Pasta Grannies discovers pasta with sardines from Sicily 

There is NOTHING more beautiful than an Italian grandmother smiling as she brings you food.

My mother, who was from Sicilia, always mentioned this pasta, it reminded her of her childhood ❤

I live in Sicily ,in a different town from Rosetta and we prepare this recipe on the Friday just before easter. ❣

The traditional dish of Sicily. Loved seeing her make this I make it as well. Pasta con Sarde. Mine is a sweet sauce with a salty contrast of breadcrumbs. We add currants and pine nut. Every village has their own way. Made this for the family a few months ago to rave reviews!! It’s our soul food!! Beautiful!!!

Your videos are completely awesome. Those recipes are so rare and precious, its amazing!

This dish is famous, if you happen to go to Sicily this is a dish to try , simply fabulous 😍

What a mix! Loved her saying kitchen is always a party 💜

I wanted to dig in and enjoy that wonderful meal. Thank you, Rosetta! Thank you Pasta Grannies!

excellent stuff. 😁

Oh my gosh! What a wonderfully different (for me) dish!! Looks wonderful!!

Love the idea of fennel used. Looks delicious.

Thank you so much for your unique recipe! I love how you picked the fresh fennel and I was able to see a glimpse of your part of the world. 🌹❤

My nana always used some sugar in the tomato sauce when it was made with tomato paste. It overcomes the bitterness from the tomato seeds. If the sauce is from fresh tomatoes and is put through a tomato prepares to remove the seeds, sugar is not needed.Thanks for these great recipes. I'm gonna make this one today, not waiting for Easter or Fathers Day or some other excuse.

*_OH, HOW WONDERFUL!! WISH I WAS THERE!!!_*

Strange? Sounds and looks absolutely delicious.

Just made this exactly like she did. Delicious! No overwhelming fishy flavor at all. The sugar makes this dish very interesting. All the hard work is so worth it. Grazie! ❤

Being Sicilian, I really appreciate this video. Reminds me of my mother, she loved to cook . Delicious video, thanks.

This is "pasta con sarde." Traditionally made for St. Joseph's Day on March 19th ( which is also Fathers Day in Italy ). Deliciouso!!!

Amazing Spring tour of Sicily! Thank you!

This is what I would love to have for dinner tonight!

I luv this recipe w/ sardines 😍😘👌❤

I've always loved fish on my pasta. Definitely trying this out this weekend! Thank you Vicky for another wonderful video

Nonna Rosetta you are 'tbe real deal''. Just like Mamma Virginia used to make!..I came looking for this recipe for father's day. Perfect! Many tbanks for this upload.

It looks amazing! Will give this a try for sure!

Once again,I have to say,I love Pasta Grannies,❤ God Bless this Nonnas smile,it's just beautiful ,as every single video that I've seen.Thank you, Vicki and everyone.❤😘 Stay Safe and be healthy everyone. xo🤞❤😘

This is absolutely delightful! Delizioso

Wonderful! It is so nice to see real traditional recipes! Not the watered down British or Americanised versions!

Vicky, i really like this recipe and i really like sardines. I'm land locked in kentucky and fresh or even frozen sardines are impossible to find. I try and find the best jarred sardines packed in olive oil for my recipes, i do not like the tinny taste of the ones packed in tin cans, God bless you ladies and have a wonderful day.

This would make the Pope happy! It certainly made me happy, what a delight! At 62, I STILL miss my Italian grammie (grandmother), I am sure she watched her mom make something like this. Thank you, I will be making this very soon to share :)

I made a version of it was and knew it had possibilities. Rosetta's looked really good! ; )

Amazing recipe one of the best! Mille Grazie!

"if you put fennel in, we're gonna fall out" Seems a wonderful dish. Next time in Sicily will definitely try it.

That dish looks so good !

This recipe is AMAZING. Just made it for a slow weekend lunch and we were going back for seconds and thirds! A new favourite in this household.(and all the more heartwarming to know it hails from the region where GGF was raised!) Thanks Pasta Grannies and thanks Rosetta!

This sounds like it would be amazing! I love these videos. I don’t know who could possibly dislike these videos...monsters maybe?

It has my favourites: sardines and pasta. I have to try this someday.

Weird and original. I would love to try it. Thanks!

wow, what interesting flavors. i used to forage young wild mustard tops with my italian neighbor. she too was a fabulous pasta granny chef before youtube. i've wanted to try melting anchovies into sauces but am held back by not knowing how to store remainder of anchovies. oh, and my grandmother used to dry homegrown tomatoes on window screens in the sun in the summer. such nice traditions are found on this channel including such a wonderful chef such as this one...wish i had her head of hair and lovely smile.

Hi, 100% Sicilian lady here! I have made this many times. Slightly different. But alway sweet! That’s really the goodness of it. Sweet/ salt/ sour. Soooo good

Buona la pasta con la sarda.. Brava signora 👍

Yummmmy

This is the moment you eat and eat until you almost explode your stomach!

The greatest channel on RU-vid

That looks delicious! I need to try this! 😋

that looks so incredibly good

Yum

Hello Pasta Grannies (^^ ! Your pasta with sardine dish is the perfect recipe for a meal. Various cooking ideas were helpful (^^) Thank you for the wonderful video!

When Catholics had Meatless Fridays, My mother made the Spaghetti sauce with Tuna fish. it tasted pretty good.

Yummm. Now that I will have to try.

My Zia makes this around Easter time. God I miss this food

Not too sure about the sweet breadcrumbs 😬but the rest sounds awesome... Now where the heck do I get fennel greens and fresh Sardines...

Great video! Thank you!

Doesn’t sound strange to me. I’d LOVE to try it.

I tried cooking fresh herring fillets once, absolutely horrible. But canned skinless and boneless sardines, wonderful.

I've been hoping for this recipe!!!!!!!

The dish is knew to me. It looks tasty! I have never known of using bread crumbs like cheese. I would prefer a combination of half bread crumbs and half cheese. I would love to taste it!!!

Favolosa❤️

I predict I would 💌 this dish!

This looks great 😍😍🔥🔥

That looks delicious

Yummm!!! I love sardines.

Wonderful

I love this... looks amazing. I would love to hang out with her. Sweet lady

Yum yum

I would like to know what’s your favorite dish here in Italy?😀

I'm trying this.. ho fatto la mia lista di ingredienti

Well, a dish not for me but fun to watch nevertheless.

I don’t even like sardines and I think this would be good

Spettacolo

k i am not alone in thinking that this dish has some friggen assertive flavors lol ,,,

Does it come across as super fishy? It seemed like she cook those sardines and anchovies a lot!

beautifullllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

Any way this could be made gluten free.

pasta is great, but in tiny portion

Where are the raisins?

👏👍🌷🌹

This is a St Joseph menus used to celebrate the feast of St Joseph. A poor man’s diet.

A no cheese recipe

Ugh my aunt Eleanor used to make this for us on st Lucia... I hate it!

I hate to say it, but this is the very first recipe on this channel I don't want to try. Fennel and sardines/anchovies are VERY strong flavors.

I'd love this if the fennel was left out...ugh! can't stand the stuff..
