Best Fresh Tagliolini Recipes

TAGLIOLINI CON TARTUFO: TAGLIOLINI WITH TRUFFLES

Steps:

• In a pot, cook the fresh tagliolini in salted boiling water. Approximately 1 minute before the pasta is 'al dente', remove the pasta from the pot and drain, saving some pasta water.
• Melt the butter in a saucepan, and add the drained pasta along with a little pasta water. If the pasta appears to be too dry, add more pasta water. Add the Parmigiano cheese, grated truffles and cook everything together for a minute, so that the sauce thickens. Transfer the pasta to a warm plate and add a sprinkle of truffle shavings.

FRESH TAGLIOLINI

Steps:

• Mound flour on a large surface. Make a well in the center and add the rest of the ingredients. Stir them up, incorporating flour from sides until the dough is the right consistency. Knead the dough a bit. Form it into a ball and cover in plastic to rest for 30 minutes. Roll it out and cut it into .25-inch thick strips. Add to boiling water for 6 to 8 minutes.

FRESH TAGLIERINI PASTA

Steps:

• Make dough:
• Pulse together all ingredients except additional flour in a food processor until mixture just begins to form a ball. Knead dough on a work surface, incorporating additional flour as necessary, until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. Divide dough into 4 pieces and keep each wrapped in plastic wrap until ready to roll out.
• Roll out dough:
• Set smooth rollers of a pasta machine at widest setting. Flatten 1 piece of dough into a rectangle and feed through rollers. Fold in half and feed through rollers 8 or 9 more times to continue kneading, folding in half each time and dusting with flour as necessary to prevent sticking.
• Cut pasta:
• Turn dial to next narrower setting and feed dough through rollers without folding. Continue to feed dough through, without folding, making space between rollers narrower each time until narrowest setting is reached. Halve sheet crosswise and arrange on a dry kitchen towel, letting pasta hang over edge of work surface. Roll out remaining dough in same manner.
• Attach ribbon-pasta cutters to pasta machine and attach handle to 1/8-inch-wide cutter. Line a tray with a dry kitchen towel. Feed first rolled-out pasta sheet, which will have dried slightly but should still be flexible, through cutter and toss with some flour. Form pasta loosely into a nest and arrange on kitchen-towel-lined tray. Make more taglierini with remaining dough. Cover taglierini with plastic wrap until ready to use.
