In breve

The dish in short

  • A filling of veal, pork and rabbit, browned, then cooked covered with carrot, celery and onion, and minced with wilted greens, egg and Parmigiano.
  • Egg pasta, 100 g of flour to each egg, rolled thin and filled at once, before it hardens.
  • The plin is the pinch: small balls of filling, the sheet folded over them and pinched at their sides, then cut into pouches about 2 cm long.
  • Cooked in salted water until they float, and dressed with the vegetables and juices the meat cooked in, blended smooth.
