Twisting strips between the palms

The regional agriculture sheet describes flour-and-water dough, with optional eggs for a richer version. Cut the sheet into strips, then twist each between the palms.

Fish ragù and artichokes

Try strozzapreti with a fish ragù and artichokes, finished with pecorino, for a regional alternative to a meat sauce.
