Agnolotti is a type of stuffed pasta, similar to ravioli, originating from the Piedmont region of Italy. These small, typically rectangular or half-moon shaped pasta pockets are made from fresh egg pasta dough and filled with a variety of savory fillings. Common fillings include roasted meat (such as beef, veal, or rabbit), vegetables, and cheeses. The pasta itself has a delicate, smooth texture, while the filling provides a rich and flavorful experience. Agnolotti are often served simply, dressed with butter and sage, a light tomato sauce, or a meat-based ragu, allowing the quality of the pasta and filling to shine through. The appearance is often a pale yellow color, with slight variations depending on the egg content of the dough.

Agnolotti is best stored according to whether it is fresh, dried, or frozen. Fresh agnolotti should be refrigerated in an airtight container and used within a few days. Dried agnolotti should be stored in a cool, dry place, like a pantry, in its original packaging or an airtight container for extended shelf life. Frozen agnolotti can be kept in the freezer in its original packaging or a freezer bag, and cooked directly from frozen.
