What Is Hallmark’s Our Italian Christmas Memories About?

According to the Hallmark synopsis, the Colucci siblings, Anna (Power), RJ (Irving), and Ella (Wyllie) are reunited over the holidays.

Their job is to take care of Vincent (Bridges) their beloved grandfather. However, he has not been well of late.

When they first see their grandfather, they are shocked. He has an early stage of dementia, and it has rapidly progressed.

Therefore, Anna decides this could be a good opportunity to help her grandfather jog his memory. She has decided she wants to learn her grandmother’s legendary pasta sauce recipe. Can Vincent help her remember this?

Anna tries over and over to make the sauce. She knows it is not right. Moreover, Greg (Tarasiuk), Vincent’s doctor, gets close and sparks are flying.

Eventually, Anna asks her two siblings to help her on her quest. Can the three piece together their grandmother’s delicious recipe in time for Christmas?

Despite their mercurial relationship, the trio of siblings learns to heal and to work tougher. While figuring this recipe out, they also figure out how to love and forgive.

  1. What is the name of the recipe they are searching for? I heard it mentioned several times in the trailer, but I have no idea how it is spelled.
