STROZZAPRETI

STROZZAPRETI Stozzapreti was a kind of poor pasta that uses simple ingredients but that requires a decent manual skill for its processing.
The pastry rolled with a rolling pin is not too thin, it is cut into strips and then processed manually one by one between the palms of your hands until they taper. This type of pasta is served with a sauce made by well-seasoned meat and vegetables.
The origin of the name is uncertain and may derive as from the strength of the mixture as from the irony based on the traditional anticlericalsm typical of the area historically dominated by the Papal States.
