Enrico Crippa presents his recipe for the famous "Agnolotti al Plin" from the Italian region of Piedmont.

Enrico Crippa

Preparation time: 1 hour 45 minutes

Creative Concept: Florence Wibowo

For the Agnolotti

Ingredients (4 servings)
1 kg "Three types of roast"
200 g Wheat flour smooth W480
200 g Durum wheat semolina
4 Eggs
4 Egg yolk

Preparation

  • Knead a smooth pasta dough from the wheat flour, durum wheat semolina, eggs and egg yolk. Wrap in cling film and leave to rest in a cool place for at least 15 minutes.
  • Chop the roast pieces very finely in a food processor (cutter) or by hand with a knife; add a little gravy if necessary so that the stuffing does not get too dry. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.
  • Roll out the pasta dough into a 10 cm wide sheet by hand or using a pasta machine. Place a teaspoon of the meat filling in the lower third of each strip, 3.5 cm apart. Fold in the mounds of filling by flattening the top edge of the dough with a knife or pastry wheel and then pressing the gaps between the mounds of filling together with two fingers.
  • Now fold the filled half onto the "empty" half of the dough and separate the individual agnolotti with a knife or pastry wheel; this creates pretty little "plin" that resemble a little bag or a belly button.

For the completion

Ingredients (4 servings)
100 g Roast stock
100 g Parsley, chopped

Preparation

  • Bring the stock to the boil in a large casserole dish.
  • Boil the "plin" in salted water, lift out and immediately toss in the gravy.
  • Serve on pre-warmed plates and finish with chopped parsley.

Tip:

The Falstaff wine recommendation

Braida Winery - Bricco Dell' Uccellone
Generous flavor with excellent body and remarkable structure, a perfect combination of the characteristics of the grapes and the contribution of the wood, resulting in a refined suppleness and class, with a very long aromatic persistence.
