Best 4 Torta Di Pasta Recipes

RICOTTA TART: TORTA DI RICOTTA

Steps:

• For the pasta frolla: Combine sugar, butter, egg, milk, baking powder and salt in a large bowl and mix well. Fold in the flour but do not over mix; make sure that the mixture remains cool and does not become pasty. Shape into a disk, wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 30 to 60 minutes, or until firm.
• For the Ricotta Filling: Place the ricotta in a large bowl stir in the sugar, then the eggs one at a time. Add the vanilla being careful not to over mix.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Cut off 1/2 of the pasta frolla and reserve. Roll 1/2 of the dough into a 14-inch disc and line a 9-inch cake pan with it. Allow the dough to hang over the edge of the pan. Roll out the reserved dough into a 10-inch circle. Reserve. Pour the ricotta filling into the crust base. Lay the reserved 10-inch circle of dough on the top of the filling. Trim the excess so there is a 1/2 to 3/4-inch overhang. Take the flap of dough left on the edge of the ring and roll it on itself so that it rests completely within the pan.
• In a small bowl, beat together the egg with a pinch of salt and a few drops of water to make an egg wash. Brush the surface of the torta with the beaten egg mixture. Place the torta in the lower third of the oven and bake for about 45 minutes until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool in the pan. Serve warm, or at room temperature.

THE SWEETEST PASTA YOU'LL EVER EAT RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the dough: In a large bowl, stir together the flour and salt.
• In a medium bowl or liquid measuring cup, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, and eggs.
• Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients, along with ¼ cup (60 ml) cold water. Mix together with a spoon or spatula until well combined. Add more cold water as needed, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough begins to come together.
• Use your hands to knead the dough in the bowl until most floury bits are incorporated. Turn the dough out onto a clean surface and knead for 1-2 minutes, until smooth and supple. Return to the bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rest for 30 minutes.
• While the dough rests, make the filling: Add the almonds and walnuts to a food processor and blend until finely ground. Transfer to a large bowl.
• Add the granulated sugar, cinnamon, and grated chocolate to the bowl with the ground nuts and mix well.
• In a separate large bowl, toss the cooked ziti with the olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, and rum until well coated.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and vanilla until smooth.
• Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to a 24-inch circle, about ¹⁄₁₆-inch thick.
• Lightly grease a 10-inch springform pan with nonstick spray and dust with flour.
• Center the dough over the pan, making sure there is equal overhang on all sides. Press the dough against the bottom and sides of the pan so it lays flush, working gently so the dough doesn't tear.
• Sprinkle about ⅓ of the nut mixture over the dough in an even layer. Top with ½ of the pasta, then another ⅓ of the nut mixture. Dollop 4 tablespoons of softened butter all over the nut mixture. Repeat to make another layer with the remaining pasta, nuts, and butter.
• Pour the beaten egg mixture over everything, making sure it seeps down through the pasta layers. Press down with a spatula to release any air pockets. Fold the overhanging dough over the filling. Brush the top with the melted butter.
• Bake for 70 minutes, until the crust is golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool for 15 minutes.
• Invert the stonska torta onto a cutting board or serving platter. Release the springform, then remove the ring and bottom of the pan.
• Dust powdered sugar on top and garnish with the blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries. Slice and serve.
• Enjoy!

TORTA DI PASTA

Steps:

• Cook the spaghetti in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes. Drain. Toss with the sun-dried tomatoes. Set aside to cool completely otherwise the hot pasta could curdle the eggs when you add them later on.
• In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, salt, and pepper, Parmesan, and fontina to blend. Add the cooled spaghetti mixture; toss to coat.
• Preheat the broiler. Melt the butter and oil in a 9 1/2-inch-diameter nonstick skillet over medium heat. Transfer the spaghetti mixture to the skillet, pressing to form an even layer. Cook until the bottom is golden brown, about 3 minutes. Transfer the skillet to the broiler. Broil until the top is golden brown, about 5 minutes. Cool in the skillet to room temperature.
• Invert the torta onto a platter. Cut into wedges and serve at room temperature.
