Fagottelli "Carbonara" recipe: Chef Heinz Beck (La Pergola) | Inside ...

I opened a special parcel the other day: a signed copy of Pasta by Chef Heinz Beck. Inside, to my surprise was scribed ?Ciao Rebecca. See you soon.? and signed ?Heinz Beck 2012.? Special indeed. Grazie Chef!

Prior to his Sydney visit to cook at Caffe Sicilia and my recent interview with him, Chef Heinz Beck has been kind enough to share a recipe from 3-Michelin La Pergola:

the dough and close it in the shape of a cigarette. Press the dough with fingers, fold and cut out the ?Fagottelli? with a toothed wheel.

The veal stock:

Cut into small pieces the trimmings of veal; break the bones and put everything in a pan that can go in the oven with a little of extra virgin olive oil.
