Gina, I made your gnocchi. It was fantastic with the the cheese in it!

Wonderful lady. I feel like I'm her grand daughter watching her teach me to cook. She is so lovely.

What a precious gift she is.

Oh you wonderful lady. You love everybody, but we all love you too, Gina.. God Bless you and thank you for making us happy with your beautiful food.

I don't know why but I'm finding watching Nona Gina cooking so comforting during this time. God bless her and her family for putting together these videos.

Truly a privilege to learn from such a gracious chef, fantastic teacher, and wonderful person! Thank you for your heart felt contributions Gina, and we are sending much love in return.

Her Accent is everything. I just want to hug her.. Sweet Lady..

Gina - you express so genuinely. “We gotta listen, we gotta stay inside.” Your a wonderful inspiration for all of us to have hope. Your daughter and son-in-law are wonderful for taking you into there home for protection.

Wonderful and delicious food.❤

I can see you have lost sleep. Is your family ok? Gina, you are such a sweet person and my heart just breaks for your heart being so worried. May you be blessed with peace, serenity and joy. God bless you and your family here and abroad.

I was just looking for a gnocchi recipe and came across the page of grandma Gina.Such an adorable woman!Thank you for sharing with us your wisdom in cooking,reminding to all of us that preparing food with love is essential.The breaking of her voice when giving advice about covid in italian just made me cry too😪You are everyone's grandma nonna Gina.Stay safe,we love you!🥰un grande abbraccio da un greco che vive in Germania. Il sud Italia è così simile al mio paese🙂. Amo l'Italia🇮🇹🥰🥰

This is such an uplifting video; I wish more people could be like her. It seems that everyone is sort of going crazy nowadays, when really people just need to relax and eat some good Italian food.

Prayers for everyone all over the world. Yes for Italy too. May God guid is all. Gratitude for those on frontline too.

I was having so much anxiety last night with everything going on. Listening to her talk was so relaxing to me! I was able to fall asleep with a smile on my face after watching this! Thank you so much! God bless you and protect you and your whole family! 🙏❤️

I just want to listen to you say "pecorino romano" on loop! Italian is so beautiful...

Made these today - incredible! So light, fluffy and flavorful. If you want to learn to cook literally anything you definitely need to learn from a grandma

People who ever give Gina a thumbs down have no heart, no brains and no Grandma Like this amazing and wonderful lady, she is a blessing from God Almighty for all the world to love.

Gina, you make me feel at home and like a good Nona you make me feel that everything will be alright! I love gnocchi ♥️ thank you for the recipe and I hope you enjoy this time with your family, you are so special! ♥️

I love you nonna Gina, you are truly a gem! Now I’m hungry on my way to work lol. Hugs from Saskatchewan Canada

I could watch her videos all day. love watching her hands as she lovingly prepares her dough and all her meals. She reminds me so much of my mom and grandma. God bless her!

'Until they dance on the water'...what a lovely way to say it...my heart. Hope you are all keeping well and safe over there, and thanks for doing another great video. Lots of love from Ireland x

I felt depressed, due to the lockdown, and loss of work thanks to the virus. But I have to say for 34:29 minutes it felt like my soul was a little bit lifted and got to enjoy myself. Thank you, and God bless.

Dear Grandma Gina, I wish you were my grandma! I love watching you and learning from you. I had 2 grandmas, but they are both gone now and I miss them. So, I will adopt you! Love Sandy

I've made gnocchi with my Nonna many times..This brings back many good memories of my Nonna.. It make me smile because my Nonna never measured it was always a little of this a little of that..As I got older I measured the ingredients so I would know..We always ate the gnocchi with burnt butter and cheese..💕

Stay safe bella Gina. We your fans love you. I’m glad you’re with your daughter. 😘❤️🙋🏻🙏

Ms. Gina... I love your channel. You remind me of my Grandma. The way you talk especially. I loved her so much. She used to cook like you. I wish now that I had spent more time w/ her. Maybe learned Italian... but I was too young. I didn’t realize time was limited. When I watch your videos it brings me back in time to a very happy place. My loving Grandma. She would absolutely ADORE you... I know it.😊 Take care & stay well.

I love the way you explain everything in detailed description. You explain everything in detail and why you do what you’re doing.

How could anyone give you a thumbs down? Such love! Keep cookin Mama Gina.

May God bless you and keep you and your family safe.

There are lot of "chefs" making Italian food on KZread, but Grandma Gina is now my go to channel for those recipes. Her son-in-law is so lucky, she is awesome. I feel like she is my own Grandma teaching me how to cook way out here in California, but from my home state of New Jersey. What a sweet woman! Thanks for the recipes, I'm happy to see you have a cookbook out now too.

“A time will come when everything is ok” I love her and am so inspired by her love of cooking and encouragement.

Now I know why my gnocchi was a failure! Thank you for helping us through this hard time. Stay well, dear Grandma Gina.

Anybody who gave a thumbs down this amazingly precious, loving, woman who took time out of her day to make a video teaching you some traditional Italiano cuisine, ought to be ashamed of themselves God Bless you Nonna Gina

Nonna Gina you spread joy to everyone watching you ..you’re such a blessing a good believer .pray for us

I adore how she adds the southern Italian 'ah' at the end of everything. I'm of Swedish & Irish descent, but have always loved Italian culture and cuisine, and Nonna Gina makes me feel like if I showed up at random she would be so very happy to make me a feast from scratch, just because that's her passion.

Thank you for validating my pronunciation of gnocchi. I hear people pronounce it 'NO-CHEE" or "NO-KEE", but my Italian family has always pronounced it the way you do. To the family of Grandma Gina - My Italian ancestors are gone now, but watching your grandma takes me right back to those days when listening to a strong Italian accent was a normal part of my days growing up. Please appreciate and cherish the treasure you have in your life. And thank you for sharing her with us.😊

Dear Miss Gina, Thank you for another wonderful recipe! May God bless and keep you always! You are a treasure, and we love you! ❤🍝😘

I am so glad you are not alone Grandma.

I could hear her speak all day.❤

Two of my granddaughters (11-yrs and 18-yrs) learned how to make gnocchi from you! We made a huge batch this past spring. Thank you for being such a good teacher! 🍷💕

Thank you so very much for the videos you make. For me, watching you brings back sweet memories of my Grandmother and my Mother, both now gone. Both of their mannerisms were a lot like yours. I miss them both terribly and watching and listening to you is very comforting. Stay safe and God bless.

Gina, I just watched this episode (and I've watched others). You don't know what a wonderful job you do, not only with your cooking, but with your messages about life. You're covid message is brilliant. Find something you love to do while we get through this. Thank you from a loyal fan.

Just like being at my Grandmother's. It makes me happy. I love you and will pray for you.

thank you grandma you’ve made me realize how easy it is to cook gnocchi ❤

I am SO GLAD she made these videos because now the recipes have been shared with not only family, but with the world. And that is priceless.

My mother is 98. Both her parents came to America from Italy as teens. Her mother was from Sicily; her father, Rome. Mom and I are watching this together. It is so heart- warming observing Mom watching Gina with such fascination. Her mother used to make this for a family of 10! Mom saw Gina and said, "oh! She even has the wooden board!" I took a quick picture. I wish I could share her expression with all of you!

My initial thoughts and feelings exactly. In this time when our elders are deemed by some to be inexplicably and criminally (imo) considered expendable, I cannot think of a better example of why such dark and fatalistic thinking should be utterly and totally rejected than this vibrant and loving woman. Our elders are the repository of the knowledge that will sustain us into an uncertain future. Bless you Gina and the same to your family. Hope you are staying safe and healthy.

When I watching a new video from grandma Gina, I always "like" the video first. Because I know I'll enjoy the time with her. : ) Feel like she is preparing food for me with so much love.❤️

I remember as a child helping my nonna and helping my mother form the gnocchi with a fork. Sixty- five years have passed since that time, and you have inspired me to try making them for my family. Thank you so much for this video. Gina is such a gift to this world, and her wonderful team is extraordinary. Her uplifting messages and her genuine care for her viewers are a reflection of her compassionate character and kindness. God Bless you all.

My mom is 88, born in Florence, Italy in 1932. She reminds me of my own momma! Tell her she's the greatest thing to happen to KZread ever!

My mother was from Cosenza, Italy and my father from Foggia, Italy. We made gnoochi when I was a young girl. We didn't use the fork or gnoochi board, just a thumbprint in the middle. That was my job. I love to cook and have so many fond memories growing up in an Italian family. I decided to try Gina's recipe yesterday and the added the cheese, which was a very good brand, did not add much to the flavor for me. I froze most of them since it is only me. I was in Roma in October 2019 and there was a restaurant where the chef was making gnoochi in an open window so you could watch. He used a gnoochi board then place them in a sieve that was in a bowl of flour and semolina mixture, cover them then shake off the access then place on a large board to prepare for cooking in the restaurant. Food is love and with shelter-in-place my outside deep freeze is packed since I take up my days cooking. Tomorrow is homemade fettuccine. Thank you Gina. your family is lucky to have you.

Bless this little grandma.❤️🙏🏼

My family is from nicaragua. Your grandmother ....she make me miss my grandmother :) Such strong personality and beautiful accent. My grandmother was very spansih creole. But oh how I miss her.

Thank You Nona Gina for your beauty, your passion for cooking and your love for your family, friends and your country. You are truly an inspiration. May God continue to keep you and your family healthy and happy during these difficult times. Thank you for sharing your family recipes. I appreciate them. ❤️🙏🏻❤️

Sometimes, I notice that I accidentaly disliked my favorite videos. It happens when you have thumbs too big for your smartphone...

Watching you was quite nostalgic. I'm of Armenian heritage, and I'm 63 this year. All of my family elders are passed. My grandmother was a wonderful cook--and our food memories are so evocative. Thank you for sharing your Italian recipes. My grandmother had no recipes, and if she had, they would have been written in Armenian. I think that I got my cooking talent from her and my mom (which everyone in my life appreciates!). Making these videos makes the recipes and techniques accessible--in perpetuity. I've not made your recipe for homemade gnocchi, but made another. We don't eat that much gnocchi, but I wanted to try making it. It is easy and the end result is delicious. Nothing tastes better than homemade anything. The dish this was featured in was a one pot gnocchi with italian sausage, cream, spinach and garlie with mozzarella. Our family really enjoys it. Thank you for sharing your recipes and techniques.

Gina is such a sweet spirit. It's a joy and an honor to be in the kitchen at her knee, learning all she has to share. 💗 Tonight my Son's fiancé and I will be in the kitchen together, and I'll be teaching her what I learned from Gina today.

Dear Gina, greetings from Tuscany. Even though I live in Italy and I already know the majority of your recipes, I love watching your videos since you're such a sweet person and you remind me of my grandma. Probably that's why watching you cook makes me feel so peaceful. Our Country is bleeding now, but hopefully we'll make it through and come out of this stronger! Be careful (Riguardati)! Un abbraccione!

Please take care during this COVID time. You are so important to so many people!

The more I watch her videos the more I love her 😍❤️ You are such an amazing person nonna Gina!

She just makes me smile!!!

I am so glad you are doing well, please take care of your self and your family, I am praying for everyone in the world. Bless you

I’m not a little kid anymore, but I miss my Grandma and the food she prepared. Thank you, Gina!

Everybody needs a nonna like Gina!

Wonderful! Now that I found you, I can't stop watching your videos. I'm so happy your son-in-law wanted you to make gnocchi. I've made it before, but it didn't turn out as delicious as yours. This demonstration was fantastic! I could watch you cook and bake in the kitchen all day long! I'm also happy your loving daughter is taking such good care of you. 2020 has been a very difficult year for people. I look forward to watching all of your videos!

There’s absolutely nothing I don’t love about watching Gina make good homemade food. Thank you.

You can sense her pain and anguish because of the state of the world battling a deadly virus. I salute you in carrying out a brilliant video inspite of your heartache for your beloved country. Warm hugs and stay strong grandma Gina and high five to the videographer. The sun will shine again on your beloved country.

I ADORE this woman. I smile through the entire video. She gives perfect instructions and why she is doing it. PLEASE FOOD NETWORK. Give her a show. This wonderful Italian grandmother will have the best show of the network!. This is must see TV. I'm so glad I found her.

These videos are priceless to me! My grandparents passed before I was born so I had to pick up what I could from my aunt. My dad's family immigrated from Italy through Ellis Island and my dad was a 1st generation American and WW2 Veteran. I lost him in 2009 at the age of 87. I used to love cooking his favorite foods and you bringing all of these recipes to help me remember how to make a lot of things that I haven't made in years. Cherish the time you have with your family, you never know how long you have with them. 💜FAITH, HOPE & LOVE 💜🙏

... I'm officially adopting you as my new grandma.

By far the best demonstration of making/rolling gnocchi I have ever seen. Made a batch today and it turned out PERFECT!!!!

Being in quarantine with an Italian Grammy is equivalent to living the best life EVER!!!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️ stay safe!

Grandma’s are the best teachers,her voice is so kind. God bless her and keep her safe.What patiences.

Gina you are a national treasure to both Italy and the USA!! god bless!

Listened on my way to Palm Sunday mass and home! Yum! Growing up Italian I miss this beautiful family tradition. You were right- everything passed and we are altogether again✝️❤️

I’ve stumbled upon Grandma Gina’s channel as a gnocchi researcher in search of the perfect gnocchi to impress a girl and I have never felt so supported in any journey before. Grandma Gina, I hope you know how far you reach.

You are the best Grandma !

What a lovely lady ❤ I love her accent, so easy to understand the recipe. Love from London, UK 🇬🇧

Love you too Nonna Gina! Would love to see photos of you and your family in Italy when you talk about the old days.

Thank you so much for this video. It was perfect! I’m so glad that you’re safe in the company of your family! Saúde Gina.

When I was a boy, I would occasionally come home from school and notice a sheet on the bed full of gnocchi's that my mother made. I knew supper was going to be great. It was always a treat. She never used cheese while making them, but that does sound tasty. Gina, your message at the end of the video made my eyes water a bit. Glad you are with your daughter and son-in-law. Be safe. Ciao.

God bless you and your loved ones, so precious.

im just loving this falling asleep in my computer chair to this lady making food while i contemplate my life decisions and where it all went wrong
