Cavatelli (also know as ‘cavatielli’ or ‘cavatieddi‘)  is a type of fresh pasta, small hand-rolled pasta shell – made with eggless pasta dough (Durum- wheat flour and water). Origin: Southern Italy – Puglia (Apulia region) , Basilicata, Campania,  Molise, Calabria, and Sicily.

You will make by hand the dough: semolina flour is sifted and kneaded with warm water, energetically and for a few minutes, until a smooth, firm dough forms.

After the dough has rested, long snakes (thick as a pencil) are rolled by hand on the wooden board from pieces of the dough.

These long cylinders are cut into 2- cm lengths. With a pasta scraper, each piece of dough is drawn across the special cavatelli board, leaving it with an special indentation.

The teacher will show you how to shape the cavatelli with a special wooden grater and a spatula. 

The lesson is challenging because we will make cavatelli one by one.
