Little Caves / Cavatelli

SERVES 6 TO 8
Cavatelli means little caves or quarries. This interesting pasta reminds me of gnocchi because of the little dents or ridges in the dough. I make these on a special cavatelli machine, but they can also be made by hand using a comb.

Ingredients

  • INGREDIENTSAbout 3 3/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup semolina flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1 pound whole-milk ricotta cheese, well drained
  • 1/4 cup water
