Un bel piatto di pansoti alla salsa di noci anche a bordo

A nice plate of pansoti with walnut sauce even on board.
When I'm on a ship, even if the food is very varied, I really miss home food.
So when I go to Savona or Genoa I always ask my wife to bring me something from home.
In this case I had asked for pansoti (the packaged but very good ones from the pasta factory Novella) to season with walnut sauce (this one prepared on board).
The result, as you can see for yourself, was excellent!

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.

Traditional Ligurian Pansoti and Ravioli on Sundays

Pansoti e ravioli della tradizione Ligure alla domenica

Pansoti and ravioli of the Ligurian tradition on Sunday.
Last Sunday I went, with my mother-in-law and my sister-in-law, to eat at the trattoria Ou Settembrin in Carasco.
In the Ligurian tradition we couldn't help but order the pansoti with walnut sauce and the ravioli al tocco (with meat sauce); both very good as always!

My home made ravioli with ragù

I ravioli al ragù di casa mia

My home-made ravioli with ragù.
At my house, at least for Christmas and Easter, there is never a shortage of my mother's handmade vegetable ravioli.
Ravioli made in the Eastern Ligurian style (i.e. lean) with some wild herbs, if you can find them, and a little ricotta.
Seasoned, of course, with meat ragù (which in my house is made almost like the classic Genoese "tuccu").
Enjoy your meal!

I pansoti con la salsa di noci

Un piatto di pansoti con la salsa di noci.
Un piatto veramente tipico della Liguria sono i pansoti conditi con la salsa di noci.
Di pansoti ce ne sono di diverso tipo ma sempre con lo stesso ripieno di verdure e ricotta: ci sono quelli triangolari, quelli rotondi, quelli a fagotto e quelli quadrati.
A me piacciono proprio tutti.
La ricetta per la salsa ve l’ho già postata, qualche tempo fa, here.

Pansoti with walnut sauce

I pansoti alla salsa di noci

Pansoti with walnut sauce.
A nice plate of pansoti, this time not the triangular ones but the round ones (which are sometimes also called tortiglioni), with a lean filling of vegetables and ricotta seasoned with an excellent walnut sauce, they are a nice classic of Ligurian cuisine.
The pansoti are bought from the pasta factory while the sauce is homemade by my mother, whose recipe I have already told you about.

Walnut sauce to dress pansoti, the recipe

La salsa di noci,

Walnut sauce to season pansoti, the recipe.
Today I decided to write you the recipe for one of the most famous sauces in Liguria. Obviously the first, and most famous, is pesto alla genovese but connoisseurs know that with walnuts you can prepare a delicious sauce with which you season the classic pansoti or trofie.

Ingredients:
– Walnuts
– A slice of stale bread
– Milk
– Garlic
– Marjoram
– Salt
– Oil

First, take a slice of bread and soak it in a little milk.
Then boil the shelled walnuts for a couple of minutes.

Once the walnuts are hot (don't leave them too long, please) you need to do a very complicated and boring operation: peel the walnuts from their skin.
To tell the truth, lately we don't do it anymore at my house, so my sauce has a slightly more bitter taste than the classic one.

To finalize the preparation now there are two ways: the marble mortar (the same one used for pesto) or the blender.
The choice is yours.

Add the bread, walnuts, garlic (very little, mind you, half a clove is enough), salt, marjoram and oil to the peeled walnuts and start beating with the pestle (or blending) until you reach a creamy consistency.
Adjust by adding a little milk if the sauce is too thick.

Now the sauce is ready to be combined with the chosen pasta.

In the comments there are different positions on whether to add Parmesan or not. Add a comment and explain to us how you prepare this sauce.

In this case, some vegetable ravioli-shaped pansoti:

Un must della cucina ligure e’ questo splendido piatto. Chi di voi non lo ha mai assaggiato?
Se non lo avete mai provato, veramente, vi perdete una prelibatezza.
Gia’ i pansoti sono spettacolari anche solo con burro e salvia. Se poi ci aggiungiamo uno dei tipici condimenti liguri, la salsa fatta con le noci, diventano imbattibili.
Provare per credere!

A plate of pansoti with meat sauce

Pansoti o pansotti al ragù

A plate of pansoti with meat sauce.
A delight of Ligurian cuisine is this type of pasta seasoned with meat sauce (the tocco).
These are in fact bought from a pasta factory in Sestri Levante, the Pastifico Moderno right in the middle of the Sestrese alley (it doesn't have its own website, here's the review on tripadvisor.it).
The meat sauce, yes, is homemade. It's not the famous tocco described by Loris but it's still what my mother makes (from her mother-in-law's recipe) and it's delicious.

I ravioli di Dasso a Lavagna conditi con il ragù

Ravioli di Dasso al ragù

I ravioli di Dasso a Lavagna conditi con il ragù.
Una delle paste fresche storiche che produce tra i migliori ravioli di magro in Riviera.
Dalle nostre parti tutti i pastifici fanno i ravioli di magro (che poi sarebbero dei pansoti più piccoli e di forma quadrata) più o meno buoni.
Questi sono veramente ottimi ma poi, ve lo ricordo, serve anche il sugo buono… e quello della foto è quello fresco fatto in casa da mia mamma con la carne comprata dal macellaio di fiducia.
