very lovely how she talks about living one day at a time, without a schedule, always ready to have someone over and be available for friends. we should learn something from this.
Feeding the crumbs to the chickens - waste not, want not - you could see her being so careful to get every bit. Brava! 🐤
I love these two ladies. You can see they want to jump in and take over the cooking when it is the turn of the other, but they don’t. They each obviously rule their own kitchens. The restraint shown is amusing. The finished dish looks delicious
Charming! Whether it’s beet root originally added to make red velvet cake or oats added to ground meat to make meatloaf, the addition of bean flour speaks to creatively and family care during challenging economic times!
I always sens this videos to my grannie, she's 79 years old and love how care people make pasta, and the natural handmade process. Thank you all, God bless you. Greetings from Ecuador! 🥰
I never tire of watching these master craftswomen roll pasta.
I was thinking “mushroom sauce” the second you mentioned it. Something about the rusticness of those noodles calls for shrooms! And the love for your neighbors needs is the highlight of another great episode. Love my pasta grannies!
Small town rural community living. These women have known and helped each other for decades. This is what happens in small villages globally. It’s what urbanization has destroyed. I love the focus of celebrating rural living.
The life and pride these ladies exude is an inspiration. Another great episode.
Big hugs to you both Elda and Clorinda from the west coast of Canada 🌼🙂🌼 Thank you!
Proof that healthy local food plenty of movement and the environment results in a higher quality of life! That looks delicious!!
Und wieder ein großartiger Beitrag! Keinen einzigen möchte ich versäumen! Herzlichen Dank an alle, die daran beteiligt sind!!!!!!🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗 ......Wenn es nur einen deutschen Untertitel gäbe, das wär soooo schön!!!!!!
I do not believe that Elda can be 92 years of age, she defies age because she is from that hard working generation. What i would give for a taste of that incredible dish, very green with jealousy! Thank you everyone. Ramon.

hi Ramon, Elda is remarkable and is a splendid example of being active and sociable, eating frugally, keeps one youthful. 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky
They are so lucky to be in their own beautiful country !
What wonderful friends…and cooks!!! The pasta and sauce looks so very delicious and the friendliness of their kitchen is very inviting. TFS, Sharon🍝😊
WOW...I loved this video. 💚Elda & Clorinda both looks amazing for their age... Their skin looks so healthy!. They look much much much younger then their age. Thank you for sharing where the beans were grown & the mill. Those two gentlemen work hard, the reward of producing and selling good quality product is much appreciated. 🙏 We as a planet need to get back to growning our own food. In the US these traditions have been lost just in a 100+ when the immigrants from Europe came to the USA. This is sad. We are a sick nation because our food has so many chemicals & dye additives in them added by evil corporations to intentionally make us sick. Elda you have a beautiful smile!! Chloinda what a wonderful neighbor you are for sharing with your good friend & vise versa. This is a beautiful freindship!! Thank you Elda for opening up your lovely home for all of us to witness your tradition pasta making & your wonderful friend Clorinda thank you for making the beautfiul sauce. 🍝🇮🇹💚🤍♥🙏
Just yesterday Marche region suffered from a devastating flooding. Hope that the two ladies are safe ♥️

Once again a magnificent episode, and I love the tradition of those chopping boards, and that people still use the same one decades later.
Un altro regalo meraviglioso offertoci da Pasta Grannies oltre che dalla manualità della Signora Elda e della gentile aiutante. Complimenti ancora una volta e grazie di tutto!
Beautiful nonne, great food, and a very lucky Rudolfo to be chosen as the taster.
I've never missed a new video since I found this wonderful channel! You always have such lovely Grannies making wonderful dishes, love every episode.

Vicky, I received my PGCC cookbook yesterday and have already read it from cover to cover. You might say I devoured it. I certainly loved it. I hope you receive similar acclaim as you did for the first one. What a joy to read and revisit the Grannies!

hi Didi, yes, isn't it interesting; we're almost back at the time of year when chestnut flour starts making an appearance.🌺 🙂 best wishes Vicky
Love the look of that tacconi pasta. Looks like there's real sauce grabbing texture to each noodle & that it'd have great mouthfeel. Big fan of beans & fava in particular. They can be used in so many ways as they can make things like mash, pastes & savoury set moulds that can be sliced. Having a lovely day, not only do I have a new Pasta Grannies video to watch; my copy of Pasta Grannies II; Comfort Cooking arrived today! So I've been curled up on the couch, pot of tea & some crackers reading away & making plans on what the first thing I try from it will be. Excellent book so far & I've watched enough of your videos that I read it in your voice in my head. [Odd habit I know, but I like how a book flows in the authors voice in my internal dialogue.]. Haven't tried the QR code thing with each recipe yet but its a clever idea. Many thanks Vicky, hope the sales are going well?

hi James, I like the idea of of a broad bean savoury mould. Thanks very much for buying the book - I'm delighted you are enjoying it. Do let me know which recipes you try! And thanks for asking; the publishers are happy with pre-orders. best wishes, Vicky
In our area we mixed wheat flour with chestnut flour to make the wheat flour last longer. Cucina Povera, or "Food of the Poor". It gives a bit of sweet nuttiness to the sfoglia. I love Elda's hair. Just like my grandmother and great grandmother and aunts and great aunts, the hair stays thick and dark with only a sprinkling of grey even into quite advanced old age. We make a somewhat similar sauce, but no pepperoncino or basil, and instead a bit of rosemary.

Again, thank you for your efforts to record all this valuable culinary history.
Thank you soooo much for this beautiful and lovely vidéo ❤❤❤
Lovely ladies and AWESOME show❤❤
Would you be so kind as to put the closed captions in black. It is very hard to read in white print.
That looks absolutely delicious!
This is interesting knowing about 2 different kinds of flour

Thanks for another great video. I’ve used chickpea flour for flatbreads, but never for pasta. Since we don’t have broad bean flour I guess that’s the next best thing.
Always a treat!
thanks for your recipes , they are delicious, you are adorable, greetings for Argentina.
Oh gosh that looks sooooo gooood!
Looks yummy!
That looks DELICIOUS !
Perfect 👌🤩
Hey ladies you are real pro's
That's beautiful looking pasta I imagine that goes well with the mushroom sauce too, I'm also thinking walnuts, tiny cubes of squash and blue cheese for autumn. I have two large guanciale at the moment cured by my pig owning friend, now I just need to get my hands on the correct flour here in the UK.

At the end I would add a little Parmigiano or Pecorino and it would be a perfect dish for me. 😋👍
Miam-miam 😋❤
My aunt from Le Marche is the one who taught me how to make pasta. My family is of Calabrese origin so her food always seemed different, but her pasta melts in your mouth. As often as I've been to Rome and eaten at my cousin's houses, I do not like guanciale at all. Like these ladies, they don't brown it and it's almost pure fat, which I can't stomach. I wind up discreetly putting it off to the side of my plate.
Fascinating. Did you get to taste it too? I'd be very interested to know what the bean flour adds to the taste. Is it a more bitter pasta? Is it sweeter or does it have a different texture? I'd love it if you could always taste it to share that kind of thing. Thanks.

hi Lisa, the flavour of bean flour is mild and its addition makes the texture of the pasta a little less smooth. The result is a more rustic ribbon.🌺🙂 best wishes, Vicky

I love this series, but I wish you would describe the flavours and textures of the pasta. That would be more engaging, as food is taste and texture, also fragrance, so viewers who want to try this, understand more about the gustatory experience it will give.
anch' io intono la sigla appena parte 😌🎵🎵
😊🤗💐
Probably goes great with a nice chianti and some meat.
Where can I get an Italian wife that can cook like that!Yum!
For the love of god, learn how to say ‘pasta’.

hi Matt, my Italian tutor from Sardegna says I say pasta correctly. My Italian colleagues agree. The pronunciation in America appears to be 'pah-sta' but the long 'a' isn't used in Italian (my tutor says). Perhaps we can agree that we still understand each other, regardless of our accents. 🙂 best wishes, Vicky
