FAQ:
Who is this lady?
Gina Petitti was born in 1935 in Faeto, Italy. It is in the province of Foggia in the Puglia region of southeast Italy. Her family ran a farm in Italy and she met her husband, Vito, in the same town. In 1970 Gina, Vito, and her 4 children immigrated to America. Gina’s husband passed away in 2012, but she is surrounded by a large family, which includes 9 grandchildren, and lives 5 minutes away from her eldest daughter in New Jersey. Gina enjoys making food for her family in the same old fashion ways as she was taught by her mother and grandmother in Italy, and also new things she has subsequently learned from family and friends in America. She also enjoys gardening, and being an active member of her local Church.
Where does Gina get her recipes?
Most of these recipes are from what she learned growing up in Italy, but some of them have evolved over time. She has also learned new recipes from friends and family in America. She is always eager to try new things.
Why is no one helping her in the video?
Grandma Gina doesn’t want help! Usually, it’s because we will slow her down or not do it “her way.” For the videos we only show her, but when the camera cuts we jump in and help form the cookies or prep for the next step.
Why don’t we buy her a new...?
Grandma Gina has a closet and garage full of new gadgets, spoons, forks, pots, etc… but she doesn’t like them because she is used to doing it with her old tools. She has fun getting her hands dirty!
Who is behind the camera and behind the scenes?
Grandma Gina’s retired son-in-law, Nick, does the filming, editing, production, and channel management. Her daughter, Maria, helps with food preparation, kitchen setup and fan support. Also, Grandma Gina usually has one or two grand-kids in the kitchen to help.
Does Gina read the comments?
We print out and show her how much love she gets from all her viewers, and she is very thankful and hopes you enjoy her cooking! Your comments bring her lots of joy, laughter, and inspiration to make more videos to share with you.
Thank you for watching, we hope you subscribe, and we will see you in our next video! - Jak na to + styl
Grandma Gina is such a gift! When I watch her I forget all my troubles. I love you Grandma Gina!❤
Does she know what a treasure she is?
She is a priceless treasure,I wish she was my neighbor or relative.
Me too!!!♥️ I truly adore her!!☺️
Me too 😊
I agree! She is such a darling woman and makes me smile with every video. "Hallo, I'm a-Gina". ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I couldn't agree more. She seems like a sweetheart
Me too ! Just love her so!! I have to get my Italian Grandma Fix sometimes everyday
I’m just here smiling!
Grandma make a cook book and make a lot of money, and reach more people than you can on u-tube. I love watching you cook it reminds of when I was a little kid watching my grandma cook. Share you knowledge with the world. I hate watching these professional chefs telling this or that is the original way of doing things, considering they are not Italian. But most of all you do not waste a thing.
Nona Gina my parents came to UK over 60years ago from Italy. My mum only had time to show us the basic when it came to cooking as she was always out at work. Sadly she has passed away, but when she had time she also loved to cook the ‘old way’. Since I discovered you I have learned to make so many dishes I remember my mum made. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
PS I love your singing, good health to you and your family and keeping cooking xxxx
You live in the UK? How many yrs? William & Harry are my 1st Great Grandmothers 7th Cousins & my Grandmothers 10th Cousins Mums 13th Cousin & my 19th Cousins.
I wish there was a home I could find to buy in the Uk I could buy owner finance, I dont want to be here anymore, I hate the USA. Too many sad things have happened to me over here, I lost both my kids. I lost my daughter in 1999 in Nov, & I lost my Son in 2008 in August😢. And the UK is so beautiful. 💗🙏🌻🌺🦋
@@susanspencer9538 am so sorry for your losses..no parent should lose a child.. much less two. God must think you are really strong to do you like that. He won't put more on you than you can handle. I pray that God gives you the strength to deal with it and the fulfilment that only He can give to help your heart every day 🙏
Believe me, I am a cook myself. You are so authentic. I am glad you are living in an era when they can video you, so your cooking and your beautiful English and singing will pass to generations and generations to learn and enjoy. God bless you. 🌹😍
I love way she teaches her recipes.
Same
@Soilent Green why?! She's delightful to listen to
That's an idiotic statement. I have no problem with her English. Do you have problem understanding her? When someone learns a language after they are adults, their native accents remain. I think it's wonderful
@Soilent Green Why???
I do too!🥰
You have inspired me to try new things, I am 80 and love to cook for my husband and myself, Going to make stuffed peppers with your recipe, I love your accent and your happy spirit, Keep singing !!!! God Bless you !!!
I love grandma Gina! Me and my boyfriend watch EVERY video. Y’all have taught us so much, and the proof is in the puddin! Much love from mine to yours, Gina!!
Nonna Gina, God Bless You and thank you so much for all your videos! My family is Italian, my father is from Sassinoro, Benevento and my mother from Avellino, Italy. I am 47 years old and have never been on social media or commented on anything online, but your videos bring joy to me and to my family, especially my 81 year old father, Biagio. You remind us of some many woman in our family (many of whom are now gone) and your beautiful personality always makes us smile. Whenever I need inspiration or a break, I watch your videos. I have written down many of your recipes and am saving them to pass on to my children. Everything has been delicious and my father says your recipes are authentic and taste the way he remembers. I always have your Taralli and "S" Cookies available for my family and try to make one of your meal recipes once a week. Thank you again and God Bless you! Know that you bring joy and fond memories to many people.
I know Benevento and Avellino well. My town of Faeto is in the same area. I came to the US at the age of 35. I try to cook as much as possible in the manner that I learned from my mother and grandmother. Thank you for watching my channel. God Bless you and your family. A big hello to your father Biagio.
I watch. Italian grandma. Every day. Im 4th generation. From Sicily. My grandmother sounded. Just like. Grandma Gina. I get many great recipes. From grandma. Gina. Thank you. Your cooking is great. I love your accent. Love. Sandy. Petillo
I can't believe how young this woman is ! Such energy! She's a pleasure.
Gina, even though we never met I love you so much! Spending time with you in the kitchen is like spending time with my mother. Some of my happiest memories of my mother is cooking with her - especially on the holidays. Christmas Eve!!! Thank you for teaching us your beautiful recipes. I cannot wait to try this. Sending love and prayers from Rhode Island. Stay safe!
You melt my heart Everytime Nonna Gina.💗
I am 66 yrs. Young, all of my Appalachian grandparents died early before I was born, not having even 1 grandparent to pass down family recipes, tradition and stories “done their way” has always left a little empty place in my heart, thank you for sharing your recipes and stories for all to enjoy, God Bless You , Ron in WA.
I watch your videos with a smile on my face and tears in my eyes. I love your sweet spirit and love for cooking. I feel like I’m sitting near by, sipping on my coffee and watching you cook and talk and sing. You calm me. I just adore you! Much love and respect! Thank you for sharing your kitchen with us all!
It’s always a happy day when Gina sends us a new recipe ! ☀️

That’s so awesome. More neighbors should be that way . Bless you !
"You gotta smash-a da eggs." God I love this woman. :)

During making the zucchini bake, I thought I had paused the video to grab the eggs, then realised it was still playing, I yelled out hang on Gina! At that precise second @4:27 you said Okay 😁🤣😂 We laughed!
This recipe, followed to the letter in this English kitchen, has become a regular and firm favourite. Cooking it again tomorrow and can’t wait. Thank you, Gina. You’re a true star. Long May you continue to inspire.
