giada de laurentiis: tomato sauce

[krissstAyy]

She seems so depressed compared to her normal smiley self.

[mrsruthie2010]

Giada really makes everything so complicated, I'd rather watch Paula Dean or Sunny Anderson. Plus Giada makes everything dietary. Ugh...

[SpoonFeedNo6]

hey guys look for a nice firm head

[boingokky]

Carrots and Celery in Tomato sauce?! Am I nuts? That doesn't sound very 'authentic.' Someone who IS a culinary artist, with an Italian background, please verify for me. Thanks.

[illman8876]

@boingokky Its authentic for more northern styles of italian cooking.

[boingokky]

@illman8876 See, I am oblivious to authentic Italian cooking, so this is very new to me!!

[alex44996]

The head-to-body ratio is a bit wrong here

[flinhh]

questa di italiano ha solo il cognome

[silvershields]

a little bit of evoo????

is she really explaining how to peel and onion????

[craig9843]

@silvershields evoo= extra virgin olive oil

[threekitcheneers]

We love you Giada!!

[yleni89]

in Italy we don't do the sauce that way.... !!!

[mrkrulez]

Why dafaq she call it a simple tomato souce if had all this other ingredients?

[1spoon1fork]

@mrkrulez that is a simple as it gets, if you think that is complicated you need to stay out of the kitchen

[mrkrulez]

@1spoon1fork it's not complicated at all its just sh*t, i'm italian and when i make a simple tomato souce is f*cking simple.

[1spoon1fork]

@mrkrulez You are not making sense, are you saying her sauce is not simple?

[alienboyguitar]

@mrkrulez i agree by means SIMPLE, just tomatoes, basil, garlic, olive oil, salt & pepper will do the trick... and I'm not Italian :D

[underpedz818]

did you know that those San Marzano tomatoes in the video are a fraud???

[underpedz818]

I can see why you need sweet onions, since the tomatoes you're using are grown in California soil!!!!!!

[JBLuv311]

Her head looks huge because she is wearing black and its hard to make out her body figure. Also, she has a big head.

[cookwithadam]

Cool video. Just a did a homemade tomato sauce on my show "cook with adam" recently

[mrblueface07]

her head looks big cuz her tits arent out ...

this is very early giada

[mrblueface07]

her head looks big cuz her tits arent out

[Shlomsauce]

Photoshop Disaster brought me here.

[JeninnesChannel]

i didnt know natalie portman had her own cooking show

[dashatters]

maybe shes anorexic. anorexic people always seem to have a gigantic head, cause their body is too gaunt

[Genesislinx]

I always rolled my eyes at people who insulted the size of her head, but whoa! She really does have a huge head. LOL. Oh, well, she's beautiful so whatever...

[bfnfamily]

@GenesisLinx

She's a bobble head, but I use to watch her show awhile back : )

[GtForLife123]

I still don't know how to boil water

[bfnfamily]

@GtForLife123

lol



[theelfman]

@Ruubikon hahaha. Stop it its too much. But damn she has a nice rack

[Xheythere63X]

When she said "tight firm head"....that always starts my fantasies....

[dawgindacrib]

wow this is better than porn, no wait it is porn

[Porly62]

Needs more meat....

[cheeks1004]

a cook with painted finger nails... that's just not right

[VizzyJizzyChizzy]

Anyone else notice how her show's music sounds like porn music? I mean, I'm not complaining.... it adds to it....me jerkin off.

[slickcross]

@VizzyJizzyChizzy lol so true

[nyczumazooma]

She's soooo hawt! Can you believe her child can say SHE is her mother? Little miracles, like beer and Giada, that prove G*D loves us!

[snirgens93]

i find this easy to masterbate to

[andina18]

she's an amazing cook

[SharksKid]

Little tip for those of you actually interested in the cooking: stir in some mozzarella cheese or whatever cheese you prefer into the sauce until they melt. Most restaurants do this and it gives the sauce an extra richness.

[kisstopiagroove]

I don't like this vid. When you say from scratch, it should be from scratch which means using fresh tomatoes. Not tomatoes from a can.

[goldseth]

@kisstopiagroove As an ex-chef, tomatoes are one of the few things that are excellent canned...most great Italian restaurants will use quality canned tomatoes with no reservations. Canned tomatoes are also canned at height of ripening....good luck finding store 'fresh' tomatoes like that!

Fresh tomatoes are great of course, but the blanching and peeling is a PITA for the slight difference in taste/quality.

[kisstopiagroove]

@goldseth If anything is from scratch, it's made with fresh ingredients. I don't need a chef to tell me that and I'm not trying to replicate whatever "great restaurants" do in their kitchens. In my kitchen, I cook fresh and I eat fresh. I don't use anything in a can packed with salt and preservatives. Thanks for the good luck wishes, I did find a good video of Donatella Arpaia.

[goldseth]

@kisstopiagroove

A little defensive eh? (hiss)

[FindingFino21]

@kisstopiagroove I know what you mean- but the canned tomato sauce that Giada used in this video is made from the best tomatoes in the world- San Marzano Tomatoes found only in Naples, Italy...the only way you can get them is to order them online from Italy...she could have cut up Roma tomatoes and made it from scratch, but you really can't beat San Marzano tomatoes : )

[kisstopiagroove]

@FindingFino21 But why would she do a video using these canned tomatoes that a person would have to order online? If I am looking to make it tonight, waiting to receive canned tomatoes in the mail isn't realistic. Never mind, it's for those who are willing to use canned tomatoes from Italy. I get it.

[sarabehr]

@kisstopiagroove You can make this recipe with any canned tomatoes. She just happens to buy hers from Italy or an italian grocer.

[vissi87]

@kisstopiagroove You should be able to buy tinned San Marzano tomatoes anywhere in the world. I am from Australia and most of our supermarkets stock them. I understand where you are coming from, but they really are amazing and don't deserve the stigma that is attached to other (highly processed and full of preservatives) tinned foods. Give them a go if you can find them :)

[JimmyChiffels]

@vissi87 can't find them in Canada... only in italian markets in downtown and they sell them for like 5 dollars a can that has 500ml of it

[eddieyyy3]

"It's crunchy, it's earthy, it's lemony, it's creamy, it's crispy, it's peppery." lmao

i love giada.

[edgajam]

Giada de Laurentits.

[Garrador]

0:15 i'm fine with it, but why do they have to set such an erotic ambience?

[ViciousQQ]

WHY IS HER HEAD SO BIG

[GGaRRTURBIT]

Пиздец, почему наша Высоцкая не такая как эта?

[fanaticastype]

my cock has a tight firm head, its nick name is garlic

[vailankannirodrigues]

Ha ! I love that " vegetables start to sweat " lol

[TheLizzifer]

Wow. She was so much less annoying back then.

[SuperMageo]

Ahh yeah, dice the Shit out of that onion..

[howe92]

watching her cut that onion drives me wild

[hellodolly1233]

Only a corporate sellout who gives nothing about what she is saying would make this sauce and call it Italian. She even calls the trinity vegetables a mirepoix! FRENCH.

Whatever pays the bucks, right Giada?

[VirginiaBeachNative]

First I cut my onions vertically, then I call 911 !!

[badassredskin]

spageeeeeteeee!

[SethHesio]

Has she got a really small body, or a gigantic head? She's weirdly out of proportion.

[ProfitofWar]

@SethHesio

[ProfitofWar]

@SethHesio She has a head? Didn't notice...

[inka9]

@SethHesio But, do you love her Seth? Do you? Do you love her?

[SethHesio]

@inka9 Erm... I'd have to say probably no? lol You? Do you love her? Do you? Do you Inka9?

[mspinkcooch]

@SethHesio LMFAO! my brother and I were just saying that. And then i read your comment, I laughed so hard. Ahhh im going to hell.

[SethHesio]

@mspinkcooch Ba ha ha. Happy to be of service! :)

[rmathew2]

She actually owns a top that covers all her cleavage, shocking and disappointing.

[Smiley9613]

@2groomer well carrots are often put In ragu to make sauce sweeter and sometimes aswell as celery... Often when your going to use the sauce for something other than pasta though:)

[threefive00]

IM JAHDAH. LETS ZEST LEMONS.

[hersheybar11]

its funny how all the ppl making fun of her head are women! 

[andyjay203]

my wife

[moneyman10k]

its appropriate this bitch is on camera opening up fake tomatoes

[mctapout187]

lets cook your tits and dip em in some tomato sauce, make me a ham sammich and some fired chicken!

[RobotTed]

Canned tomatoes? What the hell Gia? Crush some fresh ones!

[2groomer]

Giada, celery and carrots in spaghetti sauce? what part of Italia are you from? Really surprised you would use celery and carrots. Thats an american way of cooking.

[headbanginball]

tight firm head...nice white color....sounds like me

[italiana40]

GIADA IS NOT ITALIAN SHE IS AMERIKAN NO CARROTS OR CELERY GO IN ORIGINAL ITALIAN SAUCE GIADA SEI AMERICANAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[italiana40]

GIADA NOT  ITALIAN SORRY SHE IS AMERIKAN

[abdalle86]

at first you say it gonna take less than 30 min then at the last you say let it cook for an hour. that is contradiction but thanx anyway

[cucmberflower]

she has a big head for her tiny body

[willylagos]

hahah south park was right

[rickcee]

This is not good, Giada. And by the way, I'm pretty sure those are not real San Marzano tomatoes. S.M tomatoes have to have the stamp on the side of the can that states that they're from the region. There are so many companies selling what they claim to be SMT's but they're not genuine. Also, a domestic tomato grown from SMT seeds is not actually an SMT because the real thing must grow in that ancient volcanic soil. All the difference in the world. Way too many carrots and please no celery.

[gnevzmaja]

Hell's Kitchen Nightmares Iron Top Chef Cafeteria throwdown ultimate cookoff challenge

[cyberlord64]

damn! a hot woman that can cook! i thought the womanus cookus spieces went extinct several decades ago!

Just kidding :P

[taterfamine]

goddamn he's got a big fuckin head man

[southchum101]

she has a wide jaw line, it's distracting...but i like her cooking...

[za1pp]

She looks like a bobble Head lmao but so hot

[Marice91]

You shouldn't use canned foods for something you're gonna make "from scratch".

[Rendse]

"Giada de Laurentiis with her perky tats and gigantic head"

[disgrl4]

@Rendse Hahahaha, SOUTH PARK!! :-) I lol'ed at it.

[chrissiemoda]

@Rendse gotta love south park

[nls8520]

@Rendse Funny stuff, had me laughing my ass off.

[SASJKL]

@Rendse i was watching that and i needed to know who had the perky tats haha.

[googo151]

@Rendse Still love her and think she's a sexy deliciosa cook!

[N6600]

@Rendse agree with you here, but regarding the giant head, i reckon it's because of the camera lens used, and not necessarily her head. Maybe they used a wide angle lens to film this to show more of the kitchen along with her. Wide lenses tend to make peoples' heads look strangely big, especially when used at close range.

[Rendse]

@N6600 guess that also explains the perky tats

[N6600]

@Rendse probably.

[cmfish7789]

@Rendse lol south park :D

[cromerbeach]

@Rendse with very short arms and at least 200 teeth

[EricBarbman]

This is madness. Her sauce is a parody of what it should be and how it should be made. Where's the wine, where are all the spices; where are the meats, why are her vegetable dices so gross, where are THE FRESH TOMATOES... ?!?

I can assure you she's an impostor.

[turtles12]

@EricBarbman

never use fresh tomatoes with sauce, regardless her recipe is gross though

[illuminatioracle]

why does she look like she's in a porn scene when talking about the tomato sauce?

[WWPSdvia]

True..id rather have a short Italian beautiful woman like Giada that cooks heavenly..than a long legged hot blond Swedish bitch with silicone that likes to watch desperate housewives of New Jersey and look at herself in the mirror every 30 mins.

[joshuarayborn]

The hottest chick I ever seen...

[opmike343]

I always find it strange that people add the horizontal cuts when dicing the onion. It's not necessary, due to the way onions are layered. The vertical cuts are just fine.

[htown1397]

hahahah she said "tight firm head"

[Tampaslice]

Perfect woman, perfect wife. Her husband is GOD as far as I'm concerned! What a fortunate bastard to have such a perfect woman in his life! No breast implants, she kept her horn the way it's always been. Giada has no equal...she's the perfect woman!

[MissLeigh78]

@Tampaslice Her horn?

[disgrl4]

@Tampaslice And yet, she's cheating on him with John Mayer. Yep. Really a perfect woman.

[UAEgirl134]

She cant stop opening her mouth widely while talking can she? She makes me sick

[UAEgirl134]

She cant stop opening her mouth widely while ta

[tubebitch12]

This must be prehistoric Giada,she looks homely here and no cleavage!

[ckmc123]

She doesn't look like she eats any of the food she cooks. That's why her head looks so big....she's starving herself!!!

[Zestybeef]

I don't know about tomato sauce, but Giada helps me make man-butter sauce

[Albertoskitchen]

Soffritto in a tomato sauce? Not in a million years. Carrots and bay leaves are for sautéeing meat for ragu' not for the basic sauce. There are 3 ways to make a tomato sauce here in Italy and none of them involves canned food. #1 is the original sauce from 'Artusi' #2 is the modern version where e.v. olive oil is added after the sauce has gone through a foodmill and has been reduced #3 is the tomato fillet sauce with just garlic, oil and basil.

[wovokanarchy]

Tomato sauce isn't Italian. Tomatos were grown and cooked by American Indians for thousands of years before Columbus washed ashore in North AMerica. Tomato sauce was used by the "Red Indians" for a variety of foods. The Italians actually thought the tomato was poisonious due to it's red colour. Just another example of Europeans stealing from the "red man".

[Albertoskitchen]

@wovokanarchy For your info, tomato origins in Mexico and Peru during the Aztec civilisation. It was Hernán Cortés to bring it to europe in 1540 and it was considered poisonous (holistic medicine still does) as most of the solanum plants back then. The color was dark yellow and the taste was kind of acid till ,almost a century later, the Italians could graft what is known as a red tomato.

[thricegod1288]

such a babe!

[newWorldnewHope]

gosh can u believe she's 40. i wish my future wife look like her when she becomes 40

[kkarrasch]

i just made cream sauce

[taterfamine]

@kkarrasch

creme of someyoungguy?

[citizenoftheplanet]

Why does she use San Marzano brand tomatoes and not real Italian imported ones?

[LucLeFou]

are you natalie portman's sister?

[pleasance]

HOLY SHIT HER HEAD IS HUGE!

[dnycguy9]

inconsistent instructions are always a bad sign and with Giada's CIA background and super production team it's not only a surprise but also disappointing: @ 0:35 she says, "in less than 30 minutes you've got sauce," then @ 4:20 she says, "we're gonna let it simmer for an hour."

[imanhardy]

2:19 - 2:28

[HitMeQuick]

She looks like a moving Madame Tussauds waxwork. Well, one that the makers got half way through and thought fuck it we've run out wax for the body, lets just pretend she was in Thunderbirds.

[renuck]

HOLY POOP SHE HAS A BIG HEAD!

[lulo1216]

I just love her... She's hot, can cook and has a great voice... damn i may even learn to cook watching her...

[wretchedspawn118]

@lulo1216 I learned SOMETHING from watching her, but it wasn't how to cook....

[chitownhawks2010chps]

it's really tough to find hot gurl that can cook these day...

[MrFondozziUSA]

No, certainly not gay. I would have a hard time waking up to that fake smile every morning though. Oh man, what am I saying....you only see that smile when the cameras are on. Any other time its bitch face central I bet.

[JDubs878]

Oh yeah do you know that I can make a great Fettuccine white sauce too? All I need is 5 minutes of Giada with her top down. :D

[9aspengold5]

Definitely one of the earliest of her Food Channel video's.

[Paagnio]

@ Hutchbeartrap

She can give me huge strange head anyday brah.

[kyleisreallycool]

I made some alfredo sauce, in my pants

[ff2paladin]

sweet Jesus, her head is like half the total volume of her above-waist body.

[saleen715]

Is something wrong with the video cause her head looks HUGE lolol

[ashinguy]

her knife is not very sharp

[Aliathis]

thats a big ass head!!!! lol

[thecoolestluzer123]

I love Giada. She's not boring, her voice is actually soothing really so..yeah.

[AcrylicChique101]

is tomatoe paste the same as crushed canned tomatoes?

[FM897]

@AcrylicChique101 No. Tomato paste is very thick and condensed. It's a tomato product that is cooked for a long time to make it very concentrated. Tomato paste is just that, a paste. Crushed tomatoes are cooked, whole tomatoes that have been crushed.

[AcrylicChique101]

@FM897

I see.

Thank you!

[airmickey2000]

Do not teach us how to make Tomato sauce. Teach us how to make mayonnaise. Can I toss salad dressing onto your face?

LOL

[motormouthfrenchie]

I love how she explains step-by-step how to peel an onion, so you cant mess it up. I mean, it took me at least 50 tries to get it right.

[naturallyshelley]

This is her really old kitchen!! ;)

[BLUEOHIO]

Shes very beautiful and makes u hungry when she cooks!!

[LightningFistFighter]

@QIFanGirl

You just feel less threatened by Nigella than you do this bombshell.

Typical womans response. No personality. Blah blah blah.

This woman is extremely personalble. Great smile, very bubbly.

Get over yourself.

[LightningFistFighter]

@QIFanGirl

Ah, the old bisexual card. Uh huh.

[FM897]

@LightningFistFighter You're wrong. Giada didn't have nearly as much personality at this time, as she does later in her series. I watched her Food Network chef bio and she even admitted it. As she became more comfortable in front of the camera, she became more personable and bubbly.

[raulpingui]

Gir: Why is her head so big? WHY is her head so big?

xD jk I love guiada, Im doing a Julie&Julia-esqe challenge with her cookbooks (making every dish in the book in a short period of time)

[tmpenders76]

she has a beautiful head. I love watching her cook

[atcliffsendfan2]

who knew Natalie Portman was such an amazing cook

[anthonyhondasi]

yeah, wth her ginormus Head! why do guys keep talking about her boobs, don't they see her HUGE HEAD!

[MrFondozziUSA]

I hate that phoney baloney smile. And I really hate it when she over enunciates every Italian word she says. She is thoroughly annoying.

[amnab828]

@MrFondozziUSA

"ree-coat-ahhh" (ricotta).

UGHHHHH

[MrFondozziUSA]

@amnab828 yeah she is pretty horrifying. The Barefoot Contessa is the worst though. Talk about a phoney. They both make me want to stab myself a dozen times whenever I look at them.

[JDubs878]

@MrFondozziUSA

Wait wait WAIT!! Let me get this straight:

You got an attractive woman that possesses THE MOST EPICALLY PERFECT TITS EVER and you're worried about her being a 'phoney'??!?!!?!!! O_o

Well you're certainly not gay....

[cranky1chick]

She's gotten much more comfortable in front of the camera, but I preferred those recipes to the ones she's doing now.

[stoopifyd]

she has nice tits
