    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!

    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. 🍝🇮🇹💚🤍♥🙏

    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?

    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.

    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

    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
