Italian food has a very long tradition, but perhaps the most important date in Italian culinary history is October 12, 1492. Why? Because that was the fateful day when Christopher Columbus landed on the shores of the Americas and European culture was exposed to a whole new world (no pun intended) of ingredients.
Who could imagine Italian food without tomatoes? Or how about peppers and potatoes? These are all New World vegetables that changed Italian cuisine forever.
While Christopher Columbus is a highly controversial figure these days, we decided to celebrate the contribution of the Americas to Italian cuisine with three dishes that did not, and could not, exist before his fateful voyage.
Happy Columbus Day and Indigenous People's Day!

It's kind of amazing that my favorite show is made by a young couple with a cell phone in their kitchen. No writers, no crew, no producers.
😁 Thank you! That’s the best compliment we could receive! ❤️
The best things in life aren't planned
Harper was involved with the film and music video industry in hollywood. Im thinking he probably has more than a cell phone.
Nope! Just me and my phone
Harper's statement, "Nope, just me and my cellphone" reminded me of my favorite quote in a movie. The movie actually wasn't that good. But Al Pacino talks about being in bed with a girl. She walks to the bathroom. Triies to walk. And looks back. Was I just with the Trojan Army? No. Just little old me.
This is one of the channels that prove you dont need fancy cameras to produce quality content
Thank you!
You don’t need fancy camera, but if you aren’t using a tripod and a monitor to see what you are filming, you sure do need a second person to help film to produce quality contenr lol.
Also, with how advanced the cameras are in our cell phones these days, they would most definitely be considered “fancy“ compared to how they were say 15 years ago. Cell phone cameras today are really amazing in their technology with how far they have come in advancement!
They are even more advanced than digital cameras from only awhile ago that were entirely devoted to *just* taking pictures in the late 90s/early 2000s. I specifically remember photos taken from such devices being *extremely* low resolution. A lot of people forget just how fast technology has advanced over the last couple of decades.
Not only are the cameras very advanced in our cell phones, but many of our cell phones/smart pads are even more advanced than low-end cheap computers, _on top of having excellent camera tech in them._
The last recipe was too hard to make :( I followed step by step but I ended up eating the nutella off the jar with a spoon. I faiiiled 😭
😂😂😂😂😂
@OurJapanHomeStyle Merry an Italian woman. All food problems will be disappear. ;)
Mohamad it happens to the best of us try it with bannanas on bread oh my god i could be like Eva in the hospitol from to much
@@PastaGrammar im so surprised to see Eva eating and enjoying Nutella (American Nutella anyway). I understand that Italian Nutella though by the same folks is a different recipe. Less sweet and more nutty and many Europeans cant stand the American stuff. ???
Eva here. Nutella in America is much more sweet than the European one and yes, I had it but I’ll be happier to eat the original one! 😉
In a perfect world, the Pastagrammarians had a daily show (and you’d be hoping for them to go hourly).
❤❤❤❤
Ah, I agree. But we must realize that this show has just two producers/talents filming from a Maine farmhouse all on their own. Quite remarkable!
@dillinger dillinger you know this is a cooking page, right?
Try this.

Colonialism/ imperialism changed not only Italian and European cuisine, but world cuisine. Also, Zucchini is a variety of squash developed in Italy, but squashes are New World foods.
I’ll never get tired of Harper’s reaction to one of Eva’s dishes... starts with a grin... then, “it’s good.... it’s so good....”
as northern italian I cried a bit looking at Eva and Harper liking so much Polenta! I swear that it is my favourite northern dish, specially with the marvellous "Os Bus" (braised veal
)
or with "Fontina" to make "Polenta Concia". I would like to see Eva make more North Italian dishes! Love u guys!
Viva la Polenta Taragna!
La polenta Piace anche a me, Prima volta che l'ho provata ero a Bolzano, Buonissimo ( a me piace tutti piatti Italiani ) - Non sono Italiano ! Viva Italia
@dillinger dillinger mammaaa che pesantezza !!!🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
@dillinger dillinger Bruh, I don't give a shit about Cristopher Columbus, I was just talking about food... if you have to blame something don't do it with italians, Columbus was a Spanish guy, we just grew American vegetables in our lands
@@Sid_LS Well .... Cristoforo Colombo was certainly Italian because he was born in Genoa. But he certainly acted in the name and on behalf of the Spanish Crown. The vegetables were certainly not brought to Europe by the Italians but by the Spaniards. Italy at the time was not even a state, it was a nation in the soul but, politically, it was divided into many small states, each one faithful to a different European nation and all faithful to the Pope. But you're right .. we made those vegetables grow damn well in our land ... they have become MASTERPIECES
America is named after Amerigo Vespucci, the Italian explorer who set forth the then revolutionary concept that the lands that Christopher Columbus sailed to in 1492 were part of a separate continent. A map created in 1507 by Martin Waldseemüller was the first to depict this new continent with the name "America," a Latinized version of "Amerigo"- straight from the Library of Congress. Eva strikes again!
And he arrived in what is now Venezuela
There is also this proposal by BristolianAlfred Hudd:
In 1908, the local Bristol antiquarian Alfred Hudd first proposed the theory that the word America had evolved from Amerike or ap Meryk. Hudd proposed his theory in a paper which was read at 21 May 1908 meeting of the Clifton Antiquarian Club, and which appeared in Volume 7 of the club's Proceedings. While Hudd's speculation has found support from more than one 21st century author, who expanded Hudd's argument by speculations about the Matthew, and with theories supposing a connection between the ap Meric coat of arms and the design of the Stars and Stripes, there is no hard proof to substantiate the theory that Cabot named America after Richard Ameryk.The consensus view continues to be that America is named after Amerigo Vespucci, the Italian explorer
@@cerys424 yes, just another theory
Harper’s Italian great-grandfather was named Amerigo. He was the first child in his family to be born in America. His mother was pregnant with him when the family sailed to the new world from Naples.
@@sallyalexander8625 that's awesome!
Harper, have you never had home fried potatoes with onions and bell peppers??? Standard breakfast side dish. Eva, your dishes look delicious. 😂😂😂 ✌❤🌹
First thing that popped into my mind as well. One of my favorite breakfast sides 🤗
Exactly
Potatoes O'Brien
I was thinking the same thing! Lol
And fairly common in diners in New England.
8:41 Harper and Eva joking about that recipe being hard
Me struggling to open Nutella jar and giving up
😂 Wtf?
Things that aren't arthritis freindly...
10:40 In German schools they teach that the term America comes from Amerigo Vespucci too.
We learn that too in Argentina, but they teach the name in spanish as Américo
Same in Colombia! Américo Vespucio
In Austria too !
Sorry my mistake. Of course he´s called AmeriCo... ;)
Same in Peru
However, polenta is an ancient Italian dish that is also widespread in central Italy. Before the discovery of the Americas it was made with spelled or buckwheat (farro o grano saraceno). It was called "polenta bigia" (it is also described by Alessandro Manzoni in "I promessi sposi" !) it is still cooked today instead of the one made with corn flour
I mean dish? It's just a mush made with cereals. I wouldnt call it 'made' its mush. The corn part is what makes it.
Romanorum puls 😂
Potatoes and peppers? Home fries with green and red peppers and onions. 👌
Potatoes O'Brien
I cook fried potatoes, onions, sometimes peppers and smoked sausage
Not really uncommon
Thought that. Breakfast. Toss sausage in and an egg.
@@michellebuazard1743 Yes, a favorite dish of mine; a transplanted Louisianian in Texas. Polenta is also great.. . kinda like shrimp and grits :)
Eva: doctor i’m sick cause I ate something...
Doctor: what is it?
Eva: too much nutella
Doctor: 👁👄👁
Honestly? As a kid, I used to love Nutella. Over the years, the recipe has changed... and not for the better. If at all feasible, I suggest you find yourself a jar of Gianduja, which is basically the real stuff. The REAL, real stuff. It is... divine.
The problem is in Italy the doctors would have prescribed Nutella as the cure! 😂
Oh look...a self righteous keyboard warrior. Why put such a comment on a FOOD CHANNEL. Don't turn such a splendid video (and channel) into a poison soup of your own negative thoughts.
@@Artsificial Nutella here in the States is a different recipe from the Nutella that is sold in Italy. The principal difference is substituting corn syrup solids (what the hell are "syrup solids"?) For the sugar used in the Italian version.
I was perfectly happy eating Nutella here in the United States, right up until I spent a month in Turin.
You very much can taste the difference.
Here in the southern states we eat corn grits alot, especially for breakfast. It's basically polenta
I love homemade grits.
Grits don't have the creaminess of polenta. I love polenta, can only handle grits if they are cheesy.
I love grits, more sweet and savoury. American food is great
@@alexandercolic405 They do if you add half n half and butter to them like I do ;-)
I've only had pre-packaged tube polenta and while it was tasty I'm not sure it was the best example or not. I love my grits, and [if you put enough butter in them] they are very creamy, lol 😊😁😂
Potatoes are not native to North America but to South America, specifically Perú, were pepper and potato combinations are very common.
As well as red tomates, chilis and, of course, potatoes.
@No One Indeed... Mexico has a few peppers indigenous to the country.
The America that Colombus discovered is the whole continent not the country(he don't even set a foot on North America)
@@Manya-fr4uq he didn't discover shit. We Natives were already here.
@@Manya-fr4uq also ignores the fact vikings came before.
Polenta.... one of life’s simplest treasures.
Eva! You're the best! Thank you for sharing a bit of the north with your viewers. When people in North America think about Italian food, we're left out of the conversation more. You made this Canadian-born polentone smile :) Spezzatino e polenta is one of my favourites, especially once the weather gets colder. Comfort food at its best! Grazie mille!
😍😍😍😍😍
I have to comment again I think you two are the greatest couple. I love the way you both interact with one another. There is always love in what you both create. You both deserve a life of happiness and many many many happy years together. Thank you both for making my day so happy watching you TWO....
Eva cuts those vegetables like a bad ass ...
In Texas, especially South Texas, we make a dish very similar to this. We call it papas a la mexicana. We add onion to the peppers (usually Serrano or jalapeño depending how spicy you want it), potatoes, and tomatoes. It’s the best! We also use olive oil to cook it in and season with salt and pepper. Look it up on CZcams. Some people might put garlic in it but we never did in our home. Just 4 simple ingredients with olive oil, salt and pepper. The Southwestern regions of the US cook their potatoes very similar to your style with bell peppers.
Sorry to disappoint, but that's from Mexico, not Texas.
@@gonzoducks8 You are correct, it is a Mexican dish that is common in Texas as Texas has a large Spanish/Mexican influence, especially, the region I live in. My family roots originate from Texas which is why I said Texas. Our food is considered Tex-Mex as it is our own and not as traditional as Mexican cuisine; it’s close but not exact.
Northern Mexico and Southern Texas share a lot of customs and food because people immigrated to and from those regions for centuries.
My grandparents came to the USA from Calabria. Grandma used to cook potatoes and banana peppers (not bell peppers) all the time for my grandfather in the mornings. I lived with my grandparents the summer of 1966 and would wake up to that smell that just drew you to the kitchen. She would pick the peppers out and put them on fresh home made Italian Rolls. Thank you Eva for showing the real southern Italian cooking that I grew up with.
I actually love Eva's old school way of slicing vegetables..goes to show her good control of the utensils
I miss spuds (potatoes) as back in England we have fish and chips, mashed spuds, roasted spuds, baked spuds ..... Hope Harper does the washing up Eva as you do all the work girl! Great show as always xx
Harper has such pretty eyes, only made prettier by the way he looks at his beloved. True love, sweet and salty, just like life. Appreciate you both so much!
I love it how Harper just asks Eva if she can show him ' cause he knows he' ll eat like a king ! Polenta rulz !!
potatoes peppers onions and sausage , quite a classic north american dish is one dish :)
You guys are Soo down to earth, it's fun watching your videos, however I wish we were neighbors, that way I could gladly help taste test everything 😂
I remember learning about this in Plant Classification. Literally every plant you used in the first dish is in the Family Solanaceae, aka the Nightshades, most/all of which came from the New World in the 1500s and on. Eggplant is in this family as well. My professor also pointed out that noodles were originally from Asia. But while all these ingredients and concepts are borrowed from other countries, it’s the refined technique that makes it Italian. 👍
What’s interesting about the Solanaceae is that so many are quite frighteningly toxic! And yet we eat huge numbers of the non toxic ones.
....noodles and spaghetti are two utterly different things with no connection between them.
@@extremathule982 It is proven that there were pasta makers in Sicily way before Marco Polo
If the Italians do not discover things first, they can still find out how to make them make the most of them
I often think about it : Corn, Tomato, Beans, Pumpkin, Pepper, Chile, Cacao ... these all arrived to Europe quite lately actually.
Picture Spain, Greece, Portugal, France and Italia without all those vegetables.
Picture USA or Mexico without Onions, bread, beef, wine, beer, lettuce, Coffee or Chicken.
Those foods were meant to meet with or without Colombus and Imperialisms.
The destiny of Tomato was to meet with Olive, Garlic and Onion at some point, no doubt about it.
I am from France, and I think 1789 is a very important date, not only because of the French Revolution, but also because that's the reported date when our dear Italian neighbors invented the Pizza :-)
Coffee from east africa, coconuts, mangos and SUGARCANE from south/south east asia/pacific, most commonly used spices also. But europeans brought with them different cattle . so many ingredients from all over the place.
If You Tube gave an award for best hair Eva wins hands down. Her food is also amazing. Love the channel, you are both great.
I love to spread Polenta on a cutting board and let it cool off. I then cut it into squares and fry it in a pan until the outside gets golden & crispy. I serve it with a simple tomato sugo and some shaved off parmigiano on top - very simple dish but super delicious.
Grill it when it's cold. Worth a try
Salvatore de robbio Thanks, I will certainly give that a try next time 👍
Yes, very good, the fried or toasted polenta triangles with sausages and tomatoes, olive tapenade or cheese
Natalie Yes, they seem to work well with so many things...
Also you can cut the polenta into thick slices, smear the slices with butter, grate parmigiano on top and place into oven until butter and cheese have melted and polenta goes slightly crispy. Also good heated in oven with butter and when hot spinkle with granulated sugar and eat!
Harper, Eva is ALWAYS right.
Yes, it is quite staggering just how wrong - and often - that Harper is............................ 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hey now... 😂
@@forearthbelow Common marriage... ;)
Once for my job I found myself at dinner with several executives and lawyers in an exclusive penthouse dining room over looking St. Louis and I was having Salmon and Polenta, when I was asked if I was enjoying my very expensive meal, I replied I am just a simple boy from the south but this is almost as good as my Grandma's fish and grits ! She made canned sockeye salmon and grits for dinner a couple of times a month. I love to watch Eva try American regional foods (your road trip is one of my favorite videos!) Get her some grits and biscuits and gravy !
I’ve been doing nothing but binge watching your shows! When you cooked the peppers and potatoes, reminds me of something I haven’t made in years. I make the same thing, but without the spicy peppers, and I cooked with Italian sausage and put on a hoagie.! Best ever!
To be precise polenta is a very ancient dish, that existed since ancient romans time (and maybe before), but instead of corn they used farro or other cereals.
Fun fact: it was a dish so common amongst romans that earned them the nickname "pultiferi" (polenta eaters) among neighboring peoples.
That is basically the same nickname (polentoni) southern italians give to northern italians for the same reason.
Very interesting.
If your definition of polenta is "coarsly ground cereals of any kind boiled in water until they turn into something resembling porridge", the stuff pre-dates Rome way more than Rome pre-dates us. There are findings from the paleolithic era (i.e. more than 10,000 years ago!) that indicate wild cereals processed into porridge.
Im from slovenia (small country borthering on north italy) and polenta is also our classical dish. Polenta and goulash is to die for. Really good.
🌟 Buongiorno , Having my espresso ☕ .Taking it easy to day , I have MS and the pain
is elevated . Hope your week ahead is wonderful .Stay Safe😷&💗Much Love ~😈🔺🦋P.S That is the most *BELLA POLENTA I've ever seen*
Hope you feel better soon
I love the way that the two of you interact with each other! You both love the food, but I can tell that you love each other more than you love the food.
You know what I love the most is Harper's genuine love for your cooking. Any chance of sending it to Thailand hahaha
Great looking dishes and I can only imagine how good they smell and taste. Can't wait to try to make them by myself. We also cook corn that way and call it palenta as well! The last one is in its own class 😍 Its really hard to imagine what would our European cuisine look like without all of these awesome American ingredients. Greetings from Bosnia and happy Columbus day!
I'm always hungry for Eva's food, everything looks SO good! wishing I lived next door! Thank u for sharing your recipes, you are the best! 🤗
I just love how much fun you two have doing this! I binge watch so fast I forget to save the recipes. But! It Eva’s techniques that really shine. Thank you!
Another amazing and delicious video!!! The classical music really worked perfectly :) Thanks Guys!
Eva's English is so cute...Italians females are lovely & so sweet...
I’m a fan of Pre-Colombian Native American history. The three dishes presented here all have their antecedents in Native American culture.
The impact on Europe of Native American foods brought back by European explorers cannot be understated. Europe had difficulties for millennia maintaining large populations. Much of that was due to much of European staple diet being dependent on grain crops like wheat, barley, bulgar, etc., that were highly susceptible to diseases and blights, and required ideal soil conditions, plus they were not tolerant to extremes of temperature and precipitation. Too hot, too cold, not enough rain, too much rain and these crops would fail. Thus Europe was afflicted with endless cycles of famine which limited population growth.
So the addition of more hearty and robust Native American staple crops like maize, potatoes, beans and squash had a huge impact on European human development and population growth.
So Italians do owe a tremendous debt to the original discoverers of America for their agricultural products.
Christopher Columbus also brought back another gift from Native Americans that had a tremendous impact in Europe. Syphilis. The disease of Kings.
Why should You BE fan of such bloody history? Tribes vs Tribes
Italian sausage, peppers and potatoes, oven baked with olive oil, salt and pepper. One of my all-time favorites.
Bello! La cucina Italiana dopo Colombo è cambiata tantissimo. Complimenti per questo video !!!
Potatoes and peppers = home fries that we Americans eat for breakfast.
I love making it once in awhile with sliced kielbasa/sausage. The fat and oils of everything together is something unique and delicious.
PCgamer923 I make that too, with all kinds of sausages :)
Peperonata a colazione?!? E a mezzogiorno? Topi morti? (Nessuno a parte gli italiani capirà la citazione😂)

Eva and Harper, thank you for your video logs, can't wait to see more.
I love Italian food and I am always amazed by how many ingredients are not native to Europe. Basil is from India. Garlic and onions are from China. Tomatoes are from South america. All citrus is from Asia. The list goes on! Blows my mind!
LOL I went to buy groceries yesterday morning and felt strangely compelled to buy peppers and potatoes! Peperonata is GO then, the universe has spoken.
Oh man- that second recipe- polenta and meat stew, looks AMAZING!🥰🥰🥰
You are the best I love Italian culture and food.
You teach me many great things
Most of the ingredients actually came from south america...except corn
If you intended Old World Corn, yes you are right.
But if you call Mais as "Corn" as Americans use to do, then you are wrong, because Mais originated from America.
And the ingredients originated from Central America, not Southern, except potatoes that originated from Peruvian Andes Mountains.
@@raffaeleirlanda6966
You misunderstood, what I said was most were from South America except corn. Because corn is from Central America (Mexico). Tomatoes and capsicum are from South America as well as central America and like you said potatoes from only South America.
@@stevenbalekic5683 😐 México Is North America not Central
@@nevarez7L
Yes most people know this, but many people call the countries between the USA and Colombia Central America. Even though, like the Middle East, it is not a continent but a region.
@@stevenbalekic5683 Ok, but let's call it like it is, not like US people think it is, so maybe somebody who does not know this can learn something :)

potatoes and peppers are a huge part of american breakfast cuisine! home fries usually include peppers and onions
Very good Eva "Brasato con polenta" One of my favorite dishes (sono milanese...) Mi hai fatto venire l'acquolina in bocca... (untanslatable) Siete troppo simpatici!!
Grazie!
In English we say:.It made my mouth water!
@@robertolucarini7137 Of course, same thing in German, Spanish, Danish....
I recently discovered you guys and I am catching up with the episodes; I have always been fascinated with the relationship between European cuisine and new world foods so bravo for this! (Tomatoes were accepted in Europe before America where they were thought to be poisonous...) Eva cooks the most authentic Southern Italian I have seen anywhere and I am looking forward to a cookbook!
And pitch a show to PBS!
my family is from Northern Italy... polenta is a staple ♡♡ thanks for your videos... makes me miss my nona ♡♡
At the end of this video one wonders what the world would have been without America, without Italy and the Italians.
Viva l’America ! 🇺🇸 Viva l’Italia ! 🇮🇹👍
Just to start, America would not have been called “America” without the Italians.....and then all the rest !
Great video Eva and Harper....Tomatoes and cocoa originated in Mexico and Potatoes in Peru. Italians have made their mark in all the Americas North, Central and South America. In Peru Northern Italians introduced the Pannettone or Paneton that is known in Spanish now baked in Peru and exported to countries all over the world, In Argentina the Fugazza. In my country Panama bags are cartuchos based on the Italian word cartuccio, and we buy our cakes in Dulcerias or in Italian Dolceria. So both ways the Americas influenced Italian cooking and the different migrations of Italian migrants from various parts of Italy in North, Central or South America have set their mark in the countries that they settled.
Best cooking program ever receipes not known to me as an Italian born in the uk love how you delve into villages receipes real Italian fiesta
Thanks for the sanity break. You guys make my day. Ciao, franco
My god Harper you are lucky. Look at all the dishes you get to have. Protect her.
It's always so enjoyable to follow you (both). Eva, unfortunately I couldn't smell your polenta. it looked great! And finally the usual irony I love, I laughed a lot when you said that the final dish was very difficult to prepare and finally it was bread and Nutella hahaha I thought one thing: it would be great if you create a series called "One region, one dish", I don't mean every week, about once every 2 or 4 weeks. This would allow you to have a looong series, so you have the contents for many videos (when the 20 regions are over, you can start again with other dishes). It would also be great because in this way you can show your non-Italian followers the high complexity and variety of Italian cuisine (it could also have a didactic value if you add a short geographical introduction). Perhaps it can also be a challenge for you, Eva, because you will probably have to prepare some dishes you have never prepared, I think it could be stimulating. Hope you'll consider the idea. Bye!
Thank you for the great idea!
It bears some similarities to the two episode road trip they did last summer, featuring the signature American foods from each area.
I second that idea!
Put your soul in peace, the current regions are only administrative divisions, the reality of the country's cuisine is that there are thousands of different dishes without counting the variations and that many of these are not present in restaurants but only in homes. Will never be known by foreigners, the same goes for cheeses, wines, desserts, preserves, cured meats, vegetables of all kinds, the variety of the territory and the love for the culture of food have produced one of the most varied landscapes in the world in little space!
I’d like to see a few pre-Columbus Italian recipes. I love your channel. You two are great together!
Thank you!
How did Eva get to know so much about food and the regions of Italy, as a former culinary instructor I find her culinary knowledge incredible.
Any Indian here will understand that the first dish resembles an Indian Dish “Aloo ShimlaMirch” (Potato & Capsicum).
Aaj khaya mene(ngl).
Ya
In Nepal also
Actually very Calabrese dish 100% Pepe e pata! hello Beautiful Calabria Eva you have graced this channel with all things beautiful from Calabria viva le Cakabrese!!!💖💖💖
Indian and Italian are very similar in culture. David Rocco Dolce India shows similarly and live between two countries. Anyone who have visted india and Italy will tell that. I think food is a great bond of love among countries. Food is a great tool to spread peace, and respect
He didn’t discover America. This country had already natives!
That's right Captain Obvious, but he discovered a New Continent from the point of view of the Europeans...
couchpotato it’s not liberal to have respect for a WHOLE ENTIRE TWO CONTINENTS THAT HAD LIVE IN IT ALREADY WITH THEIR OWN GOVERNMENTS AND RULINGS.
Thank you. People are still stupid enough to believe the narrative of how natives were “savages” when they had it all well figured out for many years before.
Yes the natives got exposed to old world virus and thus died. White people had no idea what was going on. They just saw the natives dying and thought wow god loves us.
thatsnotagoodidea yeah but that’s just ONE thing they did, that they didn’t know about. But there’s so much more that they did to eradicate the natives.

I capture everything and Eva you made me live Italian food.thank you from the bottom of my heart
I suppose the secret of the first plate is Calabrian Pipi. 🤣
Harper why are you still smiling?
Ciao belli! 😂💕
Grazie tanto, now I understand why I thought Eva was calling the peppers, Bibi. Pipi makes so much more sense but I never heard them called Pipi in Abruzzo.
Sorry, you are both wrong. In North America, a "Pipi", or "pee-pee", is a slang term ......... for penis.
@@carolmerlini9971 Sorry, you are both wrong. In North America, a "Pipi", or "pee-pee", is a slang term ......... for penis.
@@acanadianineurope814 I knew it, man. I'm Italian, like Eva and we were jokin bout pipi pasta and pee pee which have the same pronunciation in Italian, but absolutely a different meaning in English 🤣
Video idea: Eva trying fast food (from big chains like McDonalds or Taco Bell). Also, Eva’s accent is so beautiful!! I love your videos!!
Hash Browns harper!! We always sliced potatoes thin and fried them in a skillet with peppers onion a bit of salt and a LOT of fresh black pepper for breakfast. Eat it with fried eggs on top and make sure you get some nice dark bits when cooking
I’m so obsessed with your channel ❤️ I’m learning so much!
❤️❤️
History and Food, I've learnt so much from you guys! Love from NZ ♥️♥️
In Indiana, we call polenta "mush." It's delicious no matter what it's called.
Down south, we know that as yellow grits! Our grits are usually white.
I love you guys! I've seen all of your videos! notification squad!
BRAVO! Now I know what I'm having for dinner tonight, all of it! Great video!
I'm legit suprised the Italian is so fond of Nutella, isnt the natural homemade version waaay better? I'd like to see a video about that.
In Italy we eat Nutella since childhood. We are literally addicted to it... And homemade version requires many time to be made... Just only 2,59 Euro for a jar are absolutely a quick way to fulfill any sweet desires. 😁
The pernigotti version is way better
We owe the Natives big time for letting us borrow the ingredients tha made Italian cousine great. That said, anyone got those ingredients but we made them shine. Great video
"Borrow" dumb comment you Cant borrow ingredients like That
I love this young couple. It makes me happy to see how happy this young couple is. God bless them.
Eva you really should make a cookbook. You are truly amazing. Watching you taste your food makes me hungry. You too Harper are also the best.
Your Version Of Nutella History is not very accurate, In fact After World War II, cocoa was extremely scarce. Ferrero, originally from Piedmont in Italy, turned this tricky problem into a smart solution, creating a sweet paste made from hazelnuts, sugar, and just a little of the rare cocoa. The ancestor of Nutella was born.
This was discussed deeply on one channel, if I remember it I'll let you know!
Actually was more of a fraud. the area of Alba (where the Ferrero family is originally from) is rich in hazelnuts (and are delicious). He thought of replacing cocoa with hazelnuts powder as nobody would ever notice the difference. And the recipe is still kept secret
There is a lot of ignorance about these things, nutella is a cream that descends directly from the famous Turin chocolates called Gianduiotti that were born around 1865...
@@GDG-qq2oy Actually Chocolate Gianduia made mixing Choco with Hazelnuts originated in Piedmont in 1806 when French Emperor Napoleon I made the Continental Blockade and prohibited European states any importing - exporting trade with United Kigdom in order to made British isles commerce collapsing thus Britain resposed with sequesters of ships from nations controlled by Napoleon.
Chocolate became a very rare product, and Pastry Chefs started finding new solutions to this shortage. Gianduia chocolate was a very brilliant and tasty solution. Later in 1852 Turin Chef Patisser Michele Prochet created more refined Gianduia cream mixing chocolate with extremely fine minced hazelnuts, but it was starting with Carnival of 1865 that Piedmont industry Caffarel created little chocolates made with Gianduia cream base and called Gianduiotti that obtained an extraordinary success... 😀😎😘
One North American dish that combines potatoes and vegetables is Potatoes O'Brien. Cmon Harper!
Doh! You’re right! I knew I must be missing something 🤦♂️
I was gonna say they sell it frozen in the grocery store! 🤣😂
This is an Irish American dish
@@irishpixierose It originated in Boston, MA
@@eazyshippuden7932 from the Irish. But there are disputes as to it's origins. Some say it originated in Manhattan.
Thanks for sharing the peppers, potatoes, and tomato dish. I’ve been cooking it non-stop since watching the episode......so delicious.
Thank you!
Ciao Eva. Auguri. I am born on March 9, Amerigo Vespucci. My sister is born on October 12, Cristoforo Colombo. This is very significant for our parents who are American born children of immigrants from Abruzzo. Today here in Abruzzo, I will make Bibi e Patate for my companion. His grand-parents are from Catanzaro.
Da piemontese devo dire che quella polenta e spezzatino ha una bellissima faccia! Anche se secondo me il top con la polenta è lo spezzatino di cinghiale o di cervo.
vero ...è che non ce la vedo Eva a caccia di cervi!
😂😂😂😂
Eva, la Nutella è una crema al gianduja (e decisamente non delle migliori) la storia del gianduja risale ai tempi di Napoleone, quando i pasticcieri di Torino non avevano abbastanza cacao per le loro cioccolate e decisero di mischiare cacao e nocciole piemontesi
English:
Eva, Nutella is a gianduja cream (and not one of the best), the history of gianduja dates back to the time on the Napoleonic wars when pastissiers from Tourin didn't have enough cocoa for their chocolate and decided to mix cocoa and piedmontese hazelnuts
iafozzac : Another good hazelnut cream from the north of Italy is 'Crema Novi.' Novi Ligure is in Piemonte (my grandson was born there!❤️)
@@robertolucarini7137 crema novi is really good. Probably the best factory made one
My husband’s family is quite Italian, and for Christmas we always have the beef pot roast with polenta and it’s sooooo good!
His grandma also gets the La Florentine Torrone candies for Christmas every year, too! 😋
(His dad’s side is Sicilian, and his mom’s side is northern Italian. Both of his maternal great grandparents were from Italy; his great grandma’s home town was Dalli Sotto. Both of us really hope to visit Italy one day!!!❤️🤍💚)
hahaha now we gotta know the secret nutella history!!!! love you both, and greetings from Brazil!
2:11 ah yes harper’s one of us
A lovable goofball when he giggles at Eva's impassioned proclamations.
Dish 1; potatoes, peppers, chilies and tomatoes.
They are all from the nightshade family.
So for dessert, a cup of black berries bathing in red wine? owO
My grandfather was Bresciano and during the war, when food was scarce and every morsel precious, his mother would scrape every last bit of polenta from the pot and also save any that was leftover from the evening meal and slice it as thin as possible then spread the pieces on a tray and leave it near the hearth. In the morning the polenta would be dry and crisp and my grandfather and his siblings would eat it soaked in milk: kind of like homemade cornflakes. I suppose you already know this, Eva, because you are an excellent cook but the bewildered look on Harper's face at all that leftover polenta leads me to mention that leftover polenta can be cut into slices (not too thick) then grilled and served with melted cheese, sauteed mushrooms or with any leftover stewed or roasted meats and their juices. Buon appetito!
She made a cake with it! 😉
@@PastaGrammar 👌🙂
Pipi e patati was a staple growing up, my Nonnas would make all the time. It was always one of my favourites.
