- Culurgiones are beautiful wheat-ear shaped ravioli from Sardinia.Every village in the Ogliastra area has its own version and Ottavia shares hers from Tertanía, south west Sardinia. Enjoy both her pasta and her weaving!
Pasta dough: 300g semola/durum wheat flour, 120ml water, 30ml olive oil
Filling: 500g potatoes, 100g fresh goats curd, 25g pecorino, 1 tablespoon dried mint, pinch of salt, 1/2 garlic clove, a little flour if necessary, 100ml olive oil fried with 1 garlic clove.
Dress with tomato sauce and grated pecorino cheese
Their pinching and folding is artwork. Beautiful.
Last summer I worked in a restaurant that served home made ravioli. We rolled out around 8+ (16 at times) kilos of dough every other day for spaghetti and ravioli. Man, it was not fun. And this signorina makes hundreds, even a thousand at times! At a ripe old age of 80+
Here is to thousands and thousands more ravioli for her family and friends! And the time shared with her loved ones.
Cheers.
You should see, I don't even say try, how "passata di pomodoro" is done, that's a ton of work for tens of persons, consider that at the end you should have your passata, meaning for you and your family for 1 year.
OMG, she's so cute!!! What a sweet zia!!!
Oh I LOVED this! This woman is something else! Her and I have allot in common just looking at her home with the beautiful baskets on the wall and the beautiful cloth on the refrigerator and when she walked into the next room and wow all the house plants! I chuckled too hearing the english house sparrows chirping! They must be everywhere! They added to the joy of this video!
I love Ottavia's waste-not-want-not approach, a gal after my own heart.
When she said: "The person who likes mint wins today" I almost jumped out of my chair (I totally lurve mint in dishes where it's not expected).
Brava Ottavia!
I love to see the grannies each week. It's so marvelous that they get to be filmed making their wonderful dishes.
She was so pretty when young(weren’t we all?) and her husband very handsome. What a skill!
LOST ARTS!! FABULOUS!!
Those culurgiones are just beautiful. The pleating is extraordinary and they have such an elegant shape, like nothing I've ever seen before. Glorious.
I'm from sardinia and this video is amazing. This is the true spirit of our island, thank you
those hands. what a beauty!
Oh Octavia I could watch you all day!
They look like pasta presents they are so beautiful! Ottavia and Lara have real talent and I bet they are delicious in addition to being beautiful! TFS, Sharon😊
That looks wonderful! What joy!
I actually cried when she began showing all those pictures. I just want to give her a big hug.
Such a pleasure hearing sardinian language
did you see how beautiful her and her husband were? they were once young and beautiful. Thank God for this channel.. Preserving history and tradition and culture. I would love a much longer version as well.
Sardinia: best beaches and pristine sea. Unique nature, tradition and DNA. There is something special about the island I cannot explain. Love Mirto, Mamuthones, Tenores, Fregola, Sebadas,Wines ,Ichnusa and Horse Meat Caddozzone…I could go for ever…
Amazing. How sad that much of the world is becoming Americanised and does not live with heart, like this. But how wonderful that family and good cooking are still alive in places. Long may it last, and God bless these grannies. Thank you.
So now we have weaving grannies as well 👏👌😊
hi Paul, Ottavia is our first weaving grandmother, though a lot are expert seamstresses and can do embroidery and so on. 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky
This is the best channel!! I love watching these wonderful ladies (and men!) making their traditional dishes and talk about their families! What a gem! 😋😋😋
Mi manca mia nonna, che riposi in pace 😭
Please we really need more frequent videos, we can't live without Pasta Grannies. They cheer us up more than you can imagine, they're simply a therapy and gives pure happiness. This video is so sweet, we enjoy every second of it. Please try to upload for frequent videos 💚❣️
Those culurgiones look lovely, and what a nicely decorated home. I admit at times I'd love to see a longer video format when possible to learn more about them, like her weaving.
Look at all the history these ladies are sharing. Great video guys.
The pasta made by hand with the hands of grannies has a unique flavor in the world: the love and energy of these women is a fundamental part of the recipe. 🥰 Tasting fresh homemade pasta is a life-changing discovery that makes all other types of industrial pasta terrible.
E la cucina sarda è tra le migliori che abbiamo qui in Italia ❤️❤️. Grazie mille dalla Toscana per quest'altro meraviglioso video 🙏
What an adorable nonna
Yum! Potatoes, cheese and pasta. You can't go wrong with this trio.🍴
BRAVA !
Sono stata nella bella Sardegna.
È buona la cucina sarda.
Maybe like an Italian Perogi! What a delight Ottavia is!
Thankyou Ottavia, I especially enjoyed the photos of your Familia & the beautiful picture of your engagement. God bless you
She's so cute! And the dish looks delicious!
she reminds my grandmother from making treads and kneading with the loom, epic
Beautiful beautiful beautiful👏👏👏beautiful nonna, beautiful food and beautiful video!!!!❤thank you pasta grannies for these lovely momentos😍
What a great tip on how to practise!
I suspect making those neat little folds along the edge of her dumplings is MUCH trickier than she makes it look.
It's not easy, but you get the hang of it after making them a few times. In my experience it's moderately difficult in terms of pasta making.
Yum, reminds me of the pyrohy of my Ukrainian heritage. Interesting to see the addition of mint and olive oil.
Everything was lovely, her personality, her cooking, her kitchen and not least her stories
I miss my granny so much, those videos make me feel better
I have so much sympathy for Ottavia. I wish her to make uncountable more Cullurgiones! To live on managing her skills and making her family happy with this wonderful dish!
Que bela a nona Otávia! Que casal lindo formava com seu marido!
I tried culurgiones at a Sardinian restaurant, they were the best pasta I've ever had
Culurgiones are sooooo yummi!
Goodness, this is so good!
There is only one single downside to learning cooking from your grandma (regardless of where you come from). No matter how hard you try, you always end up cooking for a family of at least 8. Upside is, you become very popular among colleagues at work, because someone has to finish the "leftovers".
hi Robert, that's very true! There is always the freezer ... 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky
Yup. I grew up in a family of 7. There are 4 in mine. We always have left overseas.
Fantastica! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Absolutely love all the videos of Pasta Grannies.. I'm a great fan of Italian food even though I have tasted very few dishes. I just want to be there to taste all those dishes and spend time with the grannies to hear their stories and live a little like them. I felt the Grannies would be happy if their food is tasted by the guests first and appreciate it instead of they themselves taste it and tell its good.
Culurgiones is my favourite pasta ever. I would prepare it and eat it every day 💛
Zia ottavia for president 💕💕💕
Another unknown classic.. Cheers 🥂
And that's the beauty of it! Here we always discover new things, even we Italians !
Great recipe and I love her spirit.
God bless these ladies! The baskets, the loom, the earthenware bowls; This dish is beautiful and they make it look (almost) easy even though we know the years of experience in each bite. Another gem!
hi Scott, I'm glad you enjoyed meeting Ottavia and Laura 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky
For these beautiful grannies, cooking is an art and is always done with so much love. Brava for another wonderful dish.
culurgiones is my favorite pasta for sure, been so long since last eating it
These look very yummy, good video!
They look deceptively simple but I bet they tasted incredibly rich!
Amei; quão bom são nossas senhorinhas e suas artes
They looked like movie stars as a young couple!
I loved her. We ate similar ones called Khinkali in Georgia 🇬🇪
These look exactly like the potato dumplings made in Caucasus, in particular Circassian .
Beautifully made culurgiones! Lovely ladies! I love it when they talk about their families, the past and show photos. It adds so much depth to what they are cooking.
Yes for me this is not a cooking show it's about the lives of the ( mostly ) ladies that cook the pasta. Today the bit about her not throwing away a paper bag made me laugh as did she. Working a loom at 87? A a twinkle in her eye . It is also about the present. These ladies remember the past but live in the now.
Yes I do too!
Just precious
my GOSH those look good
Thank You Ottavia!!!💃🏽🌄👍🍷
this is the best channel on yootoob & by a long shot!
thank you 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky
Yum I want to make these
Lovely, lovely, lovely!!!!!!!♥️
She’s great 🥰
Beautiful!
Che arte ❤
So tasty 😊❤
Her husband, in the picture, WOW.
These look so beautiful and delicious. 😋
Brava!!
It amazes me how tradition is never ending. In america they are known as Pierogies
They are different fill different pasta and different Countryes
You mean in Poland 😁
Nice food
Bless her heart ❤️
Reminds me of working with my zia in Albano
Che brava
Ohhhh afiyet olsun büyük anne👍💯👌🌹🌈💯👍
I always love seeing the women roll out the pasta the old-fashioned way. It was kind of disappointing to see this one using a pasta machine. Still, it's easier to get a consistent thickness that way, so I can't really fault her for that, and the recipe sounds delicious.
❤️
I wish I could give a heart.
Hah. Here we are:
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🤗
🤤
We want Nonna Rosina
soon! 😀🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky
it's essentially Polish pierogi
Is that salt she added to the sauce?
Mmmm. Minced cheese.
In the US think that 2 starches should not go together. What do they know about food????
Nothing.
Yes, you can mix flour and potatoes (like in gnocchi) but also make sauces made of potatoes for pasta. Or fill the pasta with potatoes.
Italian cuisine is one of the greatest legacies and heritages of our planet, it is about the art of creating a masterpiece from almost nothing, it is about refining and perfecting simple products, about love for nature, tradition and excellent and refined taste. Even the poorest grandmother in the most remote village in Italy (just an example) can make you a meal that you have never dreamed of. Well done Ottavia❤️Bravo❤️
Such a simple yet significant difference between dabs of sauce and covered in sauce.
The creators of "how many ways can I shape this dough and put some tomato on top"
@@bldmyamean8352 + Herbs, seafood, wine, cheese, tree nuts, pork, olive oil.
I think someone called it “cucina povera” (my spelling.? Is bad?). something like maybe “food for poor people “ but I find it fascinating what you can do with just a few ingredients and not being wasteful.
Anyone else want to hug these Grannies and just enjoy a cup of tea or coffee with them. They must have so many stories!
Wonderful. Everything in this video brought back so many memories from my childhood. All those baskets and sifters on the wall we had and used all the time. Home made dried mint and not store bought, gives a dish a wonderful flavor. It can be used in many different ways. Love that white cheese and that beautiful olive oil. Great dish for people who are missing some teeth :)
What a lovely lady and how nice to see her engagement photo of her as a young girl!
Ottavia has a beautiful family! I loved when she showed her great nonna and her nonna along with the rest of the family photos🧡
She is an amazing granny with many talents 🙂!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 she’s so cute! Love the family history she shared with us!!!!!
Ottavia has so much love and care about this dish, and remains ever so humble herself at the end of this video !!!
I wish I could make pinches that beautiful. I’m going to practice
Wonderful to see Ottavia dispensing the Passata from the long-life pack, not through the screw cap but from a knife slit! Lateral thinking...
Faster
those are similar to "ruskie pierogi" in Poland which have potato bacon filling. I will have to try this recipe.
