Artisan Egg Tagliatelle Pasta
What it is
This is a package of dried tagliatelle pasta made with egg. The pasta is crafted using traditional methods, giving it a distinct texture and richness. The egg content contributes to a more tender bite and a golden hue when cooked. It is a staple for many Italian-inspired dishes, offering a satisfying base for a variety of sauces and preparations. The pasta is dried to ensure a long shelf life and consistent cooking performance.
How people cook with it
Tagliatelle is a versatile pasta shape that pairs well with many different sauces.
- With rich meat sauces
- Tossed with cream sauces
- Served with pesto
- As a base for baked dishes
To cook this tagliatelle, bring a large pot of generously salted water to a rolling boil. Add the pasta and stir gently to prevent sticking. Cook according to package directions, typically for 8-10 minutes, until al dente. Al dente means the pasta is tender but still has a slight firmness to the bite. Drain the pasta, reserving some of the cooking water. Toss immediately with your chosen sauce, adding a little reserved pasta water if needed to help the sauce coat the strands evenly.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to standard dried pasta, this tagliatelle contains egg, which results in a richer flavor and a softer texture. The artisan production may also lead to slight variations in thickness and shape, contributing to a more handmade feel and better sauce adhesion.

How to keep the rest
