Menu detail
Its about the "Whys" not the "Hows"
Understanding the why's and how's of a recipe are far more important than a list of amounts and ingredients. A recipe is merely a road map, passed from one cook to the next. What makes a recipe special is the personal touch that each cook imprints on it to make it their own. Having the knowledge of "why" you do something, instead of just reading a recipe card will give you the confidence and skills to carve your own path in the kitchen.
At the end of the lesson, you will feel confident enough to take this recipe and put your own touches on it, truly making it your own.
Egg-Yolk Pasta Dough
Egg-Yolk Pasta Dough
It can be argued that it is the dough that makes or breaks the pasta. One of the secrets to shaping agnolotti is having the perfect dough.
Chef Joe has a different dough recipe for every occasion, here he will demonstrate and share his favorite recipe for agnolotti dough, and what makes it special.
Not everyone has the time (or energy) to knead dough the old-fashioned way, by hand, - instead learn a few modern shortcuts and adjustments for how-to let your stand-mixer do all the work for you. This lesson is for all skill-levels, and will be using a KitchenAid stand mixer, the pasta sheeter attachment, and some basic cutting tools. (However, do not worry, Joe will go over good substitutions for all of the tools and equipment throughout the demonstration).
Classic "Braised" Filling
Agnolotti is a type of pasta typical of the Piedmont region of Italy, made with small pieces of flattened pasta dough, folded over a filling of roasted meat or vegetables.
There are just as many variations of agnolotti filling as there are nonnas in Italy - however, Chef Joe firmly believes that understanding a technique, rather than a specific recipe will give you the skills and confidence to make a delicious and succulent pasta filling with whatever meat or vegetables you happen to have available.
(Vegetarian option available upon request)
Agnolotti
Del Plin or Dal Plin?
The name comes from the regional dialect for “of the pinch” or “from the punch,” which is how you make the pasta. To form each agnolotto (singular for agnolotti), you pinch two sheets of pasta together to create the small pouches.
The secrets are all in the technique. Chef Joe will share his expertise to forming and shaping the perfect agnolotti.
