    The shapes I make in this video:
    SUCAREDDI (also known as PICI in Tuscany) -- basically a fat spaghetti
    MALLOREDDUS -- textured from rolling on a fork
    ORECCHIETTE -- small circular cups; "little ears"
    The water/flour quantities I used for the doughs in this video:
    -300 grams semola (durum wheat) flour, 150 grams water, 1 teaspoon turmeric
    -200 grams semola (durum wheat) flour, ~70 grams water
    Notes:
    -orecchiette wants a drier dough for shaping
    -if you use all-purpose flour, remember that is absorbs MUCH more water, so you'll definitely need to adjust (try to get your hands on some durum wheat flour!)
    -the birch wood board I use to work the pasta on is called, in Italian, "lo spianatoio"

    "Fresh pasta is just a different beast". I grew up with fresh (homemade) pasta made with family wheat, ground in the village mill, and made by my grandmother ... I had a moment of emotion (which really comes to me every time I see a package of spaghetti Number 5 in the supermarket).
    However, the orecchiette were aesthetically ugly but absolutely functional for the purpose (and very good I suppose), Brava!

    "Cucina povera" (i.e. poor cuisine) is the authentic everyday italian food.
    Cucina povera means also incredibly good desserts.
    Just like one of the traditional cakes of my region: the "paciarela".

    Complimenti Katie per la tua pasta, mi permetto di darti due consigli:
    - per una questione igienica è meglio togliersi gli anelli quando si impasta.
    Quindi: si tolgono gli anelli, ci si lava le mani, poi si inizia a lavorare.
    - per utilizzare meglio la forza di tutto il corpo e non solo le spalle/braccia, è meglio impastare stando in piedi.....alternando le due mani. Prova la nuova posizione e vedrai quanta forza svilupperai in più ( = meno fatica).
    Ciao e ancora complimenti!

    please, please, make a video about gnocchi di patate, a fresh pasta made with flour, eggs and potatoes really popular here in verona. it usually goes with 3 sauces: ragù di carne (meat sauce), pomodoro, burro e salvia (butter and sage). this pasta is tipical of Carnival here, we eat it in friday, Venerdì Gnocolar. i know you're in puglia, so it's not tipical there, but if you try it you will like it ;)

    Hi, may I leave you a bit of advice? When you make pasta, you should be standing while kneading. In this way you may use your own weight and the shoulders to knead energetically. When I make egg pasta (I am from Emilia region) I knead for about 15 minutes, until the dough is elastic. If I press a finger on it, the fingerprints bounce back.

    • @TheQKatie
      @TheQKatie  3 роки тому +2

      Haha I definitely learned this on my own when I turned the camera off to finish kneading and realized it was SO MUCH easier standing up than sitting down. I felt silly. Thanks for watching and thanks for sharing!
