Happy Mother’s Day! As every well-fed child knows, there are some dishes that no one can make as well as mom can. This definitely applies to Eva’s mother, Mamma Rosa. Try as she might, there are a handful of dishes Eva can’t cook like her mamma can.

But I’m craving Mamma Rosa’s specialties! So we decided to give her a call to see if we could finally figure out what her delicious secrets are…

  1. My mother was not a very good cook(my dad was 1st gen. Sicilian and was a great cook, but my mom’s spaghetti sauce was great and her chicken soup was the best. I love you both so much. I always say a prayer for you.

  2. If Mamma always cooks best (and she does), the solution to cooking the best food is simple. You two need to have a baby. Then Eva will become a Mamma and her cooking will then automatically become the best. You can't argue with logic.

  3. Nonostante sia italiano mi sono dovuto comunque leggere i sottotitoli in inglese perché il dialetto calabrese proprio non lo capisco ahahha

  4. In Spain we also eat tripe with tomato in a dish called callos, usually with a little bit of chorizo. Looks very similar. I've never tried it because I always thought it looked disgusting but my dad loves them! Maybe one day I'll be brave 😅

  5. beef tripe is awesome. more people should eat tripe! Next time you go to Mexico, have menudo soup. A good tripe soup is heavenly.

  6. I'm not a tripe person, regardless of the style it was made or how much I try it. My wife loves it and her recipe for it (which looks similar to this one, though her soffritto is a little different) gets rave reviews from all. I'll send you guys a pic next time she makes it.

  7. i love my mum 🥲😘😭. Harpa Ava the food look wonderful today, as a mother myself I LOVE us

  8. That was lovely 🙂 I always love the cooking of the Italian Mammas. It is the real thing for me- and also maybe the street food. Also I admire Eva' courage to eat that type of pasta in a white blouse :). And I have not watched your videos for a while now, and I know I am always picky about Eva's moods and expressions (sorry for that, cannot help myself) and today I saw her so happy and relaxed that I had to smile 🙂

  9. How are you not 400 lbs?? I put on weight just watchin your vids. Also do you buy salt in bulk and what type when you are adding to the water for pasta?

  10. My second generation Italian American wife can't match her mother's cooking. I miss my mother-in-law not only did she cook fantastically she also catered to me having the drinks that I preferred, cooking my favorite dishes and yelling at her daughter, my wife, that she should learn to do things better! I loved her spicy cauliflower dish almost a casserole but much much more. Don't get me wrong my wife is a good cook as are her 3 brothers, but they can't come close to her skill and enthusiasm.

  11. That's crazy, just the other day I was thinking about cooking chickpeas in an Italian style tomato sauce (as opposed to something like chana masala, Indian chickpea curry) but didn't know if that sort of thing even existed, and then today I click this video, and lo and behold

  12. The tripa looks like Menudo! My mind can't comprehend how this will taste with tomato sauce.

  13. Sono fiera di te, di parlare in dialetto con tua Mamma, siete grande! I live in Boston, born in Italia (Irpinia). Parlo Avellinese con tutta la mia famiglia ❤ Absolutely love you two ❤ ricette eccezionale!

  14. My mother's family comes from Cassano al' Ionio, so everything she made was delicious!!!!
