At the table
For Emilia-Romagna’s passatelli, combine grated stale bread with Parmigiano, eggs and spices before cooking in broth. Use breadcrumbs to complete the coating of the protected stuffed Oliva Ascolana del Piceno.
Match the bread and texture to the recipe rather than assuming a seasoned coating mix will work in a pasta dough.
