Ingredients Wheat flour, eggs (today, on occasion only a great many yolks), salt, and sometimes a little oil or white wine. Formerly, a little butter was used instead of oil. For tajarin di meliga, wheat flour, corn flour, and eggs (variable number).
How Made The flour is sifted with a pinch of salt onto a wooden board and kneaded for a long time with whole eggs, or with only the yolks, and often also with a little olive oil or white wine. When the dough is firm and smooth, it is covered and allowed to rest. It is then rolled out into a thin sheet, and equally thin tagliolini are cut from it. They are boiled in salted water.
