-------- ------------ --------------------------------
Pasta -- homemade with 4 eggs
-and 2 1/2 to 3 cups flour
6 qt -Water
3 tb -Salt
3 c Meat Sauce (see recipe)
1/2 c Beef salami -- diced -OR-
-pickled tongue -- diced -OR-

1/4 c Chicken fat -- or bone marrow*
1/2 c Raisins -- dark, seedless (opt)
1/2 c Almonds -- whole (opt)
1/2 c Pine nuts -- (opt)

*Anne's note: Butter or margarine may be substituted for the chicken fat as
it is used to grease a dish.

Roll out the dough not too thin and fold as you would for a jelly roll, 2
1/2" wide. Cut 1/6" wide slices and toss to unfold noodles.
Bring 6 quarts of water to a boil. Add tagliolini and salt; when boiling
resumes, cook 1 minute.
Drain, and place in a large bowl with meat sauce and diced cold cuts. Toss
quickly to distribute the dressing evenly.
Place in a round oven proof baking dish, well greased with fat.* If using
raisins and nuts, make layers, alternating pasta with a mixture of raisins
and nuts. Bake in 350F oven for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or till a nice crust is
formed on all sides. Invert over a serving dish and bring to the table.
