Apparently, pansotti means something like “big belly” in an Italian dialect, so we’re going to use the Italian term for these shapes, and not the English translation. It just sounds nicer to say that we’re shaping pansotti. And, fortunately for everyone, these are a very simple filled pasta shape to make. We’re pretty sure you can make them based on a single photo.
We will say that we made up a special filling for this pasta, and we’ll post that tomorrow, but, really, you can use any sort of pasta filling you want. We have several listed right here. And, of course, we have our recipe for Basic Pasta Dough, too, which will make about 40 pansotti. With a bit of effort, you can have a nice Italian dinner tonight.
