A vibrant green dough, as beautiful as it is delicious. It builds on the classic fresh egg base, with finely chopped or puréed cooked spinach added for vibrant colour and a hint of flavour. It’s traditionally used for dishes like lasagne verdi or spinach tagliatelle and works beautifully for filled pastas too. The addition of spinach makes the dough slightly softer and more delicate to work with, but the technique is the same.
