Pansoti rotondi

Alcuni pansoti rotondi crudi dal pastificio.
I pansoti rotondi crudi (ma credo che si possano anche chiamare pansotti, con due t), uno dei classici tipi di pasta ligure ovviamente da condire con la salsa di noci (sugo di noci).
Questi, come capirete, non sono fatti in casa ma da noi si possono trovare quasi fatti in maniera casalinga in uno dei molti pastifici (che sempre vi forniscono anche la salsa se non siete in grado di farvela).

Pansoti, pansòti in Ligurian, (from the Ligurian pansa, in Italian “belly”), are a typical stuffed pasta of Ligurian cuisine, similar to ravioli, from which they differ essentially in size and the absence of meat in the filling. Pansoti with walnut sauce (pansöti co-a sarsa de noxe) are one of the cheapest and most characteristic dishes of the Genoese tradition. Since pansoti do not contain meat, they are a lean dish, once considered suitable for the penitential period of Lent. They are often mistakenly also called “pansòtti”, as in some Ligurian provinces there is verbal emphasis on the last syllables; the double letter is therefore to be attributed to an exclusively vocal language.

Excellent fresh ravioli from the pasta factory in Sestri

Excellent fresh ravioli from a pasta factory in Sestri.
Not everyone has the time, patience and talent to make fresh ravioli at home. In my house they are made for Christmas and Easter (and only in a few other exceptional cases). The rest of the time, vegetable ravioli (lean) are bought already made (more or less artisanal) in local pasta factories.
These are the ones prepared by Pastificio Moderno in Sestri Levante.

Go see my article with my personal ranking of the restaurants where I ate the best ravioli al ragù in the Province of Genoa di Levante.
