Pasta Grannies discovers tortelli alla lastra from Tuscany

Double carb deliciousness in this episode, where Laura shows us how to make a type of potato filled flatbread using a pasta dough. The tortelli alla lastra are so called because lastra is a large thick slate roof tile, which is heated over a fire and the tortelli are then cooked on it. Laura tells me this is an ancient recipe which has been revived.
Corezzo is 750m up in the Appenine mountains, if you are hiking in the area, then visit Osteria dala Franca to try this tortelli and excellent pizza.

I LOVE this channel! Discovered it only a week ago and have watched an almost unhealthy number of videos so far! :D Keep up the great work!

[@pastagrannies]

that's good to hear 😊🌺 best wishes, Vicky

[@smamat79]

This is one of the most unique pasta dishes shared on this channel. And also this nonna is one of a kind. She is very technical and shares plenty of clever tips and nifty bits of sleight of hand. Meraviglioso. Thanks, Vicky et al.!!

[@luanllluan]

indeed!!!!

[@andreasanerip4092]

No sul do Brasil, onde há um grande número de descendentes de italianos, Tortelli é uma pasta como um ravioli com recheio de abóbora, que também pode ter nozes e queijo parmesano. É cozido em água quente e o modo mais comum de servi-lo é com um molho de manteiga e sálvia. É muito, muito, muito saboroso, apesar de não se parecer com o que foi apresentado aqui.

a tip: watch movies on flixzone. Me and my gf have been using them for watching a lot of movies these days.

[@karsynfletcher2826]

@Marley Colin Definitely, have been using flixzone} for since december myself :)

[@Mejiaelis]

I have heard an Italian nonna speak of these ovens the town people’s shared back when she was little. I’ve always wondered if they still existed and if I’d ever get to see them if they did. Needless to say...you’ve made my day!

[@smamat79]

This tradition is still alive and well in places like Morocco and Turkey.

[@KealaniAlexandra]

Absolutely brilliant pro move using plate to score the filled dough to ease the cutting. I hope Laura's grandchildren feel inspired.

Great lady, great recipe, very handsome cameraman ❤️

[@kimquinn7728]

My thoughts exactly. What a beautiful man.

[@all-gone]

Indeed!

[@marybethritger280]

Amen!

[@janetdiesnis456]

Laura makes it look effortless. A real pro. I have rolling pin envy now!

[@maplelassuk]

Me too!!!

[@croci17]

I was afraid that the dough could eventually break 😅. But she and all her coworkers from that village are very pro, doing this for years.

[@maplelassuk]

I love watching the grannies pin out the dough! My husband is a baker, he enjoys watching them too. I made tomato sauce today, with locally grown fresh deep red ripe tomatoes.....SO delicious! I also made ragu like I've seen here! I'm hoping to try making pasta, just don't which Grannie to follow, can't wait for your book. Thanks again for another great pasta grannie

[@sharendonnelly7770]

Love how the girls are so focused on Laura preparing and rolling out the dough, they are learning the art from a master. Love this channel.

[@WedartStudio]

Very nice, tasty traditional recipes! Thank you!👍😊

[@jlyssagraywolf7503]

I just discovered this channel today and have been binge watching for 6 hours. It's not fair they get to eat this food and I can't.

[@leporello7]

Wonderful! I love all your videos, but this one is outstanding. It is always so interesting to come to know not only a new recipe, but new tools and techniques as well - and of course villages and local specialties never heard of before.

[@GuidoBatt]

Love seeing the little kids watching in amazement. Don't miss a move! You'll have to learn that.

[@darylcurryer892]

Somehow, this is one of the most important, meaningful videos I have ever watched on KZbin.

[@artsbeatla]

Daryl Curryer I agree! Capturing these treasured methods for posterity. Every episode feels vital.

[@allgone4615]

Another delicious jewel in the crown of Pasta Grannies! Laura makes it look easy. I’d love to be her apprentice. Thank you for this wonderful recipe. xo

[@coletterice]

What a standout. Totally different and looks absolutely delicious! Thank you for this lovely video!

[@markitsche987]

I like this recipe very much. I can understand the reasoning behind cutting up the dough several times while kneading. Especially on wet dough. Thank you.

[@johnkovalicky3389]

It's just her way I guess , rite ! I actually might try it . Happy cooking !!!

[@gianni6497]

The purpose is to make the added flour absorbed well even within the mass of dough

[@NT-fk9ug]

That ancient style oven!!

[@pastagrannies]

that sounds interesting - and bread made in a wood burning oven is always the best! best wishes, Vicky

[@45ladybugs]

I love this channel it gives a birds-eye view into Italian home kitchen life. Pasta fan!

[@nealieanderson512]

I could watch her all day.....interesting cutting the dough!

[@DavidWeatherall]

I just found this channel, and will be watching all of these back to back and making notes! the one thing i'm loving is the purpose built wooden board these grannies have for rolling the dough!

[@all-gone]

The Tortelli reminds me of it’s Mexican cousin, the a Quesadilla! Looks delicious 😊👌🏻🙋🏼‍♂️

[@meriahaiello]

Amazing video!! I have to catch up again!! I have never seen this type of pasta before.. looks so good!

[@ashleybartsch6642]

I like the way she uses a plate to cut the dough, clever!

[@joybmassa]

So tempting to add just a sprinkle of good Parmesan !

[@croci17]

You mean inside in the souce? Or when it is cooked?

[@joybmassa]

ThorMas91 onto the filling or on top of the finished pasta!

[@croci17]

@@joybmassa I see. We usually put the Prosciutto crudo on top of it. And believe me it's something amazing.

[@joybmassa]

ThorMas91 Proscuitto “anything” sounds great to me! I’m looking up crudo with proscuitto to learn about it!

[@ASoulsHeartbeat]

What a great job the camera man has getting to sample. Looks delicious! Patti

[@Serendipity1977]

Che fantastica ricetta! E che manualità, la signora! 😍😍

[@manamancina438]

Son facilissimi da realizzare, e son buonissimi. Da farsi qualora si abbia poco tempo a disposizione e soprattutto si disponga dei materiali necessari per la cottura. Ma mi raccomando, non li confondete coi tortelli di patate alla mugellana. Son tutta un’altra cosa .

[@Songtextpoetin]

She has a beautiful kitchen.

[@stevelogan5475]

Vicky, that is a very creative recipe, labor intensive also, looks delicious, God bless ladies.

[@debraboyea7776]

I wish I could cook like that!

[@artsbeatla]

Takes practice! You just need to carve out a chunk of time and focus. You can arrange for someone else to do the clean up, but cleaning up as you go is also a good skill to cultivate.

[@atrinka1]

like pierogis with the mashed potatoes filling! Delish!

[@ocpd23]

A book!!!

[@angelahaxhillari4276]

Brava Laura.io li farò domenica.con patate e zucca.

Your camera man's eyes are beautiful! I must say, I always assumed it was you behind the camera. Didn't realize there was a production team.

[@pastagrannies]

hi Natalie, yes Andrea's very charming and all the signore love him! I'm director/second camera, and there's Livia, my Granny Finder. Sometimes it's just me, but it's helpful to have two cameras to catch everything. best wishes, Vicky

They are a little bit like the ravioli from Scapoli (IS) in Molise.

hi Soaud, yes probably - if something has to prove, or cook for a couple of hours, we ask the ladies to make a batch beforehand to shorten film times. best wishes, Vicky

This is almost like aloo paratha

[@bouseuxlatache4140]

hi, nice channel. since you are discussing with grannies, why don't you ask them about theit little ones?

[@lindamanuel9073]

Damn, the cameraman is fine.

[@Numbers28]

It's similar to Aloo paratha in India.

[@martinacapelli5770]

In Romagna si chiamano "bartolacci"

[@mauriziocosta8416]

Nella valle del Montone tortelli alla lastra, ma per l'impasto si usa quello della piadina, con lo strutto. C'è anche chi mette la zucca ferrarese nel compenso.

Grazie Martina, proverò filmare 😊🌺 best wishes, Vicky

A Tredozio (FC) il ripieno è molto variabile...mia nonna ad esempio fa il ripieno con patate, zucca, parmigiano grattugiato formaggio fresco e pancetta.
