Servings:

1 Portions

Ingredients:

500 ml of Whole milk
40 g of Tipico IT’s 00 Flour
Black pepper
60 g of Butter
Salt
170 g of Tipico IT's gorgonzola piccante
1 kg of Squash pulp
Tipico IT’s Extra virgin olive oil
Fresh oregano
2 Cloves of garlic
Fine salt
Parsley
250 g of Tipico IT's pasta sfoglia for lasagne
White wine
80 g of Gran Capra
Breadcrumbs
400 g of Tipico IT's salsiccia
250 g of Tipico IT’s Mozzarella

PREPARATION

1

Begin the preparation of lasagne with squash, gorgonzola and salsiccia by starting with the gorgonzola béchamel sauce: sift the flour in order to avoid the formation of lumps.

2

In a small saucepan, heat the milk with a pinch of salt and grind of pepper.

3

In a non-stick saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the flour a little at a time, stirring vigorously with a whisk.

4

Toast the flour over medium heat until it begins to darken and bubble. At this point you can also add the hot milk, always continuing to stir thouroughly and bring everything to boil. After about two minutes from boiling, your béchamel will have thickened.

5

Now, turn off the heat and add the chopped gorgonzola. Let it slowly melt with the heat, stirring constantly with a whisk.

6

As soon as the gorgonzola is completely melted and well blended, transfer the béchamel sauce to a glass bowl and let it cool by covering with plastic wrap.

7

Now, deal with the pumpkin: remove the skin, cut it into slices and then into cubes.

8

In a non-stick pan, brown two cloves of garlic in a little oil. As soon as they start to brown, add the diced pumpkin and season with a pinch of salt. Let it cook, over a gentle flame, covering it with a lid for about 10 minutes, turning it from time to time.

9

Halfway through cooking, add a few leaves of fresh oregano and some chopped parsley. Once ready, transfer it to a bowl and let it cool.

10

Now, deal with the sausage: remove its casing and shred with a knife.

11

In the same pan where you cooked the pumpkin, add a little oil and let it heat up. Then add the sausage, brown it and break it up with a spoon. When the sausage begins to brown, turn up the heat and add a splash of white wine. Let it evaporate and continue cooking until browned. Turn off the heat and set aside.

12

In the meantime, proceed by cutting the mozzarella into small pieces.

13

At this point, you have everything you need to compose your lasagne with squash: cover the bottom of an oven dish with some gorgonzola béchamel sauce. Add the first layer of egg puff pastry for lasagne adding a few spoonsful of diced pumpkin, a little bit of sausage and a little bit of mozzarella. Also add a grind of pepper and a generous sprinkling of Gran Capra.

14

Complete by covering the entire surface with a few spoonsful of Gorgonzola béchamel sauce.

15

Continue in this way for other 3-4 layers.

16

Gently press down on each layer to ensure that the topping and béchamel sauce adhere evenly.

17

Finish by covering the last layer with the squash cubes and add some mozzarella flakes. Cover with the remaining béchamel sauce, a generous sprinkling of Gran Capra and finally some breacrumbs. Glaze the surface with a little oil and bake the lasagne with squash in a preheated oven at 180° C for about 40 minutes.

Luciana’s agnolini in broth

Author: Guido Boschetti

Difficulty:

Advanced

Total time:

330 min

Servings:

1 Portions

Ingredients:

300 g of 0 Flour
4 Eggs
100 g of Pork loin
100 g of Raw ham
Nutmeg
100 g of Chicken gizzard
100 g of Chicken liver
1 Salsiccia
100 g of Pancetta
150 g of Gran Capra
Fine salt
1 White onion
1 Carrot
4 l of Cold water
Cloves
2 Stalks of celery
1/2 Chicken
Sage
Rosemary
Bay

PREPARATION

1

To prepare the Agnolini in broth, start with the filling, which will need a long rest. Cut the ham, pork loin, salsiccia, pancetta, chicken gizzard and liver into pieces. Cook with the various aromatic herbs, such as sage, rosemary, bay leaves, cloves, etc. Cook for three hours, basting occasionally with red wine.

2

Then let the meat mixture cool and and pass it through the meat grinder, using a medium-sized mould and collecting it in a bowl. Add the Gran Capra, salt, pepper and egg to the minced meat. Also add a pinch of grated nutmeg. Mix all the ingredients together by kneading with your hands.

3

Pass through the mincer again, this time using the thinner mould. Press again with your hands, then cover with cling film and refrigerate for 12 hours. When there are about 4 hours left, prepare the meat broth.

4

Peel the onion and cut it in half. Place 3 cloves on each half and place them in a hot pan. Wash the celery and carrot well, then cut them into pieces. Put the chicken in a large pan. Add the celery and carrots. When the onions are golden brown, remove them with a fork and transfer them to the pan.

5

Add water and a pinch of salt. Cook over a medium heat. It will take about 4 hours from boiling. Meanwhile, prepare the egg pasta. Pour the flour onto a pastry board and make a classic fountain shape. Pour in the slightly beaten eggs and start mixing the ingredients with a fork. Knead the dough by hand and continue to knead until a homogeneous dough is obtained. Wrap it in cling film and leave it to rest at room temperature.

6

Check the stock from time to time and skim it off using a skimmer. Take the egg pasta and transfer it to a pastry board. Crush it with your hands to flatten it, then roll it out with a rolling pin to a very thin sheet. Using a pastry cutter, cut out small squares. Place a bit of filling in the centre of each square. Lift one of the squares, close it to form a triangle and press lightly on the edges. Now lower the two side edges, letting them go around your finger. Seal by pinching the two edges of the dough, and the first agnolino is ready. Do the same for all the others and gradually place them on a tray with a tea towel.

7

When the broth is ready, remove the meat and vegetables with a skimmer. Transfer to a bowl. Taste the broth and adjust the salt if necessary. Then strain it, dividing the broth into two pots. Bring one of the two broth pots back to the boil and keep the other one warm. As soon as the broth comes to the boil, immerse the lambs. Wait a few minutes until they come to the surface, then use a skimmer to scoop out a portion of the Agnolini and transfer them to a plate. Add the hot broth, taken from the other pot. To make it clearer. At this point, serve with a good handful of Gran Capra.
