Sicilian Food Nostalgia for Mamma and Nonnas' Cooking in Italy
This episode is an homage to Sicily's food culture and food tradition; food nostalgia to be specific.
Salvo is a proud local Sicilian from Modica, a humble ancient city situated at the southern tip of Italy. He reminisces over his childhood when everything he ate was handmade by his mamma and nonna.
As society becomes more digitally connected and we seem to have less time to prepare our own meals, pursuing a more convenient, faster, busier life, what are we leaving behind?
This episode will take you on a journey of warm nostalgia, rustic bread-making and familial bond. Enjoy watching a Sicilian family make home-made bread the traditional way.

And..... many stuff else.

One of my aunts lived in Ragusa many years ago. She lived in Iblea, a few times I would visit her, and sometimes she would make a scacciata for me to take with me on my way back to Vizzini. It was so absolutely delicious, and to this day I have never found anyone else that can make scacciata like my aunt.

@@titanus49 I know perfect Ragusa Ibla, which is a really barocco treasure. I remeber when I was child (it means many many years ago) Ragusa Ibla was been forgot causa the major part of citizens were moved in tha moder side of Ragusa and he seemed a ghost town...Fortunaly last time it was found out and became one of the best tourist place througout Sicily
Very good video! Hermoso🙏🏽

Hello Sir I would like to compliment you and your videographer skills, for this series has been the best modern day video on Italian life/food (even in old footage I have never seen the dough mixing technique). You have done so well I hope you continue, if not with food documentation than with another topic. But great job, my mother was shocked and so happy to see her background, thank you !
