Make the Pastries

  • Take the dough a little at a time, roll it out thinly with a rolling pin or using a pasta machine.
  • Make a thin rectangular sheet and place the cheese balls on the pastry, each far from the other so that you can close the fiadone. The procedure is similar to when making ravioli.
    San Donato Fiadoni
  • Brush the top part of the ravioli with a beaten egg yolk, make a small hole with scissors or a knife in the top part to act as a steam hole. Bake at 200 C in a fan over for 20 minutes. They are done when they are golden.
