For non-italians, I'll summerize this video for you: My name is Francesco and I am 36 years old. I was born and raised in Italy in Emilia-Romagna. This is relevant, because my region was voted by the Time Magazine the best in the World for food, some years ago. My grandmother was a seventh degree black belt in cooking. My mother never cooked until her late fifties and she's pretty good. "Pretty good" in Italy means "oh my God never let this woman leave the Country" in almost every other part of Planet Earth. On land and seas. Or below the seas. Because of that, I picked up cooking. I can fight, and I let the other be the judges. Still, I NEVER heard of Mamma Rosa's egg plant recipe. But being italian gives me the power of judging a good or a bad dish by just looking at it. I would probably eat not less than 25 lbs. of Mamma Rosa spicy egg plants and I'm not even so stoked about spicy food but GOD, these are deliciuos. Ragù is a traditional bolognese condiment, and I'm from Bologna. Every houshold had his ragù. It's a poor people's dish, it's very cultural and ther is no perfect recipe. Yes, there is one that is taken as the original, but it's really not. There is a method, not a recipe. Me myself, I have always said Ragù is like Kung-Fu: all schools practice it, and it's all Kung-Fu, so no one is THE Kung-Fu. Mine is Wu-Tang style (and you better get the reference). This to say the beauty of italian cuisine is in Mamma Rosa's spicy egg plants: it's not a cuisine, it's the people. The video is amazing, the parmigiana is wonderful, you are a lovely couple and probably the REALLY good thing coming out of the pandemic up until now!

Living 1 hour from Italy I tried it many times, Italian food is okay but believe me, the falvors of Asia, The carribean etc, they are something else with the most exotic fruits and vegetables you can imagine, flavors beyond. I admit, the US and Europe and Eastern europe probably have the poorest cuisine and in Europe Italy would be among the best BUT to compare it to the rest of the world.... NO CHANCE

Found out the group of Italians living downstairs hadn't brought one with them and were desperate for proper coffee. Mokas were pretty much impossible to find outside of Italy in those days so l used to leave mine outside their door as l left for work and collect it when l got home. After a few nights of this they invited me for dinner to say thank you and cooked MELANZANE ALLA PARMIGIANA . Oh my God. I thought l had died and gone to heaven! Made them teach me how to make it and made it EVERY NIGHT FOR TWO WEEKS. They thought l was mad but l didn't care. Even though l love eggplant in lots of ways, its still one of my favourite dishes!

Eva's incredible merit is to pick up, love, and treasure traditional recipes so well as she does in her loving, cute way us youtubers are lucky to see, because the real thing is she has behind her a mountain of tradition that's embodied by her family which I imagine very numerous, very respectful and honouring of the past, and families like this are responsible for carrying traditions over the generations, imagine them like avalanches. Not all accept, or care, to burden themselves with such responsibility because some of us want to feel free, because we still live in Italy, so we conclude let someone else do it, and if I lived abroad I'd probably just eat local food and besides I'm not fond of roots, I want to be a free citizen of the world etc. Fortunately many who leave their countries love them even more, and need to infact treasure their roots like she does, which is very moving, and Eva's love for her family and her country is so clear her eyes sparkle when she thinks about it and her mom, it's probably the main reason I watch these videos, to see those moments of pure love. Finally something so weird and unique like chocolate dipped eggplants is one of those beautiful odd little "secrets" that for some reason only history can give, because it's the type of creativity that people in the past had, it's like a dish ancient romans would eat, it's the "rock food of the ages", if you know what I mean.

Never thought an Eggplant would be used for a dessert item, most Intriguing.

Maybe you guys should do a whole series of exploring different vegetable themed dishes. I would recommend fennel next. I wasn’t raised with fennel and have no idea how to use it properly.

Eva cooked with all her heart, and i would heart her beautiful hands for this reason. I had a really bad day...but this video brought so much love and joy for life out in me. 💗 Love the spirit you both are rising.💗

I love this channel because I cook for a lot of people with food restrictions. That last dish is perfect because it’s low FODMAP (I’d probably substitute the garlic for garlic infused oil, but it still works in that regard), dairy free, gluten free, and vegan. Finally, I can cook for everyone.

I am Brazilian but from Italian heritage and my German husband used to hate eggplants until I cooked it for him :) Now he even asks for eggplant dishes!

Thank you! I made the Parmigiana di Melanzane tonight. I have been making my family's recipe for decades with the dredge, egg and breadcrumbs. This recipe rocks. It is much better than my family recipe because the breadcrumbs tend to weigh down the eggplant and mute the taste. Molto Bene!

When I was a kid I never liked eggplant though my parents ate it all the time. Now I can't get enough of it! One of my favorite ways, and my folks too, was to slice it down the middle and bake it face down. When finished she'd scrape it and mix it with garlic, lemon juice and s &p. I appreciate how good this spread is now. My parents are gone but when I eat this they are there right next to me!!

Yes, I agree eggplant is delicious. And if you're into gardening even a little bit, they're easy to grow. To prove that point, even I can successfully grow eggplant!

I find them hard to grow in Canada. The warm season isn't long enough it seems.

🌟 Buongiorno ... I'm having my espresso ☕ & watching ( I couldn't wait for today ) My garden has beautiful aubergine 🍆 LOVE them 💗 ... Eva & Harper have a wonderful Sunday ...Enjoy ... Stay Safe & Much Love ~

I just made Melanzane di Mamma Rosa as a side dish for our lunch and it was an amazing success. One of the best eggplant dishes I've ever had, thank you so much for the recipe and thank you to Mamma Rosa!

I really love watching the two of you. Eva seems like a wonderful person who loves to life and loves cooking.

Eva never fails! I love you Eva!!!!!!!

I want to see Eva go to Italian restaurants here in the U.S. (not just Olive Garden) and have her judge their dishes based on authenticity and taste.

Maurizio Navarra thanks now I have another show to watch. Fun stuff. But I am still very interested in hearing Eva’s opinions specifically.

I don't think Olive Garden would permit cameras, lights and tripods to be carried into the restaurant. Besides, if OG is very displeased with Eva and Harper's review, they may ban them from the restaurants for life, and that may not be a risk worth taking.

Summer Tummer hahaha Eva shitting on Olive Garden food would be golden! I was imagining more authentic Italian restaurants albeit with American- Italian recipes. I want to see Eva like something that’s American-Italian, I like what is cooked at home, because it’s just not made well and wonder if she’s just missing out because she’s not exposed to the good stuff.

He got the jackpot 🎰!! she is charming and has great style plus she is a great cook 👩🏻‍🍳 full of passion and craft!! Simplicity is everything

I rewatched your eggplant video and decided next weekend I am making several to all of them. I love eggplants. I use to grow them in my garden. I look forward to your new shows all the time.

My phone listens to my conversations. Just a couple of days ago, I was telling a friend that I need to find ways to enjoy eggplant that don't include breading, deep frying, and smothering in sauce & cheese. And then KZread suggested this video. Challenge accepted ☺️.

Also, new life goal: find a man who looks at me like Harper looks at Eva after he takes a bite of her food. Adorable 🥰.

This was amazing!! Makes me want to fly to Southern Italy immediately! Loved the chemistry between you two

I have watched this several times. I am so impressed with this wonderful Wife! She is a Blessing! Molto Bene Senora! ♥️♥️

I’ve watched this video again and again. I agree that the roasted eggplant dish is AMAZING. I’ve made it four times this summer using my garden’s Chinese String eggplant. I’m sure I’ll love the others as well But this video in general is one of my all time favs. You guys are awesome ❤️
