The other day on my instagram feed I got surprised by a beautiful pasta. The art of plating<\/a> IG feed had this “handkerchief pasta” picture of flowers rolled between two layers of lasagna. The result was for sure beautiful. And since it’s been some time I didn’t roll pasta it was a good time to try. Though fresh flowers surely make a very colorful and elegant plate, usually I find that the flavor is very thin or inexistant, except for chrysanthemums and a few other few flowers. So I wasn’t going to try flowers. Rather leaves. Indeed, I had a bit of jute mallow and I was thinking of making lasagna or cannelloni. I opted for cannelloni as I could use different filling for mine and A.’s. The filling for A’s was jute mallow and grilled salmon, mine had an addition of cream cheese.<\/p>\n

But let’s get back to this handkerchief pasta… it all starts like a normal pasta or lasagna, that I rolled with my mercato to the thinest level: 9. I washed the jute mallow, removed the hardest and thickest parts, then set the leaves on on a piece of lasagna, cover with another one and roll two size thicker: 7. The result is quite interesting! The leaves rolled in the pasta machine and trapped between the lasagna extend significantly! The result was really nice, but I made a few mistakes:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. I rolled the pasta too thin, 8 would have been better, to have a stronger pasta<\/li>\n
  2. Rolling 3 size down rather than 2 would have avoid to stretch the leaves so much and to have the pasta cut along the hardest parts of the leaves.<\/li>\n
  3. Put a lot more leaves, and much smaller ones.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
  4. Otherwise it was quite easy and straightforward to make and the result was really beautiful. I think the lasagna would have been a better choice in the end.<\/li>\n
  5. Jute mallow and salmon, dressed with olive oil was a great combo!!<\/li>\n
  6. I’ll try again for sure rolling lasagna with decorations!!<\/li>\n
    Close up on the leaves enclosed in the pasta, and the cut from rolling to thin…<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
