  • Italian Sunday gravy is the traditional, long-cooked pasta sauce from a small village in Campania. It has long braised meats galore like pork braciola, beef braciola, meatballs and sausage. It's a classic of the slow food movement since you really want to take your time making this one. But the good news is that while it's a lot of time, it's not a lot of work. You basically make the sauce, brown the meat and then let everything simmer together for several hours. It's the perfect dish to make on a lazy Sunday afternoon sipping wine with friends.
    You have to make this one next Sunday!

    I was born and raised in northern New Jersey and lived on the east coast until moving to North Beach over 20 years ago. I guess I've never lost my Jersey/Rhode Island accents.

    Dang, you are GOOD! Grew up in an Italian restaurant family with a father who cooked for the Rat Pack. You hit everything right on and your knowledge of the many regional Italian variations is more than impressive. And your sass tops it all off. So approachable. Intelligent. Fresh. Easy to understand. Perfecto.

    Please, please, grate your own parmigiano or pecorino. You'll really see the difference the real stuff makes in your dish.

    beautiful! that is a long lost art. even in italy, no one cooks like this anymore. this makes me remember my youth when all the italians in my city hung out together and did stuff like this. there was not much to like there was today , so my parents and their friends cooked and made meals like this. it was always festive and there was always food to eat. we seem to have lost so much so I try making nice sugos like this and give it friends and family and make them remember the good days that our parents taught us.

    Im Asian and have always loved the flavours and spices you get off from Italian cuisine, it's an overwhelming wholesome, home like feeling. I wish I knew more about Italian food so I can create authentic Italian flavours myself.

  • @Valimis
    @Valimis Před 11 lety +9

    Absolutely fantastic! You remind me of my father, God rest his soul. Cooking was his gift. Watching you in this video was like watching him, all those years ago in the kitchen. He learned all his recipes from his Grandmother, and I used to watch him cook. It was an art form you seldom see these days. Thank you!!! At last, I've found it again! Ciao!

    I live in Idaho and we don’t have anything like this. So grateful for CZcams...I’ve made homemade sauce with my own homegrown basil and Roma tomatoes, making delicious dishes like yours, I’ve made enchilada sauce, chile verde...seriously, the world is at my fingertips! These Italian dishes really make my family happy! I’ve subscribed and hit the 🔔 🥰🍝

    If you don't get heartburn after eating this dish there's something missing from the recipe. Simply Delicious boy do I miss the Italian restaurants in New Jersey the finest in the country.

    I'm originally not far from San Francisco and used to take the bus (too young to drive yet) and then walk to Fisherman's Wharf for sourdough bread, fight off the sea gulls and enjoy the view of the bridge. When I was old enough to drive, I had a job at a small restaurant on the Embarcadero called "The Captain's Table", later married and moved to TN. I was told to always keep my memories, because it has changed so much. I've looked at the pictures you've shown with your video several times and got a bit home sick. Thank you for your video.

    I've just found you !! So excited. My mom was born & raised in Chicago. Her best friend was & is Italian and they would come to visit us in Kentucky . They would bring Italian sausages in an ice chest bc it was 60 yrs ago. Kids galore so the gravy pot was huge !! So...mom is 91 now & I needed some more tips so I can make the gravy. I learned a lot today , so THANK YOU !!

    • @GianniNorthBeachTV

    Gianni thank you for sharing. You brought back memories of my ma. As I watched you work right away I realized Gianni can really cook. We are 5 brothers (just 4 of us left). We visit whenever we can between the bay area and Chicago. I'm the one who cooks. Ma used to say, one of you has to learn...
    So I was paying close attention and cheese'n it from ear to ear because of all the fond memories all the way through the recording and when you got emotional at the end... I may have started a half second before you...
    Again Thank You,
    Jesse

The memories, oh the memories carried by those aromas. Thanks for the memories paisano. Just don't watch this when you're on a diet like me. My doctor needs to see this.

    Gianni, Truly enjoyed watching you cook. I make mine the same as yourself. I chop all the veggies so that I don't remove except for the bay leaf. After 3 hrs of cooking you can't find anything but the bay leaf! I'm fond of garlic so I use a bit more than you do.Love seeing you cook. Both my parents were born in Italy and cooking was a very important part of daily life. Thanks and God Bless you.

    • @GianniNorthBeachTV
      @GianniNorthBeachTV  Před 10 lety +1

      Ciao Josie. Thanks for sharing your technique. Sometimes I chop vegetables or turn them into a paste in a food processor then saute them in olive oil before adding the tomatoes. Any of these methods impart the flavor of the vegetables into the sauce or even a soup base. Yes, remember to remove the bay leaf! Keep on cooking.
