My Italian wife, Eva, never eats breakfast. Why? Because in Italy, breakfast is hardly a "thing" and, at most, consists of a sweet pastry. Which is why I thought it might be time to introduce her to America's favorite sweet breakfast: a donut (or twelve).

Lets all be honest here. Harper just wanted Eva to start making donuts for him.
So funny!
And they look heavenly!!!
I mean yeah
I was getting ready to write a donut to try before watching the whole video.I saw your comment and thought of course this is the point lol and yeah hers looks great lol
I WAS WONDERING WHERE HE WAS GOING WITH THE SUGAR IN THE DONUT BRANDS HE CHOSE LOL
No honey dip?! Boston creme ❤️
"Change the oil!" -- I teach classes on foods, and one time I researched donuts. I called a local shop and asked how often they changed the [partially-hydrogenated, refined] oil. "About every two weeks." Yikes. No wonder Ava balked. Her "taster" has not been corrupted from a lifetime of food fried in old, rancid oil.
In Italy they would actually be in jail now o___o
That's disgusting!
2 weeks-old exhausted oil??? People must be insane if they eat something fried in that mess!
holy smokes.... and the fact that I'd still have them after knowing.... I'm dead definitely hahaha
You've said it all. Most of the fried junk food's made like that. Same thing occurs with asian famous "nems", here in France, made from frozen industrially processed stuff... and it stinks, of course. Just try fresh one home made to get what's the difference...
12:46 Italians don’t Google, they call their parents for instructions
My partner is Italian and she does both. Epic win!
This is so true
And they have the best answers, period.
Eva knows what she's doing. And when she doesn't, she asks.
But she'll still do an excellent job, so long as it's not one of Harper's experiments where you cool down pasta once, microwave it, cool it down a second time, and then microwave once more.
I don't know where I'm going with this. Anyways, kudos to Eva.
Yes I do!
Pasta grammar: a you tube series about an American guy torturing an Italian woman with American food ,whilst an Italian woman in return gives an American guy a glimps of Italian culinary heaven.... 😂🤣
😂😂😂😂
@@PastaGrammar Shocket to see a (pretty) dark hair Italion that is so pale..arent they all dark like mexicans? NEVER seen a pale one
Everyone is pale during a Maine winter 😂
@@PastaGrammarHeh
@@BOOSTEDLASER " arent they all dark like mexicans? never seen a pale one" lol... No we're not, we are indeed mostly "pale". Some italian people has a more "dark" skin tone, some are even paler than Eva, some are blonde with bright eyes, some have dark hair and brown eyes, and all the different combinations in between.
I love Eva calling her parents cuz she’s stuck on part of a recipe. I would call my mom when I forgot an ingredient too
I'm glad Eva can still ask her mom about stuff. Wish mine was s till around.
I would look on CZcams and find Akis.
As an italian I can understand only a little of Eva's phone call!
@@maurofiorini9841 è un dialetto calabrese
When My Mom Answers the Phone and I Say " Hello, Dial-a-Chef" She Responds with "How Can I Help You Today" 😆💞😆
Glad I'm Not Alone 💓
Driving two hours to test a donuts is the most american thing I saw on your channel, if I drive 2 hours, I'm outside of my country (Belgium) :D
Before covid, I used to drive into Los Angeles from my city right outside L.A. which can take anywhere from 45 minutes to 4 hours to get something decent or interesting. It can either be a lot of fun or a complete nightmare depending on if the food is worth it or if there’s a crazy accident on the freeway or if half the state catches on fire while I am down there.
😂😂 2 hours for donuts 🍩 is just insane!!
100 miles or kms is a lot to Europeans but 100 years is a lot to Americans/Canadians.
ahahahahah!
Hi neighbour! You drove for 2 hours, welcome to the Netherlands! :D
I’m always so impressed how Eva knows how to make everything. If someone in Italy asked me about American food I wouldn’t know how to make every recipe like she does. I just love this couple.
as an italian who tried donuts, i can say i would eat them as breakfast but not every day, i want my liver to work well till i die
Not exactly italian but linked though , you have frappes in Corsica , also chestnut flat donuts .
In " candies ' with only natural stuff .
In mediterranean you have several salt donuts also .
@@Nissardpertugiu The "donuts" Eva coocked here can be easilly sliced in two and filled with prosciutto e ricotta. Or spek e brie...
Well good, no one eats donuts every day
Being a father who raised a daughter who learned how to cook from me, I love that you called you father for advice. 💕
Harper’s life in a sentence: “i see what you mean”
Such a tasty way to be wrong!
Happy wife happy life
I'm from Rome and i'm really glad you put those english subtitles, couldn't really understand that calabrian dialect lol
An italian tries donuts for the first time, also known as: Harper enjoys dozens of donuts for 15 min straight.
I agree 100% with Eva about the nasty fry oil flavor of chain donut shop donuts!
its terrible
Harper: I was scared of eating a savory donut.
Also Harper: Let's eat a bacon donut.
Eva, you're an amazing cook!
I continue to love the look on Eva's face whenever she made something good and tastes it.
She's so honest I love her! It's so cute how she exhales every time before she says "buon appetito" (*edit* when she's uncertain about the food!) and dives in. 💟
It’s a wish for a miracle 😂
I'm totally with Eva : I love strawberries but I hate everything with strawberry flavour
I join the club ...
Simple answer: everything with strawberry flavour has most probably never seen a strawberry and it's instead flavoured with some chemical made food flavoring and for certain things they work really well but it's really hard to replicate fresh strawberrys
I feel the same way about peaches
because i don't know in the US but in Italy it doesn't taste like strawberry at all it tastes like some sort of caramel strawberry filled with more sugar ugh
I'm similar but with banana flavour.
"We have bombolone". Apposto così.
Il momento della verità! :-D
*a posto
@@FuckingIDuser Quella del "Apposto" è una maledizione peggiore dei cibi americani.
Evaaaaa faglielo assaggia il KRAPFEN BOMBOLONE
@@AndreaLavino intendeva dire che si apposta dietro le pasticcerie ed aspetta che sfornino i bomboloni!🤣🤣
Eva is a riot. Love her accent and hand gestures. Mama mia!
My German Irish grandmother always made dinner rolls with a very similar recipe. Didn't even cross my mind to try to fry it up! Love watching you 2. Thanks for sharing your delicious recipes with us!
The way Eva looks at harper when she knows she's breaking his heart
I love how Harper feeds Eva all these American foods and at the end Eva always beats him with the Italian version hehe! Vi voglio bene ragazzi!!!!
Anche noi!!! ❤️
I'm so glad you included the clip of her asking her parents for clarification about the donuts xD. Makes me feel better about asking my mom for clarification on recipes
I am a fan. Omg I love the two of you!
In Italy we have Ciambelle, fried donuts covered in sugar (not glazed). It's a perfect midnight snack here in Rome alongside with Bombe alla crema 👌🏻
preferisco cornetti caldi
I like it better, it's lighter than doughnuts
Not as good as a donut tho
Long live BOMBE alla crema!
@@user-hm4ku6yw4x you’re right, far better than donuts
She's got such beautiful hair! God bless her!
Thank you!
Seems she's more of a yeast doughnut person than a cake doughnut person. Also you want a fresh doughnut you have to go really early in the morning.
Dunkin used to have good doughnuts when they made them fresh in house. I recommend finding a shop that makes them homemade.
Cake donuts also are way better dunked in coffee. Kinda getting only half the experience without the coffee.
I'm from Croatia and we mostly fry yeast doughnuts called krafne (German:krapfen). I think in Italy they also call them krapfen (I use the recipe from GialloZafferano)
@@mbagi krofne*
@@TheKoog97 krafna je pravilan hrvatski izraz. a opet svaka regija ima svoj neki naziv
I love all your videos. I'm learning so much about real, authentic Italian cooking. Thank you both!!
Whenever there's a new video from Pasta Grammar, I don't even read the title. I just click and start watching! Love you guys!!!
Grazie!
I agree. It gould be Eva just reading the back of a Bisquik Box and I'd be thrilled.
Dunkin Donuts vs Krispy Kreme?
Bro give me the neighborhood small business donut shop. Less variety but much better quality.
True I do not like Dunkin have not tried Krispy.
@@sababaratashvili8629 Krispy Creme is basically the same but with a bit more variety. The donuts are also a little bit lighter. Don't get me wrong I still think both of them taste good but I prefer the mom and pop places.
@@paradygmshift7826 Agreed
Krispy Kreme is much more light & melts in your mouth.
since you are in Maine, take Eva to "Holy Donuts" in Portland: as an Italian, I extended my journey in New England just to taste them, no regret
I knew she'd like that Boston Cream. It's really the only donut I like and it reminds me of some of the custard desserts my southern Italian family made.
Boston cream is great from a really good donut shop.
I’m married to an Italian also, he enjoys trying American foods. 🤷🏽♀️ His relatives that visit love donuts 🍩!!! We like eating Italian food in Italy. 🤷🏽♀️
As a matter of fact, not all Italians always say "no" to US or foreign tastes. I like Eva, but sometimes she is a bit too much on the "no" side.
@@lorenzoamato953 she's definitely on the no side almost all the time. She acted as if she didn't know anything about donuts, while in Italy everyone knows what a damn ciambella is...
@@YouDeserveToDie666 Agree. I mean, she has a point that the oil in those fast food places is always bad, and the donuts sold there are too sugary. But still, it sounds strange she would not know about their existence. In Florence every pasticceria has variants of ciambelle and bomboloni that at least look like donuts. Well, admittingly though, she does not come from a big city...
"eva have I ever lead you wrong??"
Evas face 🤨
She was such a good sport about it, though.
In her defense I’m not really a fan of Dunkin either lol. Their donuts are kind of dense, not fluffy enough.
Agreed,Krispy kreme is definitely better.
Best doughnuts in the world Krispy Kreme
If the donuts are fresh they are better than krispy kreme, that place was a complete let down.
Also, Donuts were created by dutch which introduced them to America.🤙
Dunkin Donuts is awful. Go some place else.
Not a Dunkin fan here either.
As an Italian I actually like donuts. We have a sort of things like that but made with potatoes and sprinkled with sugar on top. But to me nothing beats a fresh cornetto/croissant filled with Nutella.
Dude, that's absolutely insane that the best donut ever ended up being made in the Italian way. LMAO. Now I'm definitely trying some potato donuts!
do it!!!!!
Should have stayed with basic raised glazed yeast doughnut, a classic well before Crispy Creme.
I was thinking the same thing, the classic donut.
I need a long walk. I feel like I gained weight by just watching this.
We had a very long walk after that! 😂
😂😂😂 Enjoy your walk! Lots'a love, cheers, & Mabuhay, from tropical Philippines!
Long walks also help invigoratr you and fill you with energy. Energy you need to eat more donuts!
I love how he always gets shocked and disappointed when the recipe Eva makes is always soo tasty as compare to what he likes lol
Love the content! Can't wait for more. Thank you so much.
I’m SO with Eva - strawberries, yes; fake strawberry flavor, no!
Same!!
Eva looks absolutely HEARTBROKEN to tell you that your local DD fried their batch of donuts in old, used,frying oil which imparted a bad taste.
She shouldn’t apologize because Dunkin is terrible
Lmao
@@cecilyerker so is KK
i am so stoked on your simple videos
Eva talking to her mom in Calabrese dialect. I love it. ❤
Her dad, technically, is the expert on cururicci, or so it seems.
Eva asking her Dad for the recipe reminded me so much of when my mother would call my Nono for recipes!

Omg. These were fantastic!!!Spent the afternoon making these with the whole family. Thank you! Gracie !!
Glad to hear that!!! ❤️
“It doesn’t taste like chocolate...” I love her 👍🏼❤️
It's true tho… I've tried them. They just taste like sugar 😒
Sta arrivando il carnevale, Eva fai vedere a tutti chi comanda 💪🏻
Ci proverò!!!
@@PastaGrammar Oh si, Harper sarà particolarmente contento se farai qualche dolce carnevalesco
Uh le frappè o crostoli, ma anche le frittelle con la crema dentro (in Friuli le chiamiamo così)

Frittelle con zabaione!! 😋
Her expressions. Priceless! ❤️
You two are without a doubt the most delightful couple I've ever known! Thanks for sharing your experiences with all of us. Cannot wait to make some of your dishes.
I'm from Texas and I am not a big fan of Dunkin Donuts. Krispy Kreme is ok, but I prefer our local donut makers. Always so much better. I'm with Eva about the bacon on the donut. ugh.
I have a few friends from TX who say you can't beat the local places. If I make it that way I am trying the donuts.
I don't live in Texas anymore but I never really ate donuts when I did because I always got the kolaches at the donut shops. By the way, you can't find those outside of Texas. No one you talk to outside of Texas will have a clue what you are talking about.
Local is better than these disgusting chain shops no matter where you go, to be honest. Heck, home-made is far better too.
Same. There is a donut shop near my house called Q Donuts, and they have the best donuts and sausage rolls I've ever had since Krispy Kreme.
Round Rock Doughnuts is the GOAT, but Shipley's is great from when you're not in Round Rock
hahahahahaha, her face when she realized that the "best donuts ever" were made of potatoes...
your channel brings me so much joy, thank you you guys are fabulous! EVA SEI FANTASTICA
This is such a creative way of creating a cooking show! Entertaining, funny and informative. You are both great story tellers 💫💚
She nailed it "it taste like old fried food with lots of sugar". American's have had their taste buds destroyed by all of the chemicals in our foods. LOL!
What a mistake. He should have just ordered a dozen mixed at a local place instead of going through the DD drive thru.
Eva has a very high culinary standard, unrealistic for being a resident of US of A. Harp&Eve should've headed straight to that Portland boutique donut shop from the get go.
@@ricodelavega4511 it's a palette difference. I remember when I first moved to the us it took a while to get use to staples and what people are used to here. It's not that she has way too high standards it's that the standards aren't even on the same playing field 😅 it takes a while to get used to for sure.
We do have donuts in Italy! Weird that Eva never tried one before 😅 they may not be the traditional ones but you can definitely find them..
I love your videos,so professional, entertaining,, and its not real long for the making of the recipe,, I never get bored or fall asleep 😄 ....Eva is the best!
La telefonata in Calabrese e' solo per finissimi intenditori! 😂😂😂 Che spasso. Harper: bombe, ciambelle,frappe, gnocco fritto, cornetti, girelle e quant'altro: i donuts li diamo alle galline! Lol Cheers guys👍
😉😂
Alex,hai ragione.da noi krapfen alias bombe sono tutta un'altra cosa.
Io i donut li ho provati in Giappone da Mister Donuts e francamente li trovo troppo compatti e asciutti. Mancano di aria nell'impasto.
@@1963manuela ma sì ragazzi ovvio. A parte asciutti e spugnosi zeppo d'olio. Ma poi non per fare sempre il nazionalista ma la pasticceria nostra e' a un altro livello per qualità, varietà, professionalità, tradizione.👍
😂😂
We have something called "Frittelle" in Italy that sort of resemble donuts. It's fluffier, wider and more flat with more air inside, and dunked in regular granulated sugar
C'è anche il vecchio adagio: Non tutte le ciambelle riescono col buco: meaning not always things go your way..........
There are many different varieties in Europe :-) here in the Netherlands we have ‘oliebollen’ they are a ball shaped, fluffy, crispy on the outside and we also dunk it with powdered sugar.
@@TheAdelaide9 yeah, we do too, here in Norway. Sometimes filled with egg cream or raspberry jam ☺️ delicious!
@@TheAdelaide9 Olliebollen are similar to zeppoli, with raisins inside, as far as I can tell.
@@RocRizzo oliebollen don't HAVE to have raisins inside. It's actually perhaps the precursor of the American doughnut.
Hearing Eva speak to her parents is so wonderful... reminds me of my dad talking to my uncles in dialect!!!
It's OK Eva most Americans don't like Dunkin Donuts either 😂
Dunkin Donuts is like a Michael Bay movie, you just go to it because it's there.
HOW DARE YOU
@@Darklighter75 Is true. Give in. Smaller bakeries make best pastry.
That’s true for me at least. I hate cake donuts which means I hate DD Donuts. They only donuts I like are Krispy Cream, public’s the grocery store and local donuts shops.
It's actually hard to find good donuts and bad donuts is just disgusting. There is a very fine line.
I think what Harper doesn't realize is that most italian women are fixated about staying in shape so there is always the good excuse to not liking sweets and finding all kind of flaws to not eat extra calories....you'll learn as time goes on!!!
Italian women have good taste, and that’s it.
@@MrGilRoland for sure!
French women too
Also it’s just healthier not to eat refined sugar, it causes inflammation and makes you fat
What most Americans don’t understand is we are almost one of the only countries that uses refined ingredients and processed food to make our food more appealing and people that aren’t used to those tastes, can literally taste the chemicals, grease, sugar etc.
I’ll agree with you Eva Dunkin Donuts DONUTS have gone down hill since they don’t make them in house anymore they’re terrible now
LOLOLOLOL... loved this video! Eva's honesty, priceless. The reveal and Harpers realization, priceless. Gotta love this channel.
Looks so amazing!
Eva: bomboloni alla crema, castagnole e struffoli! Vendetta per il dolce fritto!
"Circancillu a papà" ahaha la telefonata in Calabrese mi ha steso!
😂😂😂
Always thumbs up to both of you lovely couple!
Your a lucky man to have such a great person to share your life with!!!
Choosing a doughnut should have been a glazed doughnut. The simple standard doughnut. :)
Leaving it up to Dunkin Donuts was a cop-out, but I understand wanting let someone else take the blame.
Lol!!! Potato donuts!!! Krispie Kremes original glazed might have been better... except that she has potato donut experience. :)
Warm Krispy Kreme Glazed is way better than anything Dunkin' makes 💯.
Krispy Kreme is gross. They're as bad as a Dunkin Donuts just in a different way. There's no fluff in Krispy Kreme they're skinny and flat. It's no wonder they didn't last very long in my area. I'm a donut freak. I make them all the time. Store-bought ones or donut shop ... yuck!
@@skyandropoulos2305 Krispy Kreme is vile. I'd rather eat prepackaged boxed donuts than donuts that taste like nothing but sugar.
First donut ever and it’s DUNKIN!?!!! 🤮
Surely you have a real donut shop somewhere in maine?
Haha seriously!
I know right!
I bet you're a starbucks simp who would spend that kind of money on coffee,just stop 😂
Fist doughnuts I had was a lil local place that sold out the best stuff before 8am and the old men of town hung out there. Those are always the best spots😊
And a CAKE donut at that
The look on your faces when Eva said 'Potato Doughnut'. I burst out laughing. Priceless!
I love that the ones she lliked are made from potatoes. She knows her food!
Thst "bad fried" flavor is from modefied shortening that they use for frying. Reason why it's bad for you is because the shortening stays solid at room temperature (it clogs the artery if you eat too much of it), and they use this shortening because the donuts will not taste greasy. If you make your own at home using regular cooking oil, it always taste different.
Hardly anyone uses shortening anymore. I'm sure Dunkin Donuts doesn't.
@@tony_25or6to4 actually, they banned use of modified vegetable shortening in California for chain restaurants 10 years ago, but I don't know if they have such laws in the east coast. I mean mcdonalds was using beef fat in their fryer oils until the Muslim community sued them.
@@jaeyocho I managed a McDonald's in the 80s. The beef tallow made the best fries. McDonald's, and almost all other restaurants, changed to vegetable oil for health reasons. Muslims don't have a problem with beef. There was a lawsuit in the 90s from Hindus and vegetarians because McDonald's was using beef juice to flavor the fries to make up for the missing taste from the tallow.
@@tony_25or6to4 oops, I knew it was one of those group of people. But yeah even mcdonalds didn't change to vegetable oil until there was a law suit. As a vegan I wouldn't expect a major chain to fry their potatoes in beef fat.
@@tony_25or6to4this is one of the reasons why I don't do fast foods anymore, the only time I do fast food is at subways going on long road trips. www.vice.com/en/article/pgxn57/we-talked-to-dunkin-donuts-about-palm-oil-on-national-doughnut-day
Butternut donut. The topping is actually a mixture of coconut,
corn flour, and sugar, but it tastes much different than the Coconut .
It's not terribly crunchy, it tastes like an Almond Joy, and provides a
different kind of texture that will surely yield crumbs.
Interesting! I never would have thought there was coconut in it
Mi piace questo canale perchè ad ogni video imparo cose nuove anche sulla cucina calabrese...non le avevo mai sentite le curijicchie, dalle mie parti con lo stesso impasto, ma salato, facciamo le zeppole con le alici o con la nduja.
Continuate così, siete il mio canale culinario preferito!
Ps: la chiamata ai genitori sul finale è il top!
You guys are so lucky to have each other. Bless!
"This is not bad-bad-bad, but... " the kindest words she's spent for the donuts in the video.
She’s 💯 correct. Tastes like bad fried oil
I'm still catching up with all of the vids since finding your channel. I really enjoyed this one. The little story-line leading up to, of course, Eva making a mouth-watering treat. You two are really developing a great video rhythm together.
11:52 checkmate...HAHAHA. Such great videos. Just subscribed to you two...so good!
Dunkin Donuts is different from 35 years ago. Production used to occur in each store. The donuts today are mass produced with a lot of artificial ingredients.
Yeah they’re pretty bad
You mean at one point dunkin WASNT god awful?!!
I received a $15 gift card at Christmas so last saturdy I went to our local Dunkin donuts at a little after 9 and I was told because it was so early they only had 4 flavours available and all I could think about was the commercial that was on when I was a kid of the guy getting to the donut shop at 4:00 in the morning to make a fresh doughnuts and here it was after 9 o'clock and they were just starting.
@@numsixber you're right.
@@exnoctem yes.
For information: basically all countries in Europe, "from Sweden to Spain" have a local version of the donut. The best one I ever had was in USA, in a donut bakery outside of Pittsburgh!
Oliebollen in the Netherlands!
Was it Oram's?
Yes. We have gogoși in Romania, they can be simple or filled with jam or cream.
Love you both!
I am Canadian and my parents were Italian (regions - Abbruzzo-Molise and Veneto) and only had strong coffee in the morning - breakfast is not a big deal - a pastry or cookie to dunk at most. Our family makes a similar donut called crespelle (some versions have potatoes), and we put raisins in them, but usually make them for Christmas. I still like Tim Horton's as much as you like Dunkin (I loved those when I visited friends in Massachusetts), but I grew up with donuts.It would definitely be culture shock to someone from Italy. She probably liked Boston cream (like my mom did - and mom made faces like Eva when she didn't like something Lol!) because the filling resembles pastry cream which is a staple in many Italian desserts.That was hilarious!
1:28 I got you a little treat.
Eva's reaction... priceless! 😂
Harper kinda Sus
I feel like he wanted to have donuts and just put getting Eva to taste donuts as an excuse to get boxes and boxes of donuts for himself 😋
I love you guys!!!
Not sure if this has been asked before. But who taught Eva to cook so well? Did she go to cooking school? She is wonderful!
She just learned from her family, most notably her aunt!
Next video, "Feeding my Italian Wife Strawberry flavored things."
Häagen-Dazs, Helados Mexico popsicle, etc...
When I saw the title of the video, my first thought was, "Don't take her to Dunkin'." I cringed when it was DD. I have one down the street from me and I do go there every now and then for a coffee. The donuts? No. Their donuts used to be much better years ago when they were still made in the stores. Now most of them are made elsewhere and the stores get them delivered. I've heard that some stores still make them but I think that most do not. This cut back on the quality a lot and I think they are also using cheaper ingredients. Add old oil to the mix and you have an end product that is not worth the money or the calories. I can't give an honest opinion on KK because we don't have them near me so the only ones I have ever tried are the ones sold in boxes in the grocery store but they were still better that what Dunkin sells these days and that's sad. Especially since I grew up on Dunkin'. Great video as always.
In fact, even in Italy we have Donuts, or at least very similar in shape. I happened to taste one in America and I also felt the dough was different from the one we use in Italy, obviously the quality of the oil and how often it is replaced is another important element to determine the quality. However in Italy they are called "ciambelle fritte" or "bomboloni", the aesthetic characteristic that differentiates them from the American ones is that in Italy we are used to putting simple granulated sugar in them, we do not use the icing as I see in the American ones. But one thing I can say, for both Italians and Americans, it is the quality of the ingredients and the oil on which they fry that make the difference.
Hi the Italian donut sounds really delicious. Do you have some trusted recipe that I can probably try? Thanks.
@@architaanand3136 try recipes from GialloZafferano I think they have them in English also but not all of them. And also the youtube channel and website: "Fatto in casa da Benedetta". I use this recipe for yeast doughnuts:czcams.com/video/JnTS67ovtpU/video.html. It's in Croatian but you have ingredients in English under the video. It's important to place each dougnut on a separate piece of paper and put them in the oil upside down when they have doubled in size. The oil temperature is important
@@mbagi thank you so much for the links, details and vital tips.
After watching a few videos of Eva’s authentic cooking and reasonable comments, the lady just convinced me to try Italian dishes now. They are healthy. 👌👍
I'm Italian, and I love all donuts, of any possible kind. I go crazy for them!! Too bad I have a bad stomach and therefore I avoid them, otherwise I would have one every day, if I could!!
I love donuts too!
We make "Turdilli" not sure how it is spelled. But with sugar on top on anchovies inside for savoury!
I have had what you described. I know them as scrippelle. I prefer without anchovies 😊
Highly entertaining!!
I'm trying this definitely trying this
