Equipment

Ingredients

BAROLO BRAISED BEEF

  • 3 pound beef chuck
  • ⅓ cup olive oil extra virgin
  • 1 cup onion chopped
  • 1 cup celery chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic cloves
  • 750 ml red wine Barolo
  • 3 units cloves
  • 1 sprig thyme
  • 1 spring rosemary
  • 3 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp pepper black, ground
  • 4 tbsp butter
  • ½ cup flour all purpose

AGNOLOTTI

  • 400 gr flour 00
  • 4 unit egg large
  • 6 tbsp Parmesan Cheese finely grated (optional)

Instructions

BAROLO BRAISED BEEF

  • Braise the Beef: Brown vegetables and beef, add wine, herbs, and paste. Simmer 2.5–3 hours until tender. ( for all detailed instructions refer to the Barolo al Brasato recipe)
  • Prepare the Filling: Shred beef finely; stir in some reduced braising juices and cheese. Blend until well combined. The filling has to be moist, but not too soft. Chill. (do this after one day to allow juices in the meat to better distribute. You can also do this with leftover).
  • Make the Dough: Combine flour and eggs; knead and rest. Roll into thin sheets.
  • Shape Agnolotti using the folding and plin technique above.
  • Cook and Serve in boiling salted water, 2–3 minutes, then finish with the reduced braising sauce.
