Twisted Cavatelli (my version)
Ingredients - serves 4
Sift flours
together and form a mound. Make a well in the middle and pour ½ cup of warm salted
water. At first use a fork to combine and then use your hands until the dough
begins to form. Add water by the tablespoon until dough comes together and knead
for about 10 minutes until soft and
elastic. Form a ball and let set for about half an hour, covered with a
kitchen cloth. Divide the dough into 4 pieces and roll each piece to ½ inch thick
rope, working from the center to the edges to maintain an even thickness. Cut
the rope into ¼ inch wide pieces and wrap each piece around a knitting needle
until it slightly curls.
For this version of "cavatelli" I twisted the dough a few times around the knitting needle. Arrange on a floured tray and leave to dry. Cooking
pasta takes only a few minutes.
