جميل ورائع جدا
You were ssso lucky to have a chance to be hosted by 100% locals and enjoy the real deal!!!
Mmmm, my grandfather was from Sant'Angelo Muxaro in southern Sicily. The town has an annual ricotta festival, huge kettles filled with fresh cheese❤
Ricotta festival sounds mouth-watering amazing! Would love to go mmmmm!
This reminds me of being younger, peeking into the kitchen with all the "zias" - my grandmother and her sisters, as they made all these traditional Sicilian dishes for our family to enjoy. Thank you for sharing this.
Thanks for sharing your lovely memory and watching:)
this is what happens all over Italy. family comes together to cook, eat and share their happy times and their woes together. and why the cooking is SSSOOOOOOOO good!!! i miss my grandmothers cooking.
Yes, such an amazing culture and it was so nice to be part of it. Thanks for watching.
I wish you were able to continue the project. This is all very well produced!
Thanks so much! Will try for more:) Really appreciate your generous comment!
This is so interesting! You should have way more views
Haha thanks... please spread the word:)
I can understand you 😊
Thank you for this video! I really want to try it!
There's was a restaurant in Manhattan or Brooklyn that my dad use to take me called Vinny's . And he made these sandwiches. I loved them. Haven't found another place in the US that makes them. So sad. And Vinny was pretty old when I was a kid so I doubt his restaurant is still open.
thank you. San siego Ca.
Thank you!
Modica chocolate is the best. I wish I could find it in the US. I’ve only had it there in Modica.
Yes, if only!
Thank you for this beautiful video! I'm leaving to visit Sicily soon. I'm blessed by JESUS and very thankful I can see where my Nonna came from!!!
Great to hear you enjoyed watching the video. Hope you enjoyed the trip to Sicily!
Reminds me of my Nanna. She was from Cefalu, Sicilia. I miss her. Great video. Grazij!
Cefalu is so beautiful too. Please check out our Sicilian Streetfood episode. Luigi is from Cefalu. Thanks for sharing your comment!
Bread is a staple in Sicilianu food. I still dream of my Nonna's Breadballs and sugo.
Yum yum!
Thanks, I recently found out about my Sicilian heritage and your film has given me a taste of what my native family would've been like.
That's nice to hear:) Glad you enjoyed it.
Beautiful video Beautiful Nona Thankyou 👌
Grazie!
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 !
Hello. What an honour to hear such words. Thank you very much for your encouragement. I'm touched that you and your mother were moved by what we were able to capture and put together. Take care!
i loved the caciocavallo, love the host
Thanks a lot!
cool idea, beautiful place. I love the host's energy
Thanks Timothy!
So weird to here someone so young sound like my Grandfather 😂 they could have been FOB together
Very good video! Hermoso🙏🏽
Glad you liked it. Thanks!
Bro, you made me emotional. When I was child (sadly I older the you) I have been living in Ragusa and I swear God, I'll never forget that such smell of "scacce ragusane which used spread on the roads, main the child's pla had been playing on the road.... and again I remember the smell of the huge bowls with tomato sauce put under the sun to drys ro make" lo stratto". And..... many stuff else.
I'm glad it hit a soft spot for you. Thanks for sharing.
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
Beautiful sentiment bravo
Thanks!
Well done!
Thanks

Your work is beautiful! Thank you for taking us along for your adventures 😊
Thank you so much for your lovely comment. Does mean a lot:)
Awesome video
Thanks!
classic
I really love the way you shot this video, very close, very gently and full of love when you talk about your grandparent.
Thanks... yes, I'm glad that comes through:)
Very well done. Bravi! Warm ricotta with a little hard bread is like a religious experience.
Thanks! Sure is a spiritual moment:)
Love this video but love the beautiful sentiments even more. Sicily is special. We are trying to preserve these traditions. Thank you, Salvo.
Yes, Sicily is special. Thank you for your kind words.
Great videos,a recepi would have been useful,keep up the good work
Dont want to hear political jokes it's all over tv now in food
A quote from the video: "because the mixture has been processed at 45 degrees, the chocolate has not quite melted to the point of liquid, hence, the grainy texture". This is incorrect. The melting point of cocoa butter is 34-38 degrees Celsius. Grainy texture is not related to the temperature of the process, but how finely cacao beans were ground.
Thanks for your input. This is what we were told by the chocolate meister himself so we'll have to agree to disagree.
@@womlocalstories I’ve been to Bonajuto myself a few years back, the point they usually make is not that the cocoa mass itself doesn’t melt, but rather that it doesn’t reach a high enough temperature to completely dissolve the sugar, which will remain grainy. I think the finer points might have gotten lost in translation.
@@IreneSaltini Thanks for letting us know Irene.
@@IreneSaltini True, however a certain quite high temperature would dissolve also "grainy" grinded cocoa. Though this is not the case for eg. +/10°C temperature differences, so I would also say it has to do more with the sugar contained. Im just eating some other chocolate made as per the Modica cold procedure and it is definetly the sugar (which in my case also means whole cane sugar - not refined and not crystallized - and which is even more difficult to have it melted), so of course it remains to be different with the chocolate shown, as I have not tried this one. Love
stigghiola! did you try it? I am from palermo! the best streetfood on the planet!
No I didn't. Definitely next time!
if anyone likes dark chocolate the Modica chocolate is a must try!
Yeah, it's a winner!
Just got some delivered yummy
@@janeenradha8562 super good!
you should be proud for sharing the traditional way of doing things! love this video, you are showing everything I would have liked to see when I was a kid! my grandma did her best to show me as many things she could when I was a kid and she was younger. keep making this amazing content, as a youtuber myself I am taking a lot of inspiration from your videos!
Thanks for your kind words, Dario! Really happy you feel that way. Yeah, we need to keep all our grandma's/grandpa's great way of cooking things; a recipe is one thing but seeing it is another as you obviously know seeing you have your own channel! Keep up the good work on your stuff too:)
@@womlocalstories thanks for checking my channel, I can't wait to see more of your videos, they are very well made and also very entertaining
amazing video! very good quality, I'm very happy about this video! but are 90°c or 90°f? I can't understand how he can handle a 90°c cheese!
Thanks Dario! It's 90 degrees fahrenheit!
@@womlocalstories that's what I thought 😂
Very moving stuff. Mouth-watering too of course!! Love it
Thanks for the kind words!
Should’ve tried the intestine. I imagine that it would remind me of motsunabe in Fukuoka. Lol
I actually do like motsu so yeah, should've!
Very professionally done. Good job! I’m going to Sicily in July myself. Look forward to more videos from you.
Thanks! Been working on the website and social stuff before we release more. Follow us on Insta @wordofmouth_localstories to be on the pulse!
