- 95 year old Rosa's dish is a speciality of the Ipirnia region of Campania: ciambutellla (the stewed pepper and tomato sauce) con cicatelli (the cavatelli pasta). It's a great summer pasta dish, so start growing your veggies and basil now, because you want produce that's full of flavour! The giant-leaved basil is called 'Napoletano Bolloso' and makes a good change from Genovese basil.
For the pasta, use 500g of semola rimacinata (durum wheat flour) and 250ml of water. For the sauce, use 3 peppers, preferably round 'Calabrese' ones which are fleshy, but bell ones will do, 4 garlic cloves, 4 large fresh tomatoes and 400ml passata, salt, olive oil, a handful of fresh basil leaves.
If you are going to bottle this mixture, omit the garlic (add it when you use the sauce in cooking), and boil sterilised and filled jars in a large pan for 20 minutes (Rosa recommends).
PS this dish incidentally vegan. - Krátké a kreslené filmy
Rosa is a pasta granny not to be messed with.
She is, as we say in Italy, a true "Carabiniere" ! :)
I think 7:56 might be the greatest moment ever in this series..... Vicky: Buonissimo! Molte buono! Rosa: Tell me something I don't know....
Savage, haha.
😂
That shrug! 😂😂😂
I thought “Ooo, you got a friendly one this time !”
Bless her….❤
My goodness you found a serious one this time! What a strong woman and her pasta dish looks fantastic! Thanks Vicky & Crew!❤❤❤
Vicky, your videos are nothing short of amazing, with just the right amount of production value and editing that enhances instead of distracts. I have both cookbooks, and are eagerly awaiting whenever you decide to do the third! The concept is so deceptively brilliant. These are the people who deserve to be heard and have their skills passed down to the next generation. For years I have relied on the cookbooks published by church parishes and small town organizations, but the value of being able to watch a recipe being prepared by the author using their old world grit and know how, makes all the difference.
Thanks Doug, I'm delighted you appreciate both the videos and the recipes. 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky
Those ladies walking hand-in-hand 💖😭💖
It was so sweet to see Rosa holding hands with her SIL while they walked to the garden and she made me giggle when she didn’t want to talk! That’s a strong willed Granny! The sauce looked amazing and my mouth was watering and I was a bit jelly watching you enjoy the dish of pasta! TFS, Sharon🤗♥️🍝
Rosa seemed stern, but lovable, as I think she was a bit nervous and didn't want to make any mistakes. Great video!
hi Sharon, you are right Rosa was very nervous. We filmed the part in the field the next day and she was much more relaxed as she was used to us by then! 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky
The kitchen wall is an unpaid actor ! I loved it.
I love that Rosa & her SIL hold hands while walking together.
I wondered why Rosa didn't smile; she was missing a tooth. What a sweet Woman.
I'm going to try & make this dish. It looks fabulous.
Italians do that - I had a friend from Italy who liked to walk arm in arm.
Wondering if "missing a tooth in the mouth" might be an Italian idiom lost in translation in this instance? (And also might be literal....)
Rosa is a no nonsense lady much like both of my Abruzzese grandmothers. Love your videos.
It never ceases to amaze me how the humble tomato became one of the cornerstones of Italian cuisine.
The spiciest pepper here is a Rosa, what a darling (in a kick ass sort of way) 🌶
The way she shouts, hilarious 😅
Haha that little insouciant shrug at the end... "of course it's good, what did you expect I would make?"
It’s like, “Yeah, what do you know?” 😂
Nonna Rosa sembra un vero carabiniere ! È una tosta ! :)
My nonna was born in Campania- she had exactly the same dialect as Rosa, how lovely to hear it again 😊 Much like Rosa and all the other long-lived southern italian nonni, my nonno kept a beautiful garden where he grew seasonal vegetables, fruit and kept chickens. My nonna used herbs fresh from the garden and would cook the most delicious but simple dishes- pasta, minestrone, pizza- it was all incredible. My nonno would often come to visit laden with produce - fresh figs, eggs and cut flowers from nonna’s flower garden as well- its truly the key to longevity.
What a lovely memory, thank you for sharing it. 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky
I love these elderly people, they have experienced so much in their life that nowadays we can only read to understand, they're part of the history and they cook the most authentic and traditional food, they are precious
Another dynamo of a lady. That sauce must be otherworldly with those vegetables from her sister in law’s garden. I love that those two ladies see each other daily. A blessed family to be sure. Thanks!😊
hi Scott, there was no stage direction involved, the ladies held hands naturally which was very touching to observe 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky
She’s been eating fresh grown food all her life with no preservatives. Stays active all the time. That’s how you live to 95. My grandfather lived to 93, was the same way and even smoked and drank.
Ciao nonna, saluti dalla Turchia. Ti seguo con piacere. Essendo un fanatico della pasta e della cucina italiana, mi piacciono molto i contenuti come questo. Ti amo dalla Turchia.. ♥️ Viva l'Italia
Active lifestyle, strong family and relationships, valued- not ignored or devalued for her experiences and wisdom...all go into a long life. I wish I had videos of some of the things my mom used to cook. Her family will have these videos for years!
Rosa is almost deaf, and that's why she yells. I know this because I've lost part of my hearing and I speak louder because it. The cavatelli and peppers looks yummy. Much respect for all her hard work. Grazie!
I loved her traditional sayings 😄😄, my mom also says that if someone is tall, they are only good for getting figs 😂😂😂😂. My husband is 193cm tall, and he is good for getting figs from the higher branches 😂😂😂😂. He is good for other things too😊. What a character Rosa is, my one granny was Rosa, she was short and formidable😊 and didn't take nonsense from anyone.
I like how she mentioned she’s missing a tooth. Pasta looks incredible
Fantastic women, they don't make them like that anymore.... all my love and respect for these wonderful women there should be a sanctuary for them so they're aren't forgotten ❤️ ♥️ 💜
Oh Miss Rosa I could watch you and listen to you all day! Wish i could taste your wonderful dish!!
Love her! A no nonsense nonna like my nonna was. Always love seeing the nonna knife in use and having spent all of my summers growing up in Campania, I can smell the fragrant basil. 😘
Rosa's Granddaughter is a stunner!
I can see her in her heyday chasing wayward children with her pasta roller while they ran for their lives!🤭 Something tells me they still do!😂 What an absolute gem❣
How lovely and comforting to see these two women walking hand in hand. There is nothing like the "old ways". The pasta and sauce look heavenly! Rosa, you are still so beautiful in spite of a missing tooth!! God love you!! Vicky, thank you for your efforts in bringing a captivating video time after time!! 🙏❤🕊
It's our pleasure Maria! 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky
What a beautiful and strong woman ❤❤❤.. thank u for letting us meet you!! Your family is very lucky❤
Agreed 😊
My father's family comes from a town right next to Grotta Minarda, hearing this lady speak in dialetto was like hearing a memory of my grandparents from the past :)
Wow! I hope and pray that we reach this age with a fit mind like her.Godbless her.
I love all the nonnas ❤❤❤ thank you for tirelessly producing these videos ❤
That women can cook. Bless her
To Vicky & crew, thank you for keeping older traditions current. Love the work you do!
Thank you for being a fan! 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky
Che dolce signora,gli auguro altri 96 anni di salute e serenità ❤
God Bless Her! I can’t believe the stamina she has at her age!
This chanel is life! I adore this wonderful women ❤ We can feel the joy they have for life.
This is one tough nonna!
Wow, she seems to be a fantastic model and that dish looks delicious!💞💞💞
Her technique is remarkable!
I have never seen basil like that, but gosh this looks delicious. I'm glad everyone stayed and had some, though I get the impression Rosa isn't someone you could say 'no' to if you tried...doing all her laundry by hand so she can see that every corner is scrubbed, dang.
Brilliant, Rosa is fabulous!
Rosa is a lot like my Brooklyn mom; same age and same attitude. 😂
95!
The benefits of sunshine and fresh food are evident.
Shame in have to live in the UK
Hi Vicky, I always enjoy watching your videos. It reminds me a lot of my paternal grandmother, Cristina, from Bisaccia, a town about 40 kilometers from where that lady lives.
I remember her placing the boar to make the dough on two chairs and her sitting on a third one, because she was used to it that way. It was a spectacle to see the speed she made Orecchiette, Cavatelli and Marcannali. Not easy, at all. I knew that peperonata is called "ciambotta" there around , because I heard my aunt pronounce that dialect word, but I didn't know its origin and I learned it thanks to an English lady...this teaches us that we must be humble, keep our ears open and that we can learn something interesting from anyone.
Have a great Easter 🐣
I've been doing Pasta Grannies for nearly 10 years and I'm still learning! 😁 We filmed lovely signora using a board between 2 chairs when we were in Calabria: czcams.com/video/VTqC3xRV6gw/video.html best wishes, Vicky
She’s a master rolling them.
This ladies have lovely lives, I want to be like them!
It never gets old! Grazie.
We love a confident granny! God bless you Rosa
Great woman. Just look at that sugo!!!❤❤❤. Regards, Stephen.
Italian pasta! It's a Heaven!! 😋😋😋😋
Amazing ❤ Mrs. Rosa you are glorious 😊
😱 I love her so much!
OMG. I LOVe Rosa!!
Questa donna e una nonna capo!💚
Looks amazing
Che meraviglia 😋😍😍😍😍
Che buono😂. Mi piace moltissimo la nonna 😍😂
Mmmh....Buonissimo!
How wonderful... I'm an American from Calabrese grandparents and we used to make something similar called ciambotta - it had peppers and tomato but onions, eggplant, zucchini and sometimes mushrooms. It was pretty common around here because so many of us have Calabrese origins but you don't see it as often anymore. I make it in the summer when people give me vegetables from their gardens. And Italian women are formidable housekeepers! In my grandma's house, you could eat off the floor.
That’s what we called it, too. Very common in the summer…with great bread and grated pecorino Romano 😊
yes, the kitchens are always immaculate! I'm sorry the recipe isn't as popular anymore - it's good one. 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky
Eu amo ver esses vídeos e me dá fome 😋
Ok folks, this is great but it's not only in the south, we have also northern dishes with rich flavours that your will make your mouth froth ;)
I miss my Nonna 😢

Spettacolare
I LOVE IT WHEN IT'S VEGAN 😍

She's a scary Nonna...
Don't mess with her or her pasta!! 😂❤
the shrug, she know it is good because she know what she is doing :)

I know, modernity isn't all bad! 😁 Great that you made the pasta 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Based grandma
Good video
Thank you!
How are all these Nonnas over 90 and looking 20 years younger? Italian super powers?
I think they are a product of a particular set of circumstances - very little automation/convenience, food scarcity well into middle age (and therefore their frugal habits continued), introduction of public health service and of course a set of very strong family and community connections. 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky
Don't mess with grannie rosa
I have the cookbook "Pasta Grannies."
You know any olive oil that comes from a bottle like that has to be some good local stuff
No cheese no egg.... perfectly vegan!
there is egg in the dough that's why is so yellow
@@Elixir9 no there isn't.
@@Elixir9no there’s no eggs , as is the tradition of southern handmade pasta … the yellow color is given by the flour she used, semola rimacinata, specially if it was an artisanal one…. Some southern flours , when are semola di grano duro, are really yellow
Yep. Lovely.
That’s what it’s so easy to be vegan in Italy. Lots of simple dishes which are enhanced by the flavours and high quality vegetables and sauces.
🌷💐🙏
Why Rosa angry the lady who test the pasta first say pasta buonissima Rosa reply e mangia 😂😂😂
🇧🇷 Brazil is on 🇧🇷
Her lack of humour reminds me of my Italian grandmother, Rosina. I remember once on a visit to Italy as a child, my nonna Rosina was milking her goat, which wasn't exactly a pet. As I loved all animals, I decided to stroke the goat. The goat took fright and kicked the milk over. Needless to say, nonna Rosina was not best pleased. I think these peasant grandmothers had such hard lives that joviality wasn't part of their lives. My grandmother came from a small village in the 😢Veneto called Lozzo Atestino.
Certainly this generation experienced hard lives and thank you for sharing your memories. Though with the women who appear on this channel, do remember it's scary to have 4 strangers in your kitchen filming your every move. 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky
❤🙏🌻🇮🇹🌳🛎️
Bin enttäuscht, das es diesmal keinen deutschen untertitel gibt.
And it's completely vegan as well!
I’m curious about the taste of the Calabrese peppers. Are they similar to bell peppers? I read in the description that bell peppers are suggested if Calabrese peppers are unavailable.
I think they taste more intensely of peppers, but that could be the sunshine and soil. Bell peppers are a good swap. 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky
Dnt fuss wirh her 😂
Ah. A vegetarian dish. No surprises that she has lived this long.
It is a vegan/ fasting recipe, isn't it?
noodle with no cheese , no meat.. and bread ????.... sounds no good
I guess this was one of the two or three episodes I didn't enjoy, to be honest...
