I'm a Puertorican woman who has fallen in love with you. I grew up in the Bronx and you remind me of our next door neighbor Doris who would cook the most fabulous Italian dishes. I loved when she invited us for dinner. You are such a blessing to your family and to us your subscribers. God bless you always with good health and long life. You bring so much joy when you sing. Never stop singing. Love you.

Hey Puerto Rico girls right there with you, Nona Gina is the singing kitchen star. May she always be healthy with high spirits and a song on her lips.ona Gina, please talk to us while ou are cooking!here is just one problem, for all of your fans I believe.even ollowing your recedes step by step, occasionally is not enough. One also needs the right ingredients, mainly meat! This is my biggest problem, getting the right cuts of meat! The best cuts are ridiculously overpriced!m living in beautiful Athens.cio to one and all!

How could anybody give her thumbs down?! ❤️you Nonna Gina. They don't have women like this now of days with such morals and values, that's what's wrong with our world today. Sing Bella Gina😘🙌

You are a beautiful lady Nona. I love when you tell stories and sing. What a joy! My husband purchased your cookbook for me. I absolutely love it! God bless.❤

Every time i watch these videos, I think how lucky you all are to get video of not only family recipes but also such a lovely lady is shared with everyone.

As a Catholic Sister I don't watch much KZread or bother with the internet but being Italian myself who loves to cook your one of the few channels I subscribe to. You bring a smile to my face and heart with your recipes, stories, and religious songs! God bless you Gina and thanks for the happiness you bring.

To the person who liked my comment, Thank you!! This wonderful Lady is a national treasure. So full of life and livieyness, the younger generation could learn so much from her besides cooking. !! Her off-spring are so blessed!! Reminds me me of my own Gran. Just wished she taught me. but boys when I was young didn't think was a boy thing. My loss, so sad. Thank you Gina for being you and sharing!! Long life and many blessings!!

OMG! I wish I could jump into my computer and give her a hug. You can tell her main ingredient in every dish is love. Thank you Miss Gina. You make me proud to be an Italian-American.

Mama Gina, thank you and your family for filming these beautiful videos to share with us on U Tube. In this crazy, busy world, I look forward to seeing you in your kitchen, reminding us to slow down and enjoy each other over a plate of delicious food. God bless you, Mama Gina!

Thank you for again singing for us. Music is the voice of the soul. Yours is surely beautiful.

anyone who is italian can relate to this wonderful woman--God Bless you Gina--brings back so many great memories growing up--her cooking is the B E S T ! !~ !

Every Time she sings I hit the Thumbs up... My grandmother was from Bologna Italy... she would sing while she cooked... Gina brings me back...

Dear Nonna Gina, I am portuguese and when you mentioned La Madonna de Fatima you brought tears to my eyes, may OUR Lady of Fatima bless you and your wonderful family. Thank you for the wonderful recipes and beautiful songs, I tried your tiramisu recipe and your amaretti cookies, both are delicious, thank you the person behind the camera for the wonderful job of writing all the ingredients or explaining the story behind the recipe, or the song, you are amazing, Grazie mille.

Best Grand-Ma on the face of the earth! She is the kindness made woman. Thanks for sharing.

You are right who would DARE give Gina a thumbs down, it is you who deserves the thumbs down! Way to go Gina!,,,,

THAT IS SO BEAUTIFUL THAT NONA AND HER FAMILY WOULD SING TO THE BLESSED MOTHER WHILE THEY COOKED. WHAT A BEAUTIFUL WAY TO PRAY TOGETHER.

Grandma Gina!!! Your channel hasn't been in my recommended feed for so long. I missed so many recipes. Now I'm going to watch all that I have missed for the rest of the holiday weekend. I love you so much Gina. I wish we were neighbors. I'd trade mowing the lawn, washing the car, and taking out the trash, in return for a homemade Steak alla Piazzaola lunch any day of the week. Take care. sincerely, Dean O. :-I

Thank you so much Gina, you are leaving us a legacy. I only wish I would have had the foresight to have filmed my grandmother when she was in the kitchen. Such a treasure, thank you!

I found this adorable woman a couple weeks ago. I watch a video everyday. I love when she sings! I’m so in love.

Gina..I love watching you cook and listening to you sing! You bring me back to my childhood and my family again..This dish happens to be my husband’s favorite. His mother always made it for him just the way you did. Thank you for allowing us to come into your kitchen and learning such wonderful recipes that you present. God Bless You..

It would be an honor to meet this talented lady

My Dear Gina, thank u for another wonderful recipe. I made this for dinner tonight, and it was so good. I wish I could give u a big hug. U see, I married an Italian man, he didn’t like my cooking. I learned how to cook Italian from u. It saved my marriage. So I thank u very much. We luv u 💖

Her family is very lucky to have ❤

My husbands side is Sicilian and his nona taught me how to make authentic sauce. Nonna Gina does it is the exact same👍🏼🙌🏼

I love the way she talks.... her natural accent ...... beautiful to hear ..... her cooking is traditional and natural like her

Have you ever thought about putting Gina’s recipes in a book? I love when she sings, or says the Rosary…her faith and food seem to go together. How about a cookbook based on the liturgical seasons. Traditional meals…Advent through Christmas, Lent through Easter, and Ordinary time meals…I’d love that…and a calendar of Gina during the holidays and holy days! Well, she is the bright spot in my day!

Just hearing her talk brings back so many great memories ❤️❤️❤️❤️

My husband, John, always said the people cooking Italian food on KZread don't know how to cook. Then he saw Gina, and he found all of his favorite dishes and felt so nostalgic for the times when he was growing up and being fed by all of his friends' Grandmas!

I just love watching you cook and sing. You are such a blessing to so many!! I find myself smiling while watching you!! God bless you Gina!!!

In my family I refer to Gina as my grandma since I have none my family smiles. I say let's see what grandma is cooking today. I love her,so cute such a great teacher.

I love it when she sings to us. It reminds me of when my grandmother used to sing to me.

Yay she’s back ! Can’t get enough of gmaw Gina , my 7 year old granddaughter calls her grandma Gina and ask if she has a new video out to watch , so you know she’s touching her soul as well at 7! She loves watching her as much as I do ! And tries taking like her so cute ! 💗 Gmaw Gina in the house!

She brings me so much joy . She is my idol such a fantastic human. I only wish the world had more of her

Momma Gina here at work, watching your you tube before clocking into work, what misery. But you momma Gina---- you are a breathe of fresh air!!!! God Bless you!!! Thank you always for your wonderful Italian food cooking.....gets me through this horrible day of slavery.... God Bless, and keep eating well... 🤓🤓🤓🤓❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Love you momma Gina❤

Normally I don’t like long cooking video, but this one is exceptional. Because I like this Italian grandma, I wish I had one .

Me too i replay it just to hear that.

When I was a little girl my nonna used to make steak pizzaiola using inexpensive steak (like chuck) & browning in pan before cooking low & slow in oven. I remember my favorite part was using the Italian bread to soak up the sauce - I didn't care if I had any steak, as long as I had bread & sauce. ;) p.s. I love your recipes & tonight I'm making your zucchini soup again (my family loves it!)

My meat sauce has improved 1000% just from getting tips here and there from your channel. I feel like I'm in the kitchen with my own grandmother, can't fake this type of genuine spirit.

Thank you for your spiritual singing keep up the good work god will reward you.

I love watching Gina in the kitchen, It brings back so many memories when I was a kid watching my mom and dad cook, Music was playing, Gina is right the main ingredient is love, Thank you for what you do and bring back so many beautiful memories, That was a time when family dinner with family dinner thank you.

Gina is awesome. So genuine. Gotta love this Nonna!

Yay! A new video! Thank you Gina, son-in-law cameraman, daughter and all who help make these videos possible. Thank you for sharing Gina with us!

She’s such a wonderful positive person 😊

I just love her, she calls her sauce gravy which is cute, and even cuter is her 'just follow me' I look forward to all of her videos. She appears to be in very good health, I am 73 and I have difficulty bending like she does. god bless her, keep the recipes coming.

Mom in law was from Rome NY. She taught me to cook a lot of things, I love Italian cooking. Pizza, manicotti, chicken parmesan,stuffed shells, homemade bread,meatballs,sauce, all delicious! I love watching you and hearing you sing 🎶✝️🥰thank you for sharing your time and cooking with us! Lots of 💕

I love when she sings!! ❤💚💜💙

Isn't it sweet that a 9 year old, Valentina, was so inspired by Gina that she made her pot holders the color of the Italian flag.

I made this recipe for my family and it was amazing. The tomato 'gravy' was out of this world. Thank you for sharing

What an absolute gem Gina is!!!

🙏🏽Gracie, Singnora ! Made this for supper tonight and absolutely loved it!! Tastes Justa like my Nonnie would make when I was a little girl! Thank you for keeping the Italian traditions alive , full of love and music... salute to you and your son in law too ! ✨Chin Chin! XX

My mouth watered when Gina cut open the steak on the platter! Brava!🌹

I always feel happier when I watch these videos !!!

I love everything that you cook. Especially your singing 😉.. you make my heart smile... Thank you and God bless you and your family 🙏

How can anyone dislike this lovely lady and her cooking? Keep up the good work!

This was good for my soul. Thank you for the recipe and the song. All love and respect from Arkansas!

Wow...look at that 'money shot' of the cut meat! I was guessing it was going to be overcooked but silly me, Gina knows best! Now I just need to get my tomatoes processed into whole tomatoes and I can make this too. Thank you so much for the delicious recipe and also the wonderful songs. You are priceless and I appreciate all the work you and your family do to put out these videos to share with us out here.

I am in London, UK, is midnight and after watching the video, I am starving I want food, but I am ready for bed. Grazie Gina from a compatriot from the same region of Puglia living in London.

I love this woman, may you live for many many years more. Grandmas are the greatest!!!

My 98 year old Italian mom and I love this video. My grandma who was from Calabria used to make this dish and the singing made my mom and I smile. Wonderful!

I am in heaven watching these wonderful videos! How blessed your children and grandchildren are to have you and your delicious foods!!! God bless are all!

I sing along with you Please sing more when you feel up to it. May God always smile on you.

Thank you for sharing your expertise and the lovely songs. They are just as important as the food. You show your love with every meal . Thank you so very much.

Oh how I love you Gina! You are exactly like my Grandma Angelini who passed away about 50 years ago. She cooked like you and spoke like you and sang songs to us cousins all the time. 23 cousins. She ran a grocery store in Rochester for 50 years. Alone raising 5 children. Her husband died young when my mother was 11. God bless you for making these videos. I treasure YOU!!

Omg! I love this woman🇮🇹 my idle!!! I can watch her all day! And when she starts to sing, it melts my Italian heart🇮🇹❤💚❤

Thank you! You made my Sunday, I thought I was visiting my Nonnie who I miss dearly. You are beautiful and I enjoyed your singing very very much

My mom used to make this with veal as well as steak. I watched this video with my husband and now he wants me to make it for him! 💕

My mother made this often when I was growing up. Dunking good Italian bread in the sauce was the best part.

You are a true blessing from God! I adore, love you and can’t wait to cook and sing in Heaven with you and your Italian family! Thank you for all you give! You are a treasure sweet Gina! ❤❤❤
