Pasta made “al bronzo” is rarely found and usually only in selected delicatessens. By pressing the pasta dough through the bronze matrices, the surface of the pasta is slightly roughened, making the pasta easier to grip. This will allow the pasta to absorb the sauce, flavours and spices better later. Recipe:It is recommended to use durum wheat semolina, sufficient cold liquid such as water and/or egg. The dough should be approx. Knead for 8-10 minutes, only then can the gluten from the durum wheat fully develop. The result should be a moist, crumbly dough. We recommend the following standard recipe for our matrices: Ingredients: 250 g durum wheat semolina or Semola rimacinata Choose ONE of the following ingredients: 100 ml cold water or 110 ml liquid consisting of two eggs, rest water, lightly whisk Instructions: Please only use cold liquids. Avoid flour, better replace with semolina. Binding agents such as xanthan, gluten, etc. Use only in small amounts, maximum 1 teaspoon per 500 g of dry ingredients. Otherwise the dough will become too hard and the matrices could break. If you knead the dough longer or If you let it rest, the gluten develops on its own. You can tell that pasta dough is good because it is moist and crumbly. The production of gluten-free pasta is also possible with the matrices.Storage: Do you have several bronze matrices and are looking for a storage solution to protect screen from dust and darkening due to light? Then we recommend our storage systems, which you can find in our range.
