Receta Chestnut/ Hazelnut Tagliatelle
In Italy the Fall, is the time of the nut harvest. Chestnuts, which we always serve roasted for the holidays, are also ground into a meal or flour and used to flavor many dishes. This pasta can be made with either the flour or cooked chestnuts ground finely. Today I used a mixture of hazelnut and chestnut flours. I dressed it simply with a brown butter and sage sauce

- 1 cup 00 Italian flour (Iâve also used White Lily)
- generous 1/2 cup chestnut-flour">chestnut flour or combination of chestnut and hazelnut

Direcciones
- Put all ingredients in food processor and pulse till it leaves the sides of the bowl and the color is uniform.
- Knead on a lightly floured surface for a few minutes, wrap in plastic wrap, and let rest for at least an hour.
- Divide in quarters and pass each piece through a pasta machine set on the widest setting. fold in half and repeat at same setting 3 or 4 times, then run it through each progressive thinner setting 1 time. On my manual machine I go to #5.
- Take the rolled out sheet of pasta and run it through the setting for tagliatelle.
- To cut by hand, dust sheet of pasta with flour and toll up from the narrow end. Cut into 1/4 inch slices, unroll and set on lightly floured towels.
- Set aside on lightly floured tea towels or hand on dowels to dry till ready to cook.Â
- Bring a large well salted pot of water to a rolling boil. Add pasta and cook just a few minutes till tender and al dente
- While the water comes to a boil, melt 1/2 cup of butter in a skillet.
- Over medium low heat cook till butter is sizzling and starts to turn a light golden brown(it will smell slightly nutty).
- Immediately toss in a handfull of fresh sage leaves and remove from heat. Give a quick stir to coat the leaves- they will quickly darken and crisp.
- Set aside till pasta is cooked and toss together. The butter is infused with a mild taste of sage and the crisp leaves on the fork with the tagliatelle are a treat.
- You can also squirt in a touch of fresh lemon juice and toss. Enjoy!
