Teresa Luis....DO NOT KNOW...BUT CHERISH THESE VIDEOS AND BE GLAD/PROUD THAT YOU DID record. You have a forever moment that you can relive all the feelings of that day. You are so very lucky. The rest of us are kicking ourselves because we did not think of doing the same....or modern tech. was not up to par. God Bless your Grandma. Merry Christmas girlie. Please do not take offense to the 'girlie' word. We all live varieties of each other's lives. Most of us had Grandma's and have our own stories. Peace and Love to you and yours.
thank you for sharing the method. My grandma stretched her dough by hand to cover her entire dining table, on a floured tablecloth. It was then rolled by lifting the edge of the cloth and coaxing the roll along. Then it was curled into a snail and put in one large, square pan to rise and bake. Such an honor to have been able to make it with her. I still make it her way but my table isn't nearly large enough.
Thank you, thank you.....l wish l was there with you all....my mum used to do this withme....l thoroughly enjoy watching you all, it reminded me of my time with my mum and the lovely atmosphere of cooking and bonding with our mothers. l can see your family has this.What a lovely mum and family you have. I see it in your daughter. May God bless you all. With love from Melbourne, Australia... Croatian-Australian. Pozdrav sivima!
I grew up having nutroll and poppyseed roll and is excited to find this video. My Nana made these during the holidays as well, and I have missed having them all these years. I am planning to give it a try! Thanks So Much for showing me how it's made! :)
i really enjoyed this video; I learned that you can roll the dough "per loaf" meaning i dont have to have a 6 ft table :) Martha is so sweet! I could hardly believe she was 91! Perhaps 'another' video on how she has managed to age so very nicely and keep a sweet nature and sense of humor :) I enjoyed hearing her recount memories...so interesting her mother responded to a "request for a bride". Oh my goodness isn't that something?! Thank you for opening your home and hearts it was a real treat! I am going to try Martha's recipe for potica this year :) Merry Christmas !
When baking, amounts matter, but back in the day(we can all relate), it was by sight. I could not exactly eyeball 1 t./T....1/2 or 1/4 C. of anything...through repetition, we learn. That is the beauty and that is what makes every time have different outcomes...talking more of meal recipes vs. baking, but I think you get it.
Povitica i dont know but orehnjača means basically walnuts made of walnuts had it lots of times my grandgrandma did it lots of times yes in Croatia btw 😊
what a wonderful acct of family hx I wish you would show it finished and cut into a slice my grandmother made "nutbread" every holiday. after she died I found an old recipe for it from a newspaper but whenever I tried to make it, it came out drier than hers and the layers were more separated than hers I wonder if she too skipped the second rise of the dough that her recipe also called for. you are so lucky to have this on video. happy holidays to you this christmas
I have some questions...Saran Wrap was not released for cooking until 1949. How did those in the old country cover the dough to let it rise if this space-age plastic was not available? Could one substitute almonds or pecans for the walnuts? Also, is it possible to get a copy of Grandma Mary's cookbook? I would love to have one. Sincerely, J. D.

Potica is a Slovenian word! Croatians call this Orehnjaca or Povitca

She mentioned they were in Washington state. Which town?
walnut filling has 1 "cube" butter, or 1 cup? thx!
1 cube or 1/2 cup of butter
Aha!. Thanks. In USA we don't have cubes, but we do have "sticks". Glad I asked.
Mom's on UA-cam!
