As a vegetarian, this was my confused Calabrese grandparents go to meal to feed me. I love it so much! My nonno still makes this for me every time I visit. Your lovely nonna makes me miss mine dearly.
I found your channel today. I watched a few of your videos but this one had me in tears (still), this beautiful nonna reminded me so much of my nonna. I miss her so, so, so much and her cooking. Thank you.... I subscribed, now I'm heading to watch The Godfather (the trilogy) Grazie
How sweet your Nonna is and wonderful :) You are truly blessed:) My Grandma would do the same with the Ricotta container except she would put escarole and send me home with it :) It so beautiful the time you share with your Nonna . Especially in times like this I’m so grateful for how too my Grandma taught me to make the simplest ingredients like beans into a delicious meal for the family.
OMG, my Nonna used ti have a very similar "crock" she was from Campo Basso and used the same exact way you and Nonna are cooking this and this how my family has cook it fir ever. I love this dish and have it very often. YUM I have to make this tonight. Love you Nonna you are the best. GID BLESS and Grazie
I make pasta with marinara sauce and chickpeas all the time. I didn't even know this was a regular thing. I like to add some tinned sweet corn in there too.
Everything looks great. Watched a few videos. My Italian family shares the same surname as Nonna Angelina P! My wife and I have been exploring our Italian roots and enjoy making authentic recipes. Although, I am not exactly a pizzaiolo. I'll leave it to the pros. before I get "acquainted" with the rolling pin lol God Bless
Hey, it's a nice video. But I would really would like to hear more of your grandma speaking in Italian while you translate. I think the lovely lady will feel more at ease and some conversation in beautiful Italian will increase the appeal of this clip. Regards.
Your nonna looks and sounds like my nonna (Graziela) Who was born in foggia, Puglia. The recipe looks like hers as well, and thus is truly authentic. Both your nonna and the dish bring back great memories. Grazie tante. Where in italy did your nonna come from? One of my favorite side dishes of my Nonna was Tomatoes that were quartered, and then soaked in some sort of olive oil, water, and onion and salt and pepper. Have you ever done that with her on video? If so, could you please send a link via a reply to this comment.
This is so my kind of dish. Just wondering how much water you left in the ceci pot before adding the other ingredients. The consistency looked perfect!
Question: Nonna said she makes containers of this and Fagoli. Does she freeze these dishes and if so does she only freeze the sauce and add the pasta later?
Kathleen Brown she’s actually never frozen this before! lol but if she did she would only freeze the sauce and make the pasta fresh when you want to use it
Nick Tib my family is from Mola di Bari! I love black Ceci!! A lady from Rutigliano used to rent my zia’s villa in Cozze and she would always bring them to us!! I brought some back to America a few times. Very hard to find here.
I want to such a simpathic nonna.Maybe when you married me then i have this fantastic pasta e ceci and such a nonna.Can you help me?Also i mean this young girl clearly.
