Word up Food Tubers! Mr Oliver here on a boat in Norfolk Broads in England. I'm with the
one and only Gennaro Contaldo, you are so beautiful to me but not just to me, to Food
Tube as well, there's many women out there, and the men, they also like you. Word up Food
Tubers! Didn't I say it right? Guys we're making some filled pasta. This is not kind
of a recipe formally as we do on Food Tube, it's just a little chat. One of the things
that Gennaro loves, and I love more than anything, is leftovers and today we've got some leftover
poached chicken but it could be roast. You could use any meats, mushed up, some parmesan,
a little taleggio - which is a funky cheese and we're making little, homemade tortellini.
Have you seen Mr Loftus in the house? He'll be taking some pictures of me and Genarro
doing it. So I'll do the first fold. And then I'll do the second. And then I'm gonna pass
over to Gennaro and he's gonna do the second. So press them right down the front, on top,
roll it, grab it to one side, grab the other side, pull it, don't be afraid. There it is,
one is already there. These are what you would call fatto en casa, you know like, it means homemade,
house-made. The fact that you get different shapes and sizes really is part of the beauty
of homemade pasta. When did you first make pasta Gennaro? I was there making pasta the
age of six, five, seven, just water and flour. And the water had to be warm. Is that,
not sounding rude, but is that because you were a bit poorer and you couldn't afford
the eggs? The original must have been like this,yeah. So it was more tradition for
you? It was more traditional; the rich had more money -- "oh why don't I mix it with
a nice egg inside? I'll make more nutrition's. Oh yes, let's do that." And the poor men says,
the south of Italy says, "well I don't have it, I cannot afford it". Look at that, look
how nice Jamie! We really make it nice and we haven't done this for long time. I love
all this. Jamie, everyone around here, look how beautiful. This is a proper family. This
is our second family. Yeah. Normally it's the nonnas and the mammas and all the girls
doing this pasta. What do Italian girls normally talk about when they are making pasta? My
bello was a little bit hmmm last night. Mmm, mmm. Yes it must. Hahahaha. You know we've
known each other for twenty years now Gennaro. And I bless you for that. One of the guys
commented on one of your last videos and said 'Gennaro have you ever cooked in the nude?'
Um yes I have cooked with an apron on with no clothes underneath. It's not true, yes,
but I done it. Not true, yes, you believe me, yes, okay.
Time to cook the beautiful
tortellini. We've got some salted boiling water here. Gonna put some tortellini in.
I believe six of those or seven should be ok Jamie. These tortellini have had about
a minute and a half so now we just go in with a little handful of spring peas and we're
just gonna shock those just for a little minute. So we've got a nice broth here. If you make
it from raw bones you can often get it very, very clear. This is left over poaching liquor
so it's a little bit cloudier but there's nothing wrong with that. Let's have a little taste.
It's good innit? Comfort food. Look at that, absolutely gorgeous. Broth. Just a few bits
of fennel tops or a little basil, it could be a couple of mint leaves, kind of just infuses
it like a cup of tea. It's almost a summer in a plate. I'm gonna take this to David Loftus.
Mmmm. Guys if you like that, like it, feel free to share it on your social media. Any
questions put it in the comments box below for me and Gennaro and don't forget; check
