  • These days, most people buy their bigoli pasta; but you can make your own and Celia shows us how. Bigoli con l'arna (or anatra,) is a tomato-less duck sauce, and a classic combination from the Vicenza area of Italy. You can buy 'bigolaro' presses on the internet but the pasta attachment of your food mixer will do the job (not as well because they don't have the bronze dies). You can also hand roll the strands in the manner of pici (see Peppa's episode from a couple of weeks ago).

      Agreed
      Many higher grade crank pasta machines (like Marcato) have a Bigoli attachment that takes far less space.
      Personally, I make Bigoli when I'm pressed for time, as you don't have to roll the dough as thin as for fettuccine.

    Meraviglioso. My family (from Parma) and the family of my ex-wife (Mantova) used the "bigolaro". The secret is to get the right tenacity of the dough. Not too hard, not too soft.

  • @MouYijian

    Hail to Vicky! Very interesting video, I myself had never seen a 'bigolator' in action. While living in Venice a few years ago, I often had Bigoli in Sauce (bígoï in salsa), a staple of Venetian traditional cuisine, which, despite the city's magnificence, tends to consists of cheap, simple and readily available ingredients. The "sauce" is just onions and anchovies, cooked veeery gently in olive oil until reduced to a savory paste. The noodles are cooked very much al dente with little to no salt, drained and tossed into the sauce (that is why they are called "In Sauce" and not "With Sauce") with a ladle or two of the starchy cooking water. A quick stir-mixing (not stir-frying) and there you go. I mean, that's it. A filling, tasty bowl of goodness on a budget, often less than £5.
    The duck ragout shown in this video is, of course, something of a totally different level, a true masterpiece, but the humble origins of the noodle are the same.
    For language geeks, according to popular etymology, "bigolo" is the diminutive form of "bigàt", a caterpillar in the local dialects. Therefore, "bigoli" as a word is practically the same as "vermicelli", literally "wormlets", due to the particular shape of these thick noodles.

    • @pastagrannies
      @pastagrannies  4 года назад +1

      Hi MouYijan, I didn't know about where the word bigoli came from - thanks for sharing that! The bigoli in salsa recipe iis a good one, very dependent on getting decent anchovies to begin with! best wishes, Vicky

My gosh that looks good, and we eat a lot of fowl in kentucky, they are indeginous to kentucky and we hunt them so the meat is free. We raise ckix, but we hunt turkey, quail, pheasant, duck, geese, etc...i really like duck. I have never seen a spaghetti machine cutter like that, very innovative, and the entire meal looks delicious. I have to give the pastagrannies best recipe of the week, i have not seen any chefs with their talent and recipes. God bless you all.

    Besides needing space to store the Bigolaro/Torchio, the other potential drawback is that they are not inexpensive- anywhere from $200-400, for the ones I have seen. Of course, for her, since they are from her home region, and I would assume she makes the pasta relatively frequently, that not might be a deterrent to owning one. One other alternative that works pretty well is to use a meat grinder (I have one that is an attachment for my Kitchen-Aid). Just remember to leave out the cutting blade, and just use the die with all the holes in it. Works pretty well. I've also seen where the pasta dough varies a bit; not sure if by family or local tradition-some doughs incorporate whole-wheat and/or buckwheat as well as AP or "00" flour.

    • @pastagrannies
      @pastagrannies  4 года назад

      hi Mark, yes you need to be an enthusiastic pasta maker to justify the cost/space of this torchio. Good tip about the meat grinder -although I think Kitchen Aid also produce a pasta making gadget? And if gadgets aren't your thing, you could always make pici instead for similar results. 😊 best wishes, Vicky

      The conclusion i made up in my mind is that her instrument compresses a lot the dow and therefore the spaghettis getting out. To me there was not a big amount comparing to the size of the dow. Maybe that's why they take longer because she seemed to be a good cooker i don't think she wouldn't know when pastas are al dente :)
