🛒 Ingredients (for 4 people)
- 300 g of 00 white flour
- 200 g of chestnut flour
- 4 eggs
- 200 g of butter
- ½ onion
- 1 clove of garlic
- 1 sprig of sage
- Salt to taste
👨🍳 Preparation
1️⃣ Prepare the dough
Sift the two flours and mix them on a pastry board, creating the classic well. In the center, pour the eggs and a pinch of salt. Start mixing with a fork, adding a few drops of water if necessary. Then work the dough with your hands until you obtain a homogeneous, firm but elastic paste.
Wrap it in cling film and let it rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
2️⃣ Roll out the dough and create the tagliatelle
Roll out the dough with a rolling pin to a thin thickness. Cut into tagliatelle about 1 cm wide.
3️⃣ Cook the pasta
Bring plenty of salted water to a boil and cook the tagliatelle for about 10 minutes, draining them al dente.
4️⃣ Prepare the sauce
In a pan, melt the butter and sauté the chopped onion, crushed garlic, and sage until golden.
5️⃣ Toss and serve
Season the tagliatelle with the flavored butter, mix well and serve immediately, nice and hot. 😋
