I've had several old Italian ladies give me cooking lessons. It was amusing seeing the split. I'd say 50% were like the comic, it's tradition, gotta do exactly as done. The other 50% went with it's food, as long as it's nourishing and brings people together you're doing it right, do it how you want.
The funny thing, most of those recipes were only solidified in the 1950s.
And most not older than a few generations. But of course great-grandma knew better what i should eat, despite her vastly different circumstances, how dare you.
