Best Passatelli Cheese Pasta Dough Recipes

PASSATELLI (CHEESE PASTA DOUGH)

Steps:

• 1. Mix the cheese and breadcrumbs together in a large bowl.
• 2. Then add in the eggs and mix well to form a very wet dough.
• 3. Bring the chicken broth to a simmer in a large pot.
• 4. Line 2 cookie sheets with waxed paper.
• 5. Form the dough into 3 equal balls and pass each dough ball, seperately, through a potato ricer with the large hole attachment, onto the lined cookie sheets, as in my photo. Or you can just pass the dough through the ricer, placed over the simmering broth. That way it goes directly into the broth.
• 6. Cook for about 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley. Serve warm.

PASSATELLI

Steps:

• In a bowl, whisk together the bread crumbs, cheese, pepper, nutmeg and 1/2 teaspoon salt. In another bowl, whisk the eggs, then stir them into the crumb mixture until just combined. Set aside.
• In a deep, wide soup pot, bring the broth just to a simmer and season with salt. Pass the dough through a potato ricer or passatelli maker into the broth and cook 1 minute. Ladle into bowls.

Steps:

• Place the bread crumbs, Parmesan, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt in a large mixing bowl. Add the eggs and carefully mix together with your hands until it forms a soft dough-like consistency. Allow the dough to rest for approximately 20 minutes in a cool place. Once ready, place through a potato ricer to create short noodle-style pasta shapes.
• Bring the chicken stock to a boil. Add the pasta to the chicken stock. Once the passatelli have risen to the surface, they are ready to eat. Serve with a fresh tomato and basil sauce

PASSATELLI DEI NONNI (BREAD AND PARMESAN CHEESE SOUP)

Steps:

• Place the bread crumbs, Parmesan, nutmeg and the lemon zest in a large mixing bowl. Add the eggs and carefully mix together with your hands until it forms a soft dough-like consistency.
• The mixture should be like a wet dough, barely holding together.
• If it seems too stiff, add 1 tablespoon water or stock. If it's too soft, add more breadcrumbs and Parmesan.
• Allow the dough to rest for approximately 20 minutes in a cool place.
• Once ready, put the dough in a food mill or ricer. Press to create short noodles (like little worms).
• Bring the meat stock to a boil and add the pasta. Once the passatelli have risen to the surface, they are ready to eat.
• Serve immediately.

PASSATELLI

Steps:

• Beat eggs, lemon zest, salt, and nutmeg with an electric blender until foamy. Add Grana Padano cheese and bread crumbs and mix with your hands into an compact, yet soft dough. Cover and allow dough to rest in a cool place for at least 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring chicken broth to a boil in a large pot over high heat.
• Use a potato ricer to mash dough directly into the broth, forming small "snakes" about 2 to 3 inches in length. Use a sharp knife to cut passatelli directly from the bottom of the potato ricer so they drop into the water. Cook until passatelli float to the surface, about 5 minutes. Immediately scoop them out with a slotted spoon and drain.
• Transfer passatelli to soup bowls and serve with hot chicken broth.
