FLOUR + WATER LESSON: CHARCOAL AGNOLOTTI ๐๐๐
My submission of my assignment to @foodfutureinstitute:
โI used all-purpose flour as I couldn't find the flours listed out in the recipe. No pasta machine so I rolled everything by hand! No butternut squash either as it wasn't in the grocery PDF list (which I understand has now been updated) so I subbed with orange sweet potato instead. No pastry cutter so I used a pizza cutter. I also have this cake cutter which I tried to use to create the wavy cuts ;) My agnolotti wasn't sealed properly after cutting with the pizza cutter. Can you offer tips on how to make sure it's sealed when cut? Or is it because I didn't have the right equipment and needed a fluted pastry cutter? No sage, so substituted with microgreens. I used a basil butter, hence the green instead.โ
๐Instructor Feedback๐ โFantastic work! Yin, I'm sorry you are having trouble finding all these things for these couple of modules. Working with activated charcoal can be very messy, that's why a good cleanliness in the kitchen is essential! You seem to have done great! Yes, the cutter is important to seal them, but I like to use a little water on my fingertips (just as if I was making dumplings ;), to help with sealing). Despite your challenges the agnolotti look like they remained closed, with just the right amount of filling. Lovely substitution of the sage with the micro greens. What a delight!โ ๐๐๐๐
