Strapponi

Make a thin layer with flour and eggs about one millimetre thick and not too dry. Then rip (the name of this course derives from this action), from the thin layer, some stripes as large as tagliatelle and cook them in salted water. Fry lightly some home-made bread crumb and flavour it with chopped garlic, salt and pepper.

Dress the "strapponi" with this sort of sauce and many grated "pecorino" ( sheep's milk cheese).
