  • Rita's calcione are delicious! They're easy to make, and the lemon zestiness brightens up a dull day. Here is Rita's recipe:
    For the filling: 500g of grated pecorino and 100g of parmigiano cheese, 200g castor sugar, 3 egg whites, lemon extract, lemon zest half a lemon
    For the dough: 3 egg yolks plus 6 eggs, 500g 0/plain flour, 80g sugar, 50g unsalted butter. lemon zest and extract. Bake for 20 minutes at 200C.

    This is wonderful! My grandmother is from Marche and made these - BUT with her accent I could NEVER spell calcione to find a recipe”… my Dad tried to recreate them from his “taste memory” (he passed away 6 years ago and NOW I will be able to make them! How amazing you found a pasta grannie who knows them…THANK YOU!

    TREIA cittadina poco lontana da me. I calcioni li ho mangiati parecchi anni fa ma non mi sono mai cimentata a farli. Grazie alla signora Rita che ha condiviso la ricetta.

    The look delicious! I wish that cheese wasn't so expensive in the US. Of course, it looks like it makes several dozen of them.

    Another dish from Marche! You would never guess that Rita is 84. It has to be the ingredients and the air. My family is from the region, too, and when we watched our family had not heard of this wonderful sweet ravioli, either. That should definitely change because they look so good. Thanks for another great installment!

    • @pastagrannies

    Fascinating, I expected a cream cheese, but no, melted cheese and sugar...I rarely drink alcohol and may be talking rubbish, but these feel like they'd pair better with a dry white wine or something than tea or the usual dessert accompaniments. What clever things!

    I have never seen anything like these in all my Italian cookbooks that I have!! I wonder if a touch of cinnamon and/or Nutmeg would add a little something to it.

    • @pastagrannies
      @pastagrannies  Před 5 měsíci +1

      hi Roy, for me the lemon zest was enough; you might want to make a batch and use different spices in each as an experiment! best wishes, Vicky

  • @gfhit7520

    • @brucetidwell7715
      @brucetidwell7715 Před 5 měsíci +1

      Good quality lemon extract is lemon oil in alcohol but cheaper kinds are artificial. It's not the same as orange flower water at all.

    So the "salty" flavor is strictly from the cheese?

      Yes , pecorino and parmigiano

    • @rlt9492
      @rlt9492 Před měsícem

      A lot of old-school Italian recipes blur the line between sweet and savory, so it’s both or neither depending on how you look at it. A lot of Medieval and Renaissance era Italian recipes combine sharp salty cheeses like Parmesan and Pecorino with sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, dried fruits, and egg custards, along with savory herbs like oregano and rosemary. Totally different sensibility.
