De Cecco Anellini n.71 (500g)

Product Information

It is often served with hearty sauces and vegetables because the shape of the pasta helps hold the sauce and ingredients together.

According to tradition, ribollita was prepared on Fridays with all the leftover vegetables of the week cooked together with stale bread. Like several other Sicilian baked pasta recipes, this dish is made with a meat ragu with peas, eggplant and hardboiled eggs.Anelli pasta is usually made from durum wheat flour and water and can be either white or whole grain. The name Tripolini actually derives from the Libyan city Tripoli which was the capital of the Italian colony Italian Tripolitania from 1911 to 1947. Nowadays, these dishes are still an important part of Tuscan cuisine but by choice instead of by economy.

Pasta anelli is a type of Italian short pasta that is shaped like a ring or a small hoop measuring about 3-4 cm.In Palermo, baked anelletti can be found in most restaurants and eateries, from fast food establishments to the bars with delis. The filling starts with lean beef that is simmered with onions, celery, and carrots for an entire day.

For an easier version of this dish which resembles my Sicilian pasta al forno recipe, cut the eggplant into cubes and bake until golden. To view the purposes they believe they have legitimate interest for, or to object to this data processing use the vendor list link below.

Cup your hand into a "c" shape and use the heel side to gently press around the filling, sealing the dough and removing any air pockets. Unfortunately, they are a necessary evil which allow me to make an income from my blog and cover my costs. Of course, you can also opt to bake your anelletti with meat ragu in a regular casserole dish without the eggplant crust. I’ve not tried the US version so am not sure if the flavours are the same, but hopefully they are pretty similar! Whether you’re a professional chef or a home cook looking to try a new kind of pasta, pasta anelli is a true Italian choice that’s sure to impress.
