ancient recipe
The ancient recipe from Northern Italy! The delicious capunsei that few know about!A humble first course, created to save bread, which today surpasses many "luxury" dishes: Mantua's capunsei with sausage and tomato sauce are a true treat of traditional cuisine. Soft, flavorful, and reminiscent of home and a family Sunday.
In this video, I'll take you to Lombardy, in the Mantua area, to prepare a peasant recipe that seems complicated but is actually within everyone's reach. I'll show you step-by-step how to make firm yet soft capunsei that don't break during cooking and absorb the sauce perfectly.
The sauce is super simple but packed with flavor: sausage, tomato, and a few other “poor” ingredients you probably already have in your pantry.
I'll also leave you all my tricks for:
choosing the right bread
find the ideal consistency of the dough
season the capunsei well without covering the flavour of the bread
obtain a creamy, enveloping and very fragrant sauce 😍
If you love regional Italian cuisine, the simple cuisine of the past and heart-warming mountain/country dishes, this recipe will immediately become one of your favourites.
