I love how she notes that God raises the dough! In all of her recipes where risen dough is used, she adds the yeast but she gives God the credit for actually raising the dough. You have great wisdom Gina, wisdom that's born of years of experience that's been passed down in your family and passed on to your children and their children, just like it's supposed to happen.

I used to watch my Mom cook all the time and watching Gina brings back so many fond memories that it makes me miss my Mom so much, sometimes I start to cry because I think of my Mom and how much I miss her . I know she is in heaven and I will see her some day. We lived in New Jersey too. Keep making these wonderful videos. You are a treasure. God bless you and your family!! Lots of love!! ♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏

Gina's easter songs this year got me very emotional with what is happening everywhere. Thank you Gina ❤ All my prayers to our neighbors in Italy and Spain, to the US may you all be protected, please guys stay confined at home as what we are living in Europe is just the most awful time of our lives. May we all be united against covid19 this Easter. Be safe. Love from France 🇨🇵🇺🇸🙏 and Gina I will make those easter breads this year thinking about you and your beautiful songs. God bless you ❤😘

This video brought back so many memories of my grandma growing up in Brooklyn, NY. I remember the Easter bread she made was exactly like the ones Gina made here. I'm 66 years old now and grandma is long gone, but I still have the rolling pin she always used and use it whenever I bake. These cooking and baking traditions are so important to keep alive from generation to generation. Grazie mille, Gina.

🥰. In these difficult times you are a pure joy to watch. I remember making Easter bread with my Nonna many years ago. Making bread feeds the soul. Showing a whole new generation watching the old method of preparing a meal, & making bread especially is better than anything to keep us calm.❤️😘❤️👍👍👍👍👍🤗

We raise the bread, we think of Jesus. I will remember this forever! Love her!

After adopting several of your recipes, I decided to buy the e-book (Kindle) so that I could have them at hand in my tablet. The recipes are so clearly written, however my conclusion is that there’s nothing better than the videos, where we can actually enjoy your presence and sweet personality trying to transmit to us your culinary knowledge up to the minimum detail. Thank you grandma, God bless you and keep you in good health for many, many years! ❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

My absolute favorite. But we like a little anise extract or anise seed in the dough. Beautiful.

Oh Gina what have I done! I made your Easter bread and give it away as gifts and now all I hear is “When are you going to bring me more of that delicious bread. I just bought 50 pounds of flour! LOL I love your recipes and you remind me of my mother who was born In Asiago

Thank you for displaying how to not waste food by getting every little bit, a concept people these days need to think about. The time may come they will be very glad they did.

God Bless Nona Gina.....fearless...not afraid to give Glory to God. I make Easter Ukrainian Bread which is very similar....but I will always make the sign of the cross over all of my bread and food from now on. We should all be fearless in speaking of and thanking our God ....don't let anyone take that away from the world. Let us be bold like Nona Gina.

My mother used to make this every year. Thanks for the reminder. I will be making this at Easter.

In my head I call you Grandma Gina 😁 I watch you everyday and keep singing

You have inspired me and my boyfriend to learn Italian! My grandma is first generation American (78 now).

I MADE YOUR EASTER BREAD FOR THE 1st TIME! It was fantastic! Bravo! The only thing I need to adjust is the BUTTER - it occurred to me that you use SALTED BUTTER, like my mother - she always used the salted butter. Today, unsalted butter is the norm so that cooks & bakers can adjust their own likes. I suggest that you tell your younger audience to use salted butter. I would like to share the symbolism behind the bread: This Easter bread is shaped like a wreath to symbolize the crown of thorns worn by Jesus Christ. It is also braided beforehand with three pieces of dough to represent the Holy Trinity: The Father, The Son, & the Holy Spirit. And finally, the eggs in the bread represent rebirth. God bless you, Gina, and your family.

My husbands family is from Cosenza, Calabria. My mother-in-love is no longer able to cook. Watching Gina, brings mom back to me. Blessings ❤️

Nona Gina you remind me of my Nona making bread in the kitchen and singing! God bless you! Thank you for giving us all memories that last a life time! I cherish all your recipes and most of all you beautiful spirit! Muito Amore!!!

Two kitchens one for everyday and other for company always clean!! Love grandma 🥰

This lady has become "the grandmother" par excellance! I simply love her! What she offers is a piece of culture, every time! I wish her the best God can give her in this life and best protection in Paradise!

This brought so many wonderful memories of my Italian Grandma and watching her cook and bake, when I was a child. Thank you for bringing those memories of a special woman in my life, back. Grandma called this Egg Bread. I think I will make one this Easter. I hope Grandma would be proud! Blessings!

Just wanted to say that Gina, you have such a beautiful soul! You remind me so much of my Nonna that passed away last year. She would have LOVED watching you and your recipes. Were from Massachusetts and know how important the Italian culture is and how important it is to carry on past family recipes. My Nonna was from Bonito Italy. Thank you for making me feel so happy while watching these videos

My mom used to make this every year. When she developed breast cancer and had a mastectomy she lost strength and could no longer roll the dough. I had to go to her house and roll the dough. Your video brought back those great memories. Haven't thought about that in years. She's gone now 28 years but great memories. Thanks.

Hello Dear, Beloved Grandma Gina, I love you so much when you sing, but I adore you because I didn't like to cook before, but thanks to you, now I already dare to cook and bake, you have been my inspiration to enjoy cooking that why I adore you, thank you so much and have a wonderful Easter weekend, a lot of hugs for you!!!

Dear Gina, I'm a Turkish guy who lives in Germany. I've been watching your videos for so long, and I just wanted to express my gratitude for the feeling you give while you're making your amazing Italian food. The way you explain the recipes, the way you find your way around the kitchen, and the softness of your voice (especially when you sing your Italian folk music) reminds me so much of my own grandma, who is no longer with us. She was the reason I'm obsessed with cooking so thank you for making me feel like I'm watching her again. We have a special and exclusive way of expressing our respect to the elders in Turkey, and it's by kissing the hand (pretty much like one would kiss a Capo's hand) and then touch the hand on our forehead. It's the ultimate way of showing respect and humility. Please accept my virtual hand kisses, and share more of your amazing recipes. I can tell that you have a very loving family, because the apple does not fall far from the tree, and I wish you a long and happy life with them. Grazie mille e cordiali saluti!
