Half the fun of the Italian kitchen is getting everyone in on the act, even the kids are kneading pasta, the wine is flowing the jokes and smiles are all around..

I have a couple of recipes passed down from the Spanish grannies. As one of my cousins saya, pain in the a$$ but so worth it.

Italian grandmothers making pasta? I don’t understand. I thought pasta grew on trees.

People have been going around Italy and Sicily for close to 7 years now filming Grannies who have been making handmade pasta since they were toddlers. The typical cook is in her 70's up to over 100. Each video is less than 15 minutes so it's a very entertaining filler channel:

Much like the Foxfire books, it documents things that are becoming lost.

Same here, back in the 50’s, my father and uncle would make
rather large barrels of red wine. As a pre-teen I did all the heavy lifting and none of the sampling.lol

Much like the Foxfire books, it documents things that are becoming lost.I never thought of it that way but you're right in most of the world. In Italy it is still being passed down from mother to daughter. I don't think they will ever stop making their own pasta. Most everywhere else is satisfied with the dried, boxed stuff.

No no no...money grows on trees. Pick some, then go BUY the pasta.
