Ingredients
Main Ingredients (4 servings)
- Buckwheat Flour 150g (approx. 1 cup)
- Bread Flour 100g (approx. 3/4 cup)
- Egg 1
- Milk 50ml (approx. 3.5 tbsp)
- Savoy Cabbage 1/2
- Potatoes 2
- Garlic 1 clove
- Sage Leaves (to taste)
- Butter 160g (approx. 5.6 oz)
Seasonings
- Water 50ml (approx. 3.5 tbsp)
- Salt (to taste)
- Salt (for boiling water, to taste)
Steps
- In a bowl, combine buckwheat flour 150g, bread flour 100g, 1 egg, milk 50ml, and salt (to taste). Mix lightly.
- Once combined, gradually add water 50ml while kneading the dough by hand. Knead until a soft, manageable dough forms. While buckwheat flour has less gluten and can be difficult to bind, using bread flour helps create a pliable dough with the right amount of moisture.
- Once the dough comes together, wrap it in plastic wrap and let it rest.
- Cut the Savoy cabbage in half, remove the hard core, and chop it coarsely. If the pieces are too long, cut them in half again.
- Peel the potatoes and cut them into bite-sized cubes.
- Peel the garlic, cut it in half, remove the germ, and lightly smash it.
- Cut the butter into manageable pieces.
- On a lightly floured surface (using buckwheat or wheat flour), roll out the rested dough with a rolling pin to a thickness of 2-3mm.
- Cut the rolled-out dough into three approximately 7-10cm long strips. Lightly flour the strips, stack them, and cut them into about 2cm wide pieces.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil with 1% salt added. First, add the potatoes and cook until tender. The potatoes should be boiled for a total of approximately 10 minutes until soft.
- Approximately 2 minutes after adding the potatoes, add the Savoy cabbage and the cut buckwheat pasta. Continue to boil for another 6 minutes.
- While the pasta is boiling, melt a generous amount of butter in a frying pan. Add the smashed garlic and sauté until it turns a nice golden brown.
- Once the garlic is fragrant, add the whole sage leaves to infuse the butter with their aroma. Set the butter sauce aside.
- Transfer the boiled pasta, potatoes, and Savoy cabbage to a warm serving dish or pot.
- Top the warm pasta and vegetables with Fontina cheese 100g and Parmesan cheese 60g. Cover and let the residual heat melt the cheese.
- Gently reheat the butter sauce. Once it starts to simmer, remove from heat.
- When the cheese has melted, pour the reheated butter sauce (discard the garlic cloves) over the entire dish.
- Add extra Parmesan cheese (not included in the measurement) and toss everything together well. It is now ready to serve.
