Gallo Placas
Gallo range of dry pasta sheets from Spain for lasagne and cannelloni: oven-ready lasagne sheets, extra-thin cannelloni sheets and egg lasagne sheets.
Gallo Placas is the range of dry pasta sheets from Pastas Gallo for baked dishes. According to the official site the traditional sheets are made from higher-quality wheat chosen to bring out the flavour of the filling. The range has three products: Placas para lasaña «directas al horno», oven-ready lasagne sheets that go into the dish without boiling first; Placas para canelones extrafinas, extra-thin sheets for rolling cannelloni, a favourite festive dish in Catalonia; and Placas para lasaña al huevo, lasagne sheets made with egg. The site divides them into traditional and quicker «instant» sheets.
Lasagne and cannelloni sheets differ mainly in size and shape. The dish is assembled by alternating sheets with filling, sauce and béchamel and finishing with cheese before baking; the maker suggests about two or three sheets per person, depending on the dish.
The range belongs to dry pasta; the egg sheets are also egg pasta. Gallo also makes gluten-free lasagne and cannelloni sheets in its Sin Gluten range.
