Hello, and welcome to another
episode of the podcast. Spending time with our family and friends
has never felt so important - and so often, this means cooking for
the ones you love. Who better to take inspiration from than the
Pasta Grannies who have spent their lives plating comfort and
connection? Today on the podcast, I’m excited to serve up a
conversation with Vicky Bennison.
Vicky is the creator of the Pasta Grannies YouTube Channel and
author of two cookbooks by the same name, Pasta Grannies: The
Official Cookbook and her newest book, Pasta
Grannies: Comfort Cooking. Today on the podcast, we talk about
Vicky's original goal of collecting handmade pasta shapes in Italy,
which turned into Vicky's falling in love with the grannies and
their dedication to home cooking. Vicky shares stories of two of
the grannies who, at 91 and 99, respectively, are making comfort
foods every day using ingredients that they grow or that are a
reflection of the area around their homes.
