Pastai Gnocchi e Paste Corte
Pastai's fresh potato gnocchi and short fresh pasta: orecchiette, cavatelli, strozzapreti, foglie d'ulivo and trofie.
Pastai Gnocchi e Paste Corte is Pastai's line of fresh gnocchi and short fresh pasta. It combines potato dumplings from northern Italian cooking with short shapes from the south and from Liguria.
The gnocchi come in the P17 size and the smaller "Mignon". According to the official page, they contain potato purée (80%) made from water and potato flakes, wheat flour, potato starch, salt, natural flavouring and rice flour. Potato is thus the base, and flour only binds the dough.
The short pasta includes Apulian orecchiette, cavatelli and strozzapreti, foglie d'ulivo, pasta shaped like olive leaves, and trofie, a twisted pasta from Liguria. The website does not list the ingredients of these products, so none are given here.
Fresh gnocchi cook very quickly, until they float, and are served with tomato sauce, butter and sage, pesto or cheese sauces. Orecchiette are traditionally cooked with vegetables such as turnip tops, and trofie with pesto. The line belongs to the gnocchi and spätzle and fresh pasta categories.
