The Magic of Pasta Grannies: a Chat with Creator Vicky Bennison – Episode 17

Flavor of Italy podcast - A podcast by Wendy Holloway

Categories:

Don’t miss this wonderful chat with Vicky Bennison, owner and creator of Pasta Grannies. Her videos of octogenarian (and older) Italian women making homemade pasta are captivating and heartwarming. Plus they dig deep into the hundreds upon hundreds of different pasta shapes throughout Italy. Vicky realized right off the bat that video was the perfect platform to capture these delightful women at work making homemade pasta. Video allowed Vicky to bridge the language gap and share what is fundamentally the visual magic of homemade pasta making: the pasta itself coupled with delightful women who have most of them been making pasta by hand for half a century. Wonderful photographs of these women, links and info in the show notes!
