Pasta Dough (continued):
Using a fork, begin to incorporate the flour into egg mixture a little at a time until the dough is too thick
for the fork to mix.
Place mixture onto a workable surface and continue to work flour into wet ingredients.
Knead dough over itself until enough gluten has developed that when you poke to dough with your finger,
the dough springs back to original position.
Wrap dough in plastic wrap and allow it to rest while filling is being made.
Pasta Filling and Sauce:
Mix all ingredients together (except for 1 egg, vinegar and additional ½ cup of crème fraîche) in
mixing bowl.
Transfer to a piping bag or a plastic baggie with one corner cut off to act as a piping bag.
Cut pasta dough into 4 pieces.
Using one piece at a time, wrap the remaining three pieces in plastic wrap or cover with a damp towel
until ready to use.
Using a pasta roller (or a kitchen aid attachment), roll pasta through machine on widest setting.
Repeat this step until pasta dough is the entire width of machine. Continue to roll pasta through machine,
one thinner setting at a time until pasta is about 1/16” thick or setting number 5 on most pasta rollers.
Lay pasta sheet out on work surface.
Brush both sides of dough lightly with flour.
Pipe/place roughly 2 Tbsp of filling ½” from bottom of dough and 1” apart.
Using a pastry brush, lightly brush egg between each set of filling, along bottom seam and above filling.
Roll dough over filling, starting from the bottom, working upward, repeating twice.
Push the dough between each filling together to ensure it sticks together.
Using a pasta cutter, cut top of pasta dough the entire length of the stuffed pasta to create a
crimped edge.
Cut agnolotti apart from another leaving about a ½“ over hang on both sides of the filled pasta.
Add remaining crème fraîche to pot and reduce by half, add vinegar and remaining chives, remove
from heat.
Bring medium pot of water to a boil with a pinch of salt.
