How to Make Hand Rolled Trofie with Pesto & Beans | Pasta Grannies

  • Trofie are small spiralled pasta from Liguria. And Rosetta is among a group of women keeping the tradition of hand rolled trofie alive.
    Rosetta adds a fresh cheese called 'prescinsêua' to her pesto - as do the friends with her - and this has a tangy live yoghurt taste with a consistency similar to a ricotta.
    Big thanks to Paolo from Pastificio Novella in Sori who introduced Rosetta.

    This is my childhood! My great-grandma used make these every single time we went to visit. Sometimes she even added fagiolini (green beans) to the pesto. Even my sister, the pickiest eater, always cleared her plate.

    I just tried to make these and these trofie are easily the hardest pasta shape I've tried so far. I was able to get a consistent shape out of orrechiette after a couple of tries, these are a different beast. Her spirals look so elegant. Obviously. She's been doing this for literally decades.

    I made it today! I already had pesto in the freezer so just added some yogurt and a splash of cream, and some bits of leftover ham from Easter dinner. I am right handed but found the technique to make the pasta was easier with my left hand. I really like this no eggs pasta. I bit like Steozzapreti from Naples, both are just flour and water. The 00 flour worked very well in this recipe.

    It's interesting, I think, that Rosetta makes her pesto: no bashing in a pestle and mortar; get the job done and eat:-)

    Vicky, i do like italian green beans, but i must say, i wish i could get to you 2 of the best green beans you will ever eat, and are grown in Kentucky, and some other southern states in the U.S., they are called white half runners and greasy beans(some folks call the 2nd one greasy grit beans) they are delicious, but take 2 - 2 1/2 hours to simmer, that is the only downside, but they are unbelievably good

    she's a pro! I used Helen Rennie's technique and it worked for me. Not as fast but it came out really good on first try. The Pasta Grannys book's ratio for the dough didn't work and I had to add more water to adjust. I used King Arthur all purpose and not 00 flour.

    Can I make this pasta with durum wheat semolina flour? Or will it be too hard to twirl. I heard trofie are made with semolina.

    • @pastagrannies
      @pastagrannies  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Industrially made dried pasta has to use semolina flour by law in Italy - so the packets of trofie you buy will be made with this flour. Trofie are from Liguria where hard wheat flour isn't grown, so the handmade pasta is made with ordinary flour. best wishes, Vicky

      jules short well I do add extra cheese on trofie and a lot of us genovese people do.. I assure you 😅

    • @T0pMan15
      @T0pMan15 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      In my opinion if pasta water is seasoned well enough you do not need to add extra cheese. People forget that cheese is salty, so by adding more (depending how you’ve cooked the dish), you’re probably over salting it

    • @Ardoxsho
      @Ardoxsho 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm from Genoa and I can confirm: don't add cheese to pesto, it'll alter the subtle balance of the cheese-basil mix that pesto consists of. I can also confirm that some locals do it nonetheless. But the grannies will tell you not to.

    • @giulz8
      @giulz8 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      The apron is advertisement I think. Novella is the name of a factory that makes trofie and pesto and loads of other almost like homemade pasta and sauce, in Sori. I was born and lived in genova for most of my life and can say that when genovese people cannot make pesto or pasta on their own, they would buy a Novella one.

    • @pastagrannies
      @pastagrannies  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The trofie dough is easy to make; trofie themselves are tricky! The dough is especially soft and stretchy to help with the twisting, so I'd recommend using it. I haven't tried making trofie with an egg pasta dough, and I reckon you wouldn't get such a tight twirl - I wonder if there are cooks out there who have tried? best wishes, Vicky

      "Womanly baton"? You mean staying in the kitchen and cooking all the food for the men? Nice definition of "womanly" ya got there. Like you guys are somehow incapable of making your own food. Also, it's the dudes who put so much pressure on women to be thin and pretty, so if you don't like the whole makeup and diets thing, might wanna turn that criticism inward a bit, sparky.
