Winter in northern Italy is sometimes sunny, and sometimes snowy and white, especially in the mountains. New Year's Eve is a time that unites relatives and loved ones at the same table.
Festive table in Italy
A huge number of dishes and drinks on the table has always been an integral part of the festive Christmas feast. Such an abundance was especially noticeable among the poor Italians, since it was during the holidays that all the best and most tasty appeared on their tables. In modern Italy, much has changed, and holiday tables are no longer bursting with a large number of dishes. Today, a celebration for Italians is just an excuse to get together with family or friends, socialize, eat deliciously and remember the traditions of their ancestors.
Agnolotti
In Piedmont, neither Christmas nor New Year's meals can do without agnolotti gobbi ai tre arrosti. This is a stuffed pasta that is so full of filling that it becomes a curve. Hence the name "hobby" (humpback). Agnolotti is usually stuffed with stewed beef, chicken breast, fried rabbit meat or sausages with vegetables such as spinach, chard or salad chicory. Add Parmesan, nutmeg, salt and pepper to the filling. And we begin with you our culinary and gastronomic theater! The main characters of our performance will be dough and filling. And then I will tell you what we need.

Cooking
Sift flour on a table. In the center of the flour hill, make a small depression, drive eggs in, add olive oil and salt. When the dough becomes homogeneous, form a ball out of it and leave at room temperature. But pasta agnolotti gobbi ai tre arrosti would not be this pasta without a gorgeous meat filling. This time we will use rabbit meat, velvet, tender and juicy. Marinate rabbit meat in olive oil with salt and pepper. Then cook it for 1.5 hours. Separate the rabbit meat from the bones (we save them - they will still be needed), finely chop and add ricotta, mascarpone, fresh thyme, salt, pepper, olive oil, garlic. All mix well. To prepare the sauce, fry the onions, carrots, celery until golden brown, then add the rabbit bones and simmer for 2-3 hours. After this, filter the sauce and add the cream. Cook ravioli for 6-7 minutes, and then put them in a container with ready-made sauce and simmer for 1-2 minutes. And the final touch will be grated parmesan, which we sprinkle with agnolotti gobbi ai tre arrosti. We uncork a bottle of Barolo red wine, for example, and enjoy this bliss! Good appetite!
