1

Cuoci la zucca: tagliala a cubetti, cuoci a vapore o al forno finchรฉ morbida, poi schiacciala bene con una forchetta o frullala. Importante che sia asciutta (se troppo acquosa, falla asciugare in padella qualche minuto).

2

Impasto: versa la farina a fontana su una spianatoia, aggiungi la purea di zucca e impasta fino ad avere un composto liscio ed elastico. Se appiccicoso, aggiungi un poโ€™ di farina.

3

Riposo: avvolgi lโ€™impasto in pellicola e lascia riposare 30 minuti.

4

Stendi e taglia: stendi con mattarello o macchina della pasta fino allo spessore desiderato e taglia in formati a piacere (tagliatelle, pappardelle, maltagliati, o anche ravioli se vuoi farcirli).

5

Cottura: lessa in acqua bollente salata per 2โ€“3 minuti.
