Agnolotti di Ricotta e Spinaci CDKitchen https://www.cdkitchen.com Serves/Makes: 6 | Ready In: 1-2 hrs
Ingredients: 1 pound flour 6 ounces sweet cream butter 8 eggs 3 pinches salt, to taste 15 ounces ricotta cheese, dry as possible 2 ounces spinach, trimmed and washed 13 ounces Parmesan cheese, grated 1 pinch black pepper, to taste 2 pinches nutmeg, to taste 1 quart heavy cream 4 ounces mascarpone cheese 2 pinches white pepper, to taste
Directions: The Dough: Combine the following ingredients: flour, 2 ounces of the sweet butter, 5 of the eggs, and 1 pinch salt. Work the dough long enough to allow the butter to be incorporated inside the dough. Wrap the dough in a towel and let it rest, for at least one hour, inside the refrigerator.
The Filling: Steam the spinach and chop it very fine.
In a bowl, beat together 2 eggs with 7 ounces freshly grated Parmesan cheese, 1 pinch each: salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Add ricotta cheese and mix very well, but not too long. If you mix it too much, the mixture will become liquid.
The Agnolotti: Roll out the dough in a thin layer and brush it with an egg wash (made from 1 egg). With the help of a teaspoon to make a "walnut" shape, place the spoon on the dough and cover it with another layer.
Cut with a round pasta cutter 2 inches in diameter. Stuff the pasta with the filling and cook in boiling water until the agnolotti come to the surface of the boiling water.
The Sauce: Bring heavy cream to a slow boil and add 4 ounces sweet butter, 6 ounces freshly grated Parmesan cheese, mascarpone cheese, 1 pinch of salt, 1 pinch of nutmeg, white pepper. Boil slowly for five minutes, constantly stirring with a wooden spoon.
Serve agnolotti on warm plates with warm sauce.
