Italian Grandma Makes Delicious Cabbage Rolls

[@twiggystardust9573]

I'll bet Nonna's house smells wonderful 24/7.

[@onlyjesussaves840]

I'd pay for the smells! ;)

[@HeyokaGirlSpeaks]

I love how they prep for hours and say its so simple. ❤ Love the Italian family i grew up in and how proud we were of our culture and our food. ❤ As generations move on, little by little it is missed. 😢 But maybe not for this family. They give me hope.

[@shawnblackhawk6718]

I have no grandparents. Can I adopt Nonna and Nanno? I promise to love, cherish and honor them, just like family.

[@onlyjesussaves840]

It's: Nonna, & Nonno. Not Nanno, this isn't Mork, & Mindy. ;)

She reminds me of the woman who played the grandmother on the Waltons series. So lovely

[@deniselayer802]

Omg ….she looks just like her!!! Wow

[@ucimarapski777]

I’m from Serbia. We make the cabbage rolls with sauerkraut (pickled cabbage) in the wintertime. Add some cured meat: bacon, pork ribs or smoked sausage and it’s yummm 😋

[@agnesmeszaros-matwiejuk8783]

Hungarians as well make it the same way!

[@claudiaa8229]

Pickled cabbage sounds so good.

[@olexandrmarchenko7346]

The same in Ukraine. As well we use salted grape leaves to replace cabbage.

[@MariaGasca-Reyes]

Is Serbia part of mongolia ?

[@2ladybughippies569]

Love cabbage rolls

[@RosiG73]

My family is Polish and Italian. My Polish Grandma and Mom made these. In Polish, they’re called Gołąbki. It is roughly pronounced “Go-woom-key”. And they bring back wonderful memories for me so thanks for posting this❣️

[@LVVMCMLV]

Ditto to everything you said… Being Italian and Polish my favorite joke came from Rodney Dangerfield. He said 'I have a friend that's Italian and Polish. He wants to hit somebody but he doesn't know who'. If you can't make fun of yourself, you can't make fun of anybody else.

[@allison471]

Ga-wum-kee! Yum the best food ever 😊

[@mikethepups7742]

same here … Dad was Polish and Mom was Sicilian … omg … the food was delish! Made these often.

[@Mike-dy8sj]

My grandmother was Polish and made these also. Same name but we nick named them wumpkies. She would be so strict about the brand of rice and fat content of the meat. She would make tons because everyone wanted to take them home after a holiday at her house. There great for breakfast with an over easy egg on top. This was a huge part of my best memories.

[@arkadiuszlipski55]

Hi I'm from Poland, I love watching your channel, my mum teaches me when you roll them up and then put them on the pan to get them a little brown before tomato sauce , giving you even better taste. ❤

[@Coco-zu9ob]

My mother was Italian and she made cabbage rolls and we loved them. We had polish neighbors when my parents were first married and they taught her how to make golabkis (sp?). She stewed them in tomato sauce as well, i guess Italians put their own spin on things. 😊

[@justines8160]

Polish people they also make them in tomatoe sauce, sometimes they serve them with mushroom sauce

[@Nikki7B]

My mom is lebanese, and my mom and grandma used to make cabbage rolls too, a lot of times, for Sunday, after church, when the family would all join together. Yummy. I love how cabbage rolls are a well loved food from so many backgrounds, in the comments.

[@tonyducks1121]

Oh Nonna!! My mom is Polish and used to make cabbage rolls all the time growing up! Bravo! 😋❤️

[@thespicynonna]

It's so good!

[@adrianajimenez4342]

Shes awesome ❤😊 pure love cooking

[@divinetiming8422]

My Mother made these in a tomato sauce. With the left over cabbage my parents would make a big pot of tomatoes, garlic, cabbage, zucchini,peppers, kale/swiss chard, olive oil, all from my Dads big garden. I still today have my Dads garlic and tomatoes that come up naturally every year, even now after they've passed away. I love watching these videos brings back memories of my parents in the kitchen together.

[@rosebud45]

I am from former ussr (Azerbaijan). We used to make it too. We called goluptsi. Only with beef though no pork

[@meaewosika3987]

It looks wonderful that three generations blessed family and nonna cooks with love holds the family close. I used live in southern Italy vicinity of Brandizi for three years in 1976 to 1979 and loved the people and the culture. May the Lord bless you always,,🥰👏

[@Kimber-zn6jd]

Grazie! It looks beautiful and no doubt tastes amazing!

[@qwispery]

I learned to make cabbage rolls from my Slovak mother. We called them Halupki. I always used ground beef and I rolled the cabbage a bit differently, rolling from the bottom of the leaf and tucking the sides in as I roll them up. The ground pork looks delicious though. I may have to try a mixture.

[@lauraz8716]

My polish mother makes hers with ground beef and ground pork

[@Heartwing37]

My mom made these! Everybody near and far I loved them…

[@gloriaalex11]

Yum, cabbage rolls. Nonna is so versatile. I'm lucky to come from an area that had immigrants from many different countries. The grandmas exchanged recipes and each church had festivals, so we got to enjoy a variety of delicious foods growing up.

[@JamesOzmun]

Gosh, it all looks so delicious!! And Julian, when you mentioned Nonna _just knows_ , down here in the south, we call that guesstimating. It's an acquired ability. And when someone here asks what it means, we also respond with, " you just know" .

[@PaulaStenavage-w7n]

Nonna cooks with love . 🤗

[@phyllisg6217]

With the smaller leaves and harder pieces of cabbage, you can make a bed at the bottom of your pan for the rolls to lay on! Nothing is wasted…

[@heideleskun1163]

We use beef and pork and the filling can be used for stuffed peppers. We use Tomato juice and sauce. Use big leaves that you would discard on the bottom and top of the pan to bake them. LOVE stuffed cabbage and peppers.

[@stevethornber677]

Noona, the cabbage rolls look delicious. 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@thespicynonna]

They are!!

[@Kayla-mx3ss]

My grandmother, Helen (Polish), used to make this for my grandfather (Danny) on at least a monthly basis. Wish I would have gotten her recipe when I had the chance. I appreciate you sharing this because it's the next best thing to learning from my own grandmother ❤️

[@onlyjesussaves840]

Awesome comment. :)

[@loubock3238]

Beautiful cabbage rolls, brava nonna!!

[@genevieveaitola3541]

Every Sunday Granny and me made ravioli's, We used plywood to cut the squares. That's Italian.....loved her miss her so much❤❤❤❤❤

[@joymcguire]

My polish gramma and your nona! Thanks!

[@joslac5018]

Yummy! By mother-in-law made them with the savoy cabbage and my mom made them with regular cabbage. Both soooo good! I make it all chopped layered like lasagna in a casserole dish the lazy way 😂

[@onerainiday]

Thank you for adding the recipe at the end of the video.

[@r6095o]

Thank you for sharing! Im from northern Europe and live in US - this is exactly the type of cabbage recipe I was looking for today. Wholesome video too 😊

[@thespicynonna]

Glad it was helpful!

[@r6095o]

🥰

[@jhlfsc]

Italian here too and of course these would be one of my children's favorite dishes because they are a GIANT P.I.A. to make, I don't care what anybody says! Lol Nonna is right, you can just freeze the cabbage too first instead of boiling it and they wilt down so you can roll them without the extra boiling step.

[@adrianajimenez4342]

Very lucky family ❤❤😊

[@dj1469]

I grew up in Western, PA - these are a must! We called them pigs in a blanket or Golabki!

[@honeybeesinstatham1384]

Have you heard of the Ateleta club in Bloomfield, it was popular during the '70s, '80s and '90s. But it's not there anymore. Supported the people from Ateleta coming to the US. Beautiful.

[@dj1469]

@@honeybeesinstatham1384 Yes! Wonderful place. I grew up in a town north of Pittsburgh - New Castle - it's commonly referred to as the "Little Italy."

[@corneliaafara9682]

In Sweden we call them Kåldolmar. If you do it in a pan like Lasagna it's Kålpudding. Also Thank you for starting this channel! Warms my lonely heart.

[@williammonaghan3724]

I lost my Nana last year, and loved watching her cook, over the years (and whilst we'll always never agree who's nana is the best cook) I get the same 'comfort' and enjoyment watching 'Nonna' cook... Great video's keep them coming, these are brilliant..

[@TuckerSP2011]

Very nice! I love cabbage rolls.

[@janethamil9337]

My family loves cabbage rolls. Our recipes uses ground beef instead of pork. hmmm, I would love to try it with pork. We bake ours and I use cooked rice. Aww, I wish I had some cabbage at home, today, I would love to put some together for supper.

[@allison471]

I grew up eating the best golambki from my Polish Grandmother & my mom! They used a beef & pork meat mixture w/rice and always cooked them on the stove for a few hours & the house would always smell sooo good! Always served with homemade mashed potatoes, Cucumbers & sour cream Excellent combination of foods, Oh how I miss them ❤ Good for you Nonna they looked delicious 😊

[@lenlen7893]

W Polsce robimy gołąbki, jest to bardzo popularne danie, z mięsa wieprzowego, ryżu, czasami trochę kaszy gryczanej, sól i pieprz, majeranek, i sok pomidorowy własnej roboty ze słoika - wtedy są najpyszniejsze, na kolację Wigilia Świąt Bożego Narodzenia robimy bez mięsa - wtedy kasza gryczana, grzyby suszone namoczone ugotowane, sól i pieprz, trochę majeranku, i też zalewamy sokiem pomidorowym😘😘😘, aaa i jeszcze trochę smażonej cebuli😊 do środka oczywiście 😘

I’ve only ever seen cabbage rolls done in the oven, but does make sense to boil in sauce…I bet it cooks quicker, too!

I want some of this. I bet it taste so good.

[@hadasabriciu3462]

Oh, I remember when I first made cabbage rolls (with sauer kraut) - I was on a whatsapp call with my mom and grandma and they were both explaining me how to fold the cabagge leaf around the meat. It went something like this : "yes, now roll it, roooolll it, tuck in, noooo, tuck in, no, not like that, no - ugh, there, you spoiled it. grab another leaf and try again". I made them for a dinner with friends - nothing was left in the dutch oven within half an hour of putting them on the table :D They are absolutely delicious and should be tried at least once in a lifetime :) There are many traditions and variations around this dish, each region has its own name for it - congrats to Nonna for going international :D

[@LoriCurl]

My mom taught me to make these, but we are of German descent. This is comfort food to me!! Thank You for reminding me to make some for the holidays!

[@angiewamsley489]

Italian mommas don’t need to measure! We know by the look, feel and smell!! Tasting as we go we know without measuring it’s good!

[@BonFire71]

Mmmhh, Kohlrouladen, in German. In Germany often made with Savoy cabbage or white cabbage but this version in some tomatoe sauce and with rice in it also looks very delicious ! 👍

[@JustCallMeCB]

Thank you for posting a recipe that will feed a normal size family rather than the army that Nonna's feeding in the video. 🤣

[@NinaHansen2008]

Try adding some caraway seeds and raisons. Takes them to another level. Great for leftovers too.

[@MyRandomComment728]

Hi Nonna, If you slam the bottom if the cabbage on a hard surface it will losen the bottom part and it will come out easier. It does work, you are an amazing woman. I admire you, your husband and your entire family very much. ❤

I love Nonna & Nonno's accents. You can hear Italian inflections in all their words (having lived in North & Centre Italy in the past). Nonno sounded like many of my Italian university professors.

[@anne_vvv]

I'm Polish, and this makes me happy ❤ in my house, we added a bit of tomato paste into the mixture but baked the whole thing with less liquid, which is a less popular version. Just a fun fact I guess.

[@katherinekelly9689]

Hi, nonna & family, in my family when we made cabbage rolls, we pickled the cabbage for about 5-6weeks ( water, salt and a little white vinegar) to the meat mixture we added paprika powder the rest as nonna does, it delicious and very filling meal. Love Katherine xoxo

[@Nothing-zw3yd]

My ex-wife wasn't what you would call a great cook (I cooked most of the time), but she made THE best cabbage rolls I've ever had. I can't eat rice so she'd use orzo pasta instead. I've tried to duplicate them, but I just can't. She baked hers, the sauce reduced a lot and thickened up, it was just sublime.
