Gnocchetti sardi

The malloreddus are a kind of gnocchi.

In the Logudoro macarones caidos, are called elsewhere pizzottis.

To give them merit is smallness.

Are made with durum wheat flour.

It is very interesting to note how in Sardinia will retain its three varieties of Roman meal which as you know were the simila (the fine flour) by pollen (less thin flour) from furfur (bran).

And the Sardinians in fact distinguish the simbula or simulates, poddini and furfuru.

In order to better shape the malloreddus in the island using a special tool round crossed by slender reeds which is called ciuliri.

Work the flour with the oil and slightly salted warm water until dough is very soft.

Make lots of rather thin sticks and then cut them into chunks scavandoIi with the index in the Middle, then allineateli on a floured cloth.
