Aww Vincenzo, your nonna is such a beautiful lovely woman! Great character, and her smile is worth millions. It's always so refreshing to see you two cooking together 😄
I cannot convey how much I appreciate you sharing this with us! This was very special, not many people are willing to share their family recipes. There are people that may argue that some of the steps taken were unnecessary. But those steps are what made this recipe Artisanal. I think the most important steps that people would tend to skip are the ultra pasteurization and the cold "cure" of the liqueur. When high proof alcohol is chilled in the freezer is mellows the "bite" and changes the mouth feel. That is why Russian Vodkas are normally served very, very cold.
I could watch this beautiful video 100 times. It gives me such joy, and inspiration. I made my first batch, really not knowing anything about what it would taste like, since I never had any Limoncello before. It was Heavenly! I dream of moving to Italy's ALMAFI Coast, raise lemons, and make this Wonderful treat. Thank you!
You're very welcome! 😊 It's wonderful to hear that you find inspiration and learning from our vlogs. Italian cuisine has a wide-reaching influence, and it's fantastic that you're exploring it all the way in Kenya. Keep up the great work at the Italian restaurant, and may your culinary knowledge continue to grow! 🇮🇹👨🍳😄
You are very lucky. My grandma passed away 29 years ago. I was just 4 years old. I don't remember about her nothing. My mother honored her memories many times. I jealous you a little bit. I wish many healty and happy many years for her. God bless to your family.
I love that you make her smile. Vincenzo, please tell your nonna that we love her. She's invited to Poland, and I'm sure so many places around the world (and so are you, as a translator of course, hahaha).
Nonna truly is a culinary maestro, and I'm honored to carry on her delicious traditions. Your kind words warm my heart-thank you for the love and appreciation.
Cried when I watched this video!!!!! Miss her already & can’t wait to make her creamy Limoncello!!!!!!! I Thank Nonna for all her Special recipes & can’t wait for your Book!!!!!!❤️❤️❤️
Very good recipe. I made the normal Limoncello with water using your grandmother's recipe, and it came out spectacular. This "crema di limoncello" is a bit strong for my taste, I think it would be good to use 3 liters of milk and 1.5kg of sugar for the liter of maserated alcohol.
Just made my first limoncello. So delicious. I am visiting my in-laws in Sicily in a months time. I will grab some lemons from the garden and the 96% alcohol since you can't get that where I live. I used 70% for the limoncello.
I wish I could upload a picture to show you the fruits of my labor! I followed Nonna's recipe and OMG! This stuff is so good! It was my first time making something like this. Grazie mille, Vicenzo and Nonna for this recipe. Top-notch!
I'm thrilled to hear that you're planning to make it for your family! 🍷👨👩👧👦 It's indeed a perfect after-dinner liqueur. Enjoy the experience and the delightful flavors it brings. Cheers to creating memorable moments with your loved ones! 🥂🍽️
A few summers ago, I had the best drink ever. We hiked to the top of Vesuvius (Napoli) and all the way at the end, we bought some Crema De Meloncello. Now I can make it myself!
To be completely honest, never like this, not even close! But I’m looking forward to try Nona’s proper Limoncello recipe! Thank you for sharing these culinary pearls with us❤️
Thanks for sharing this recepie, dear Vincenzo and Mamma. Lovely to see the 2 of you! Little story, my Mamma has a holiday house in Italy and every year when we come, the Italian neighbours make crema di Limoncello. Always love it and asked for the recepie many times, but they don't want to share the recepie. Some sort of family secret. But now I can make my own! I'm very grateful you were willing to share your family recepie. Thanks a lot! Greetings from Amsterdam👏 Btw* I love all your recepies. I'm also super happy I found your channel a few years ago. Your pasta carbonara is my kids and myself absolute favourite dish! We love it! By coincidence I asked them today what their nr1 favourite meal was. They answered Pasta Carbonara on nr2 and nr1 Mcdonalds😂. But when I asked them what their favourite dish that I cooked for them, they all said pasta carbonara! Thanks to you my dear Vincenzo. Can't thank you enough! You're the absolute best!
Such heartwarming words from Amsterdam! 🇳🇱💕 Delighted you're enjoying our recipes and finding joy in cooking. Pasta Carbonara wins the hearts, right? 😄🍝 Keep spreading Italian love! 🇮🇹👨🍳👩🍳👵🍋
@@vincenzosplate Haha thank you for your kind reply dear Vincenzo. Much appreciated! And Yes, your Carbonara definitely won over their hearts, and mine! Thanks again and I'm hoping to learn much more great Italian recepies from you! 🇳🇱♥️🇮🇹
Friend of mine gave me a recipe very similar. It took years being friends with an Italian regular before he would finally share the recipe with my friend. Friend also did a variation that was half lemon, half lime, with basil and it was delicious! Buddy’s recipe is 1.75L everclear 12 lemons zest - set aside for at least 3 days 1 gallon (3.8L) 2% milk 2 quarts whole cream 4 lbs sugar 1 Tbsp vanilla extract Bring dairy to almost a boil and right before boiling, mix in the sugar. Once mixed, refrigerate until cool. Then add everclear into the milk solution. Let sit together for another day or two before straining through a sieve/mesh filter. Same as yours though - best frozen, and it gets better the longer it has.
That's interesting! Your friend's variation sounds delicious too. Thanks for sharing the recipe, and enjoy experimenting with different flavors! 🍋🍋🍋🥛🍦😄
The Empress of the Italian Kitchen, Nonna Igea, is back. Hurraaaaah! Thank you very much, Vincenzo, for sharing your wonderful cooking documentary video with us. Greetings to Suzanne, to Sebastian, to your families in Australia and in Italy from the Swiss Kitchen Dummy.
@@vincenzosplate mancano 15 gg ed il limoncello con la ricetta di tua nonna sarà pronto. Purtroppo, in Canada si trova solo l'alcol at 70%, speriamo bene...
Ciao if I may add a little tip, 3 day is enough for the skins it also keeps it’s awesome colour, any longer it starts to oxidise and go orange in colour
Ah, the Sunday tradition of risotto with Nana's touch. 🍚💕 Memories like those create the heartwarming essence of Italian cooking. Grazie for sharing! 🇮🇹👨🍳
@@vincenzosplate Si! Certo. Assolutamente! This month, and I'll have enough to bring to the family Thanksgiving celebration. It will be a change from the Kalua and hot buttered rums.
Great video, thank you. I have just returned from Lake Garda in Italy where I was introduced to creme Limoncello for the first time. I loved it so much I bought some home with me and now it's nearly gone I want to make my own. I have a couple of questions, when you put it in the freezer, does it freeze in the bottle? If so, once it's frozen do you thaw it out and then leave it in the fridge? many thanks.
Glad you enjoyed Lake Garda! 🇮🇹❤️ Limoncello can freeze slightly but won't fully solidify in a typical home freezer. After freezing, let it thaw a bit in the fridge before serving. Salute! 🍋🥂👨🍳
I made this recipe & it tastes great. However, the texture seems to have some small pieces of coagulated milk (maybe is what it is?). Any ideas on what I may have done wrong? Should the milk have boiled for the 20 min's, THEN add sugar? I probably added the sugar about 5 mins into the low boil, then let low boil another 15. Stirring but not touching bottom. Pan had stuck residue at bottom when I was finished. Thanks so much, I am not a experienced cook, so much appreciated!
Ciao! While using nonna's limoncello in cocktails is a creative idea, it can indeed curdle when mixed with certain ingredients like dairy. Be cautious and test it in small quantities to see how it interacts with other cocktail components. Salute! 🍋🍹🇮🇹
ciao vincenzo, ho scoperto una variante incredibile per il limocello normale. Ho usato meta limoni e meta cedri, ho fatto marinare le bucce per un mese/ mese e mezzo e poi invece di fare lo sciroppo con zucchero normale ho usato quello di canna. (L'ho diluito con sciroppo normale perchè dominava troppo i limoni, però quella miscela secondo me ha migliorato il limoncello.) . dovresti assolutamente provarla! :)))
Your Nonna (grandma) is exceptional how to make your Nonna's Limoncello. I have my grandma, but my grandma has died at 78. I'm so sad and i miss my grandma. Greetings from Indonesia 🇲🇨
Nonnas are truly special, and their wisdom in the kitchen is invaluable. We appreciate your kind words and support! 😊👵🇮🇹 Enjoy the delicious recipes they share with us! 👨🍳🍝😄
@Vincenzo´s Plate, I had just been in Giardini Naxos! Every evening, my husband and I went for dinner at La Trinacria close to our hotel: Villa Giardini. One evening, we got Limoncello to our espresso! Man, I thought of you, said to my husband: "That Limoncello, Vincenzo would have LOVED!" You must really try that place - even the locals gather there, ´cause the food is celicious and the spirit are high. Bring your dear Nonna, she is gonna love that place, typical Sicilian and loveable
Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience! 😊🍋🇮🇹 I'll definitely try that place and share it with Nonna. Hope you enjoy the recipe too! Grazie! 🙏❤️
so it is ok if the milk will create kind of small flakes when mixed with alcohol as I see in the video, you just need to shake it from time to time, correct?
I'm definitely making this, this is what I call sneaky Pete, it's 190 proof but with the sugar , lemon and milk, it goes down smooth then bam up side head with a lemon hammer, rome new york
@@vincenzosplate I thought so thank you. I consulted Chat GPT for a recipe but for some reason it wanted to use 3 cups of milk and 1 cup of cream with 1 litre of alcohol which just didn't sound right and there aren't any recipes on here that show Orangecello. Regards
I do not have access to such wonderful lemons. Is it possible to make limoncello cream using limoncello purchased in the store that is already sweetened?
For all of you wanting to try this, please understand how important it is to use *organic lemons only*. If the lemons have been treated with pesticides, chemical fertilizers, waxes, etc, that crap will immediately infuse into your alcohol and 1. it can make you very sick and 2. it will taste bad. I won't make my own limoncello in the US because I don't live in a climate where lemons are grown so they're all imported and thus, preserved with a coating on the peel 😢 I will definitely try to make this crema with Pallini (my favorite) though! 🤤
Yes, the quantity/amount of each ingredient will change if you use vodka instead of alcohol 96 or Everclear. Vodka is a lower-proof alcohol, so you will need to use more of it to get the same effect.
I can see it online, there are a few different style of lemoncello out there. Which one is the original? This one, ot the others made with water? Let me know please.

Does cooking the milk denature the proteins and prevent it from curdling? Also is the base alcohol 95% (ever clear) or 95 proof (strong vodka)?
This looks really good! Thanks for the recipe!
Hope you enjoy
Another great recipe. If you can’t find pure alcohol, Vincenzo, do you think that you could use a good vodka?
Absolutely, if you can't find pure alcohol, using a good quality vodka is a great alternative for your crema di limoncello recipe.
@@vincenzosplate OK then I’m gonna try this. Grazie 🙏
Hi, is it the same recipe to make Creme Orangecello, just use Oranges instead of Lemons?
Yes, correct, it's with oranges

Yes, the quantity/amount of each ingredient will change if you use vodka instead of alcohol 96 or Everclear. Vodka is a lower-proof alcohol, so you will need to use more of it to get the same effect.
