤯😅

[@cathyreid8346]

I still have family in Sicily, I've always wanted to visit!

[@thehomegrowngardener]

Oh you must!

[@fulviomiglio4162]

What are you waiting for?

[@bbqwithrandy]

I lived in Sicily for 5 years when I was a young man and I still have dreams of my time there and the foods I ate!

[@tamieparton487]

great video...thanks so much for sharing! Can't wait to try this dish. also, the long skinny green vegetable you showed in the market, and then again on your counter....was that cucuzza? I grew some this year and not sure what to do wth them!

[@samdymond8760]

I too, want to know how you ended up using the cucuzza!

[@janetwithers7427]

Yummy 🍁💕🍁

[@peterdoe2617]

This was really fun to watch. I'm chopping up some foraged mushrooms today. Are you familiar with "the chicken of the woods"? I harvested a huge one, yesterday. About the "destiny" thing: reminds me of the song "Meant to be" by Bebe Rexha. Love that song! Greetings from the far north of Germany! Stay safe!

[@B-leafer]

Pasta looks really good as you're making it. After salting the eggplant, do you rinse it off and dry it? Came out beautiful.

[@HD-jr4qu]

Is this recipe posted somewhere? I did not see it in the description notes

[@ivabasquill5764]

Could you tell us what olive oil you used.?

[@rhondashotwell7358]

Looks delicious! I would like to know what music is playing? I like it.

[@s4paded]

How did you bring those knives????

[@merete1409]

Interessting whar you said about the ricotta cheese, did you compare to the brown goatcheeese or the white one? I ask because I wouldnt dream of putting brown goatcheese on pasta :D its reserved as spread for bread or as a flavour to gravy. Greetings from Arctic Norway :)

[@mkinder9557]

Wondering about how much salt you put on the eggplant and if you rinsed it off before cooking it. Eggplant intimidates me. 😊

[@karenpanella3878]

I love all parts of Italy. I actually have a house there and we are moving there soon. (My husband was born and raised there) I don't want to sound rude but I do want to let you know that arancini is pronounced aranchini. The c is pronounced ch. I know it is silly but it is like when people say bruschetta with an sh instead of a hard c. I hope you don't mind. Lovely video and lovely recipe.

[@cynthiafisher9907]

I don’t speak Italian and have never been to Italy, but I wondered that. I love languages. Thanks for clearing it up.

[@karenpanella3878]

I hope you don't mind. Love your channel 😀

[@Lanahani1]

The "ci" is pronounced like "ch".

[@jamesmazzone7467]

The knives are allegedly Sharp however Sicilians have Arabic writing on their walls why?

[@extremathule982]

Because Sicily is a massive 3-track circus. That's why.😒

[@esti-od1mz]

Hi, a sicilian here. Those arabic writings are foundable only in Palermo, and they are basically tourist attractions, with the intention of showing how some places were called in arabic during the muslim domination. We sicilians can't understand them, but surely they are a nice artistic touch...

[@extremathule982]

@@esti-od1mz "......they are basically tourist attractions,..." "Attrazioni" *'sta ron funcia i minkia!* 😑 Quella è una pubblica dimostrazione dell'inettitudine ed inutilità dei siciliani in quanto popolo ed espressione di un disastro culturale che non trova paragoni sul pianeta terra.

[@valkyrieocean]

Unsubscribed with these videos from Italy. Sales through and through. I genuinely thought I had found a down to earth channel.

[@XtremeChiliPepper]

I kinda thought that on the first Italy video (after watching years worth of homestead). I got blasted in the comments. Have been reluctant to watch this one, however I took a step back to enjoy how she wants to present the content. All big KZbinrs have sponsors. I don't like it either, but look at it from their perspective - growing channel, chance to travel, cooking with the best utensils, etc. I'm jealous most of the time. If you ever watched the winner of a Nascar race, or any sporting event, they will thank 10-15 people, and have the sponsors name blasted everywhere.

[@jennyharmony1371]

Imagine tryna flex by bringing your own knives assuming your hosts don't have anything sharp enough to cut eggplant or tomatoes LOL 😂 Calm down girl, you're not cooking for Draghi

[@wanderervii]

Professional chefs bring their own knives to whatever kitchen they will be cooking in, as well as to classes where they learn new techniques. Share takes her craft seriously and if that is wrong then I don't want to be right. If someone came to cook at my house and brought their favorite knife I wouldn't bat an eye, I would appreciate their eagerness to jump in and help prep. And sponsorships like this are a big part of Shaye's ability to keep putting out beautiful content so if only for that reason I am happy to see these knives in her hands, wherever she happens to be.

[@providencegrove4600]

@@wanderervii YES!

[@toddjdesign]

@@wanderervii professional chefs don't use Kamikoto knives. They are pretty trash knives, if you don't believe me--search up some reviews.

Because it used to belong to the Emirates at one point in history. Wonderful melting pot of cultures
