Preparation
-
1.In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt for the pasta dough. Make a well in the center and add the eggs and olive oil. Mix until a dough forms, then knead on a lightly floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes.
-
2.In a separate bowl, combine the ground beef, pork, veal, grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, milk, chopped onion, minced garlic, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
-
3.Roll out the pasta dough on a floured surface until it is thin but not transparent. Using a round cookie cutter or a glass, cut out circles of about 2 inches in diameter.
-
4.Place a small spoonful of the meat filling in the center of each pasta circle. Fold the circle in half to form a half-moon shape and press the edges together to seal. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
-
5.In a large pot, bring the chicken or beef broth to a boil. Add the chopped carrot, celery, onion, minced garlic, bay leaves, and fresh thyme. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Reduce the heat to a simmer.
-
6.Carefully drop the filled pasta pockets into the simmering broth. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, or until the pasta is cooked through and tender.
-
7.Remove the bay leaves and thyme sprig from the broth before serving. Ladle the Anolini in Brodo into bowls, making sure to include some of the flavorful broth. Serve hot and enjoy!
Treat your ingredients with care...
- Ground meat — Use a mixture of beef, pork, and veal for the filling to achieve a well-rounded flavor.
- Parmesan cheese — Grate the Parmesan cheese fresh for the best taste and texture.
- Fresh herbs — Opt for fresh parsley and thyme to enhance the aroma and flavor of the dish.
- Chicken or beef broth — If using store-bought broth, choose a high-quality brand for the best results.
- Pasta dough — Ensure the pasta dough is rolled out thin enough to create delicate pockets, but not too thin to prevent tearing during cooking.
