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

Such a blessing to have a healthy Grandmother who is still around to teach and pass down her knowledge…. So many of us would love to still have our Grandmothers to enjoy in our lives and would for sure appreciate more in our older ages.
Me too!!! Looks like she got her kitchen remodeled! 🥰🥰🥰
Nona Gina, I'm so happy to see you! ❤️
Me too. I was thinking about her this morning. Just love her. She reminds me of an aunt of mine.
“Oh My God, it’s so delicious!” Best part of the video is her tasting her own cooking. Who doesn’t Love an Italian Grandmother?
Grazie Nona Gina Grazie 🙏😘🙏💐you are our biggest sweetest ❤all around the world
Love all things mushroom.
Have a Wonderful Mother's Day sweet lady. 💐
Such a sweet lady she is. Love watching her.
Thankyou sweet grandmother for teaching us♥️
And you sing beautifully and with such compassion like your cooking.
Blessings from the Oregon coast 😊
How wonderful when Nona Gina feels the muse she bursts out in song!!! ❤
I love your philosophy of life …and seeing you put it into action
This lovely lady reminds me so much of my Noni. The accent,the jesters…and my Noni was a fabulous cook. She passed at 93 from a broken hip, otherwise super healthy woman. That was 30 years ago. I still miss her and remember her always lovingly scolding me for letting my dog on the beds! 🥰
Hello Gina. I love you so much. Everytime I hear you start singing. I cry. My grandmother. Always sang so beautiful. Whenever she cooked. She would get up Sunday morning at 4:30. To make the pasta and she would be singing when she rolled the cavetelli Then she would make chicken and roast potatos. Italian bread and a big salad. Oh how I wish I had my grandmother with me today. I would cook with her all the time. She was very strict and she taught me how to make her stuffed artichokes and to do her eggplant Parmigiano When I was young And her pasta fajoli. I miss her. You bring me good memories Gina. God bless you sweetheart. Linda from Rhode Island
That’s a sweet tribute to your Grandma, I have similar memories of my Noni and I miss her. I used to love making homemade raviolis with her. When I became a young adult I tried to write down her recipes but she never measured anything. I would ask ‘how much?’ and she would say ‘oh about this much’ and show with her hand! ☺️
Yes! My Grandma, so many years ago lived in Rhode Island (her parents were but young kids from Italy in those early years) and they eventually moved to NH (Nashua) where many happy times unfolded over the years. I remember her children (my mother and sibs) reflecting on their youth, when my grandmother was always singing at the top of her lungs while cooking, mortifying them at the time!. I’d so love to hear that again today!
What a beautiful story Linda; I got a very good visual. Thanks. And, whoa, that's a lot of food on Sunday.
Blessed Mother, we pray to you to keep our Momma Gina safe and healthy that she may continue to bring us joy. 💙🤍
This woman just makes me smile. I love when she sings. I love when she says OK? I only knew one grandmother; she never ever, ever, ever cooked for anyone. Like my father, she too didn't like children and there were five of us.
You can't imagine how much we love you Nonna Gina,. You make our life a whole brighter place. Thank you for always being there for us and having a caring heart. Ti amiamo piu. di quanto pensi.🇮🇹 💚🤍❤🇮🇹
Love Grandma Gina, Bless your heart , You're a Wonderful. ❤
When I watch you cook, Gina, what I feel is hundreds of years of cooking history shared mother to daughter, mother-in-law to daughter-in-law, generation to generation, over and over. It's a beautiful thing! 💞
I return to my youth watching Gina. Such a peaceful reprieve in this busy, chaotic world.
Hey Gina! So great to see you! Thank you for this excellent recipe! God bless you and your beautiful family!
It is always such a pleasure watching and learning from you! You are so special! Thank you, Gina❤
My dear sweet lady!! I’ve missed you. I haven’t watched you in quite a while and I see you’re still doing well & cooking up a storm! One of my favorites….risotto with mushrooms & sometimes I add asparagus… I’m going to definitely try your recipe.
Love love love you lady!!!❤❤❤
Where I live May is asparagus risotto month.
Grazie Nonna Gina! Watching you is like watching my own Nonna cooking for her family. Love and Happy Mother's Day!!🥰
Mushroom risotto and a song from Nonna Gina. ❤
I can’t tell you how glad I am every time I see that you have a video for me to watch!!!!! God bless you and thank you for making my heart so happy🥰😍
I love to watch you cook and you’ve never looked more beautiful🇮🇹❤️
❤❤❤ Agreed 👍
Much love from Toronto 🇨🇦💜. God bless you
It's always a special day when I see Grandma Gina cooking a new dish for us♥ Thank you! You remind me soo much of my own grandma, who passed at 98, still cooking like this until the end!
She reminds me of my great Aunt as well same accent and speech and so many others likenesses. Brings back wonderful memories of my Italian Immigrant Non and Nonny. Sadly they are all gourmet and customs have been lost over the years but still have recipes in my head. I love it when she says " you no like, you no put, you like you put. "
Grazie Nonna Gina! We missed you!❤
Welcome back Bella Gina
OMG she is absolutely fabulous! I adore her! Thank you for the cooking lesson. And I’m sure singing to it in Italian made it 100% better ! I bet Gordon Ramsay would be put to shame with your risotto.
What a nourishing, creamy, comfort meal 😊. Thankyou Nona Gina,and God bless you always.l am a Greek Nona ,79 years old and lam passionate cook too and l love the way you adore your grand children, and provide for them!!!❤ Also l love gardening too just like you !!Take care and keep singing your heart felt somgs😅🙏🌹🇬🇷🇦🇺🦘
Here's a thought: you could collect, publish and sell a songbook of all of Gina's favorite songs. Italian songbooks are actually hard to find in the USA. They're usually all Neapolitan songs.
"all the time you gotta move".......I could watch this beautiful lady all day........
Such a blessing she is..
I miss you so much nona Gina. Keep those videos coming 💋💋💋❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻From Toronto

Gina, born to be in front of the camera … natural to the core.
Nona Gina you are a treasure. I have tried many of your recipes & we have loved every one of them. My husband asked if I could make one of your recipes once a week until we have tried them all.

Hi Gina! You are sooooo special to all your viewers and I hope you feel our love for you as we feel your love for us. I have learned so very much from watching you cook! When I see a new video of yourd on CZcams, it's like Christmas for me. Thanks for teaching us to love and respect good food. Nothing better than a home cooked Italian meal!
The little flowers went for a trip around the world!
I love these videos with Gina. It grounds me to a happier world. 🙏❤
Gina, I learned to cook from a friend/co worker with Italian New Jersey roots back in in the late 1970’s .. Before that
I grew up very far from your food culture- mine was one of east coast Canadian post-war frugality and local root vegetables and fish! Sounds boring, but all good with no complaints..
I credit my Italian- Canadian friend for opening my eyes and appetite and devotion to the art and love of cooking.
I thank her and YOU for that as you continue to inspire so many more here on utube.
You are the best gift for anyone who wants to learn from a revered family icon- dare I say the best grandma- with all the cooking smarts that will be passed down for a long time!
Xox from one who still loves to cook for friends and family
😋 delish Nona Gina!
Beautiful singing, I'm so inspired by your cooking and canning.
Where you been??? I miss you. and your cooking too. I’m glad you’re okay ❤
Love watching you cook, you remind me so much of my own mom! 💜💕
I love you like my own mamma, God rest her soul! Thanks for sharing your recipe!!❤🎉😮😊

And there she goes again. It's not done until this lady starts singing. Hello my friend. You look beautiful, love the earrings. When you started with that unions, garlick and mushrooms, i could smell and taste it. You have the biggest and kindest heart of all. God bless you and your family. You be safe my friend. ❤🎉
