Watch 90yr old Olga make ultra-fine maccheroncini pasta! | Pasta Grannies

[@theanesumusiyiwa]

I know this might be out of context as to what your channel is about but i love how you show old women as purposeful matriachs. I recently was looking at Goya's sketches and paintings, what moved me a lot was reading how often the older women were vulnerable targets of witch hunts and lynch mobs during times crisis or often abandoned.

[@dee_dee_place]

I agree with you. Pasta Grannies highlights the fact that as you age, your worth doesn't diminish, it actually gets higher. I'd like to see younger people, who have never had Nonnas, try to make the dishes that these lovely, wonderful women make with such ease. Only a lifetime of experience can produce these perfectly made dishes. Possiate vivere 100 anni, nonne!

[@pastagrannies]

Thank you and no, it's not of context - I wanted to put matriarchs centre stage and celebrate them 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky

[@pastagrannies]

Thank you Dee Dee for your appreciation 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky

My great grandmother would put both women and men in their place if they stepped out of their purpose. She had 16 children and worked most of her life. She was born in the 1920s in the industrial Midlands.

[@axion8788]

Not enough is given to the the production quality of Pasta Granies. The filming, directing, editing, etc. that goes into every one of these deeply moving videos. Bravo to Vicky and everyone who makes Pasta Grannies!

[@scottamori3188]

This channel is the best of what KZbin should be. Agreed.

[@pastagrannies]

Thank you very much. 💕We do the best we can as a tribute to the women we film 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky

[@moishglukovsky]

Completed agree. And watching Vicki’s reaction to the delicious food is wonderful, too.

[@roberthennel]

You know the cooking is getting serious when the nonna puts on her glasses! Lovely fresh and simple summer recipe, certainly adding it to my list

[@scottamori3188]

Olga is most certainly a master. She broke out her glasses and then you know it is serious. Her grandchildren and great grandchildren are truly blessed to have such a matriarch. Paired with that sauce I can almost taste it from across the ocean. I truly love the culturally respected place these ladies in all of your videos hold. Another great episode!

[@pastagrannies]

hi Scott, Olga is most definitely a master; I love her dedication to the process with no thought of short cuts. 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky

[@lauramercer6729]

What a healthy and strong 91 yr old Nona! Amazing to watch, and very enjoyable. Pasta looked so good. Thank you for sharing!

[@grouchosaidit5454]

I love that the grannies get the attention they so deserve. They are artists with great talent.

[@jettron1]

"Who could eat that much?"....me, I could eat that much, I could eat that whole bowl of delicious maccheroncini by myself!

[@gilanganeh1]

The only channel that does not insert ads despite the great quality videos.

[@pastagrannies]

I dislike adverts, but they contribute to the running costs. There is a big push behind the scenes to get creators to do mid-rolls as advertising revenues are falling dramatically. So I may have to! best wishes, Vicky

[@Romafood]

Patrimonio italiano 🇮🇹👏

[@SethteviousSmoochie-Wall-mn6sh]

I like how Olgo doesn't even need to measure, she just cuts the maccheroncini by instinct, knowing the width is perfect because it is all muscle memory at this point.

[@meghnamehta7694]

Its unbelievable how skilled these women are.. These cooking skills are priceless talents

[@wtv60]

Really enjoyed this video...as well as reading all the great comments.."purposeful matriarchs" and "ageless women" . Indeed!

[@melaniefisher8823]

Top show on KZbin! I look forward to them every single week!!!!

[@pastagrannies]

That's good to hear Melanie! Thank you for being a fan 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky

[@MonsieurDecent]

Their confidence, relaxed pride and joy in this cooking demonstration is ver6 inspiring ! Thank you !

[@lorendickens6522]

Love these videos of these ageless women. That looks so delicious.

[@ΔιαμαντηςΑφεντακης]

Seniora Olga, I wish to became over 100 years!!! You make pasta and you are amazing!!! Thank you Seniora Olga!!! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

[@Romafood]

😄👏

[@nealieanderson512]

Olga has such lively eyes! I could watch her all day! This looks so delicious!!

[@moishglukovsky]

“Nonna knife.” Best description ever for those ubiquitous knives all the PGs seem to use.

[@sarahp1383]

Too good to be true,... the pasta strands are so delicate . The Nona has magical fingers. When the sauce is blended and the cheese is generously sprinkled , it just makes me want to join in and appreciate the goodness of this delicious dish. Thank you Vicky and the Pasta Granny team for giving us such a superb video.❤

[@amynygaard2483]

Olga (and many of the other grannies!) reminds me so much of my little Slovenian great-grandma, who ruled her kitchen in similar fashion. She passed 30 years ago at 96 yrs old, and I wish so often she could show me how to make some of her specialities. I love Pasta Grannies so much for preserving such treasures of life knowledge!❤❤❤

[@j3annie1963]

Very beautiful looking pasta dough. Olga is a master at her craft. Bruno is very lucky to have such a bountiful garden. All ingredients flavorful, fresh and bright. The disk looks so delicious. thank you for another great video.

[@artycrafty9209]

Oh Vicky that was an incredible video, what amazing ladies and what an amazing dish. How interesting to see this process and they complete it with such ease! thank you team PG it brightened my day. Ramon. x

[@pastagrannies]

I'm glad you enjoyed it Ramon! 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky

[@CHCLA6779]

This looks so good. No wonder her grandchildren and great-grandchildren ask for it. Beautiful ladies - amazing looking food.

[@natiflores8654]

These hard working Nonnas👍lovely ladies 😋😋👍 Blessings 🤗❤️

[@Helt0]

Muito obrigado mesmo por trazer um pouquinho daquele carinho de vovó toda semana 😍

[@jonesbub1]

A simple dish made with the finest ingredients and the greatest love…truly the definition of “delicious!” Olga and Bruna are treasures and we are so lucky that they shared their love of cooking and tradition with us! TFS, Sharon 🤗♥️🍝

[@HeRo-qd6tk]

❤

[@GiuseppeBastarelli]

Not simple at all

[@mariapepper6175]

Oh, that sauce!! Everything prepared with precision, joy, and love. Vicky, thank you for sharing these lovely traditions with us! You, too, have prepared these stories with precision, joy, and love!! God bless our Vicky and our Pasta Grannies! 🙏❤

[@pastagrannies]

Thank you Maria for your appreciation! 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky

[@fabioborgogno8776]

I love that this kind of pasta is identical to Langhe tajarin. Absolutely identical. I didn't know that before this video

[@WipeTheSandOut]

Now that's made with love!! I miss being in italy!

[@josiemorgan5401]

All the pats grannies are just amazing 🙏

[@CrowSkeleton]

Sometimes I start getting jealous of these cooking skills, but then the nonnas will say that they've been doing it ever since they were knee high with a handful of flour, five siblings and the one chicken Mussolini didn't take and I'll go 'nevermind, it's absoloutely fair I don't have skills like that'. This looks delicious and I hope the grandchildren get excited to eat with Olga when they get such fare.

[@Classic--]

This might be my favourite type of pasta

[@kellybryson7754]

That just looks so simple and delicious!

[@ΔιαμαντηςΑφεντακης]

Good evening, beautiful ladies!!! Thank you for the very nice recipe!!! Very beautiful location!!!! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

[@santiagofernandez3215]

Qué artistas !!!

[@yasminroberts2120]

That looks so tasty....These grannies look and move great for their age...

[@pliny8308]

They've made fresh pasta making much more difficult for themselves by having to figure out how to make a dough which will hold up to being cut so thinly. Our mothers and grandmothers constantly challenged themselves to do more and more difficult techniques. It is making the dough by hand which requires the greatest skill. The sauces are easy by comparison.

[@nonenoneonenonenone]

I love the herb choices.

[@JinJinDoe]

Amazing ladies and what a tasty dish.

[@anapierro3432]

genial !! emociona...y la ediciòn tan bien lograda nos permite disfrutar momento a momento !! felicidadesª!!"

[@littlefrank90]

Che pomodori pazzeschi!

[@SegnorRoboto]

It is impressive how much I still have to learn 😄

[@andrewmcfarland57]

That was some serious pasta making skill; but truth be told, they had me at the fresh heirloom tomatoes and basil. 🙂

[@josephvaughan3099]

Looks beautiful, thanks for sharing 🙏😁🇬🇧

[@jennbenn22]

Amazing. Nice job, Grannies. Lol.

[@VerhoevenSimon]

I have to agree, a beautiful dish.

[@murphyr31]

What a great video

[@katielin2379]

How wonderful. Sure looks delicious.

[@annmarieaspromonte1086]

I can taste it from here😂😂😂

[@francescofabioneri9601]

Campofilone ❤❤❤

[@enzoitgoes8335]

So bello. Wonder if there’s a difference between incorporating the pomodoro and cheese inside the bowl versus the wooden cutting board. Clean up would sure be different.

[@pastagrannies]

I suspect it's a habit from the days when folks didn't have bowls. For maximum mixability it would help if it was a platter rather than a bowl? best wishes, Vicky

[@VivaColoratura]

If you need someone to accompany you as a taste tester… I volunteer ☝🏻

[@andrewmcfarland57]

There's a very long line... 🙂

[@pastagrannies]

very true Andrew! 😀

[@hjolley77]

That's amazing Miss Olga. Curious, what kind of board is that? Looks delicious ladies, thank u from Indiana in the United States

[@melissawillison6708]

❤❤, what kind of flour do u use? And I see, she only used eggs,?! I live in US, how can I find flour u used here?

[@francescofabioneri9601]

Use flour of weath 0 Yes only eggs And use 1 egg for 100 g flour

[@jps0117]

Where have the pasta grannies been all my life?

[@STANIS-LA-ROCHELLE]

❤️

[@mikeneidlinger8857]

I like to eat noodles every day.

[@tina01finkele76]

🥰

[@dee_dee_place]

Isn't it extra work to put the sauce & parmesan on the pasta on the wooden board instead of directly on the platter? I would separate the pasta on the wooden board, then put it on the platter & add the sauce & parmesan.

[@ginger942]

The maccheroncini are very thin so in order to dress them completely with the souce, Bruna used the board and then finished the dressing in the serving plate.

[@beautybys9142]

Can you put the audio trace?😊

[@aris1956]

8:47 Here now I'm wondering, why did she season the pasta on that wooden cutting board and then pass it into that soup tureen, into that bowl and not season it directly into that bowl. What would be the difference ? Does that pasta become “tastier” seasoned on the wooden cutting board ?

[@operatube]

I wonder the same too. Also why do they portion out the pasta into paper trays only to combine them again?

[@eds1157]

Perhaps she mixes it on the board for presentation purposes, so the bowl looks clean around the pasta. And I guess they made quite a lot of pasta, so the portions were made so they could dry it in the right amounts to use later. Well, that’s my theory at least!

[@pastagrannies]

the pasta is often gifted, used in the food festival, or sold and it helps to keep a track of portion sizes - there's no point cooking enough for 8 people when only 6 are eating it 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky

[@pastagrannies]

The larger surface area makes it easier and faster to get the strands covered in sauce? Especially when it is all hands on deck at the yearly festival feeding thousands of people. Use a platter not a board if you prefer 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky

[@guguigugu]
