Sfoglia (Italian: [ˈsfɔʎ.ʎa]) is the uncut fresh pasta sheet from which many types of Italian fresh egg pasta made using only flour and eggs is made. Pasta made from sfoglia is considered a fundamental dish in order to form a meal in Romagnan cuisine.
Ingredients
The basic recipe of sfoglia utilizes the ingredients of flour and eggs consistently. Variations include the use of Marsala cooking wine as seen in a 1931 newspaper.
Production
The ingredients of sfoglia must be rolled into paper-thin sheets by hand using a mattarello (wooden rolling pin). Pasta from sfoglia is traditionally made by sfoglinas (also known as azdoras in the local dialect) in Emilia-Romagna.
The pastas produced using sfoglias include agnolini, lasagne, tagliatelle, alle pappardelle, tortellini, garganelli, cappelletti, tortelli, e ravioli. Gnocchi, while closely related and an integral part of Bolognese cuisine, is not based on la sfoglia.
