Chef's Notes
Do not rush the spinach-wringing phase, moisture is the ultimate enemy of a light malfatti dumpling. Treat your ricotta with respect, and it will reward you with pillowy perfection.
Pro Tip
Shaping quenelles is purely about rhythm and confidence. Keep your spoons slightly damp to prevent the sticky dough from clinging to the metal.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Skip wringing the spinach or leave your ricotta weeping with moisture, and you will not be serving delicate Italian malfatti; instead, you will inadvertently invent a radioactive green porridge that dissolves entirely upon touching boiling water, leaving you weeping into a pot of expensive grey sludge.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
Our royal kitchen staff spent three hours perfecting these 'badly formed' dumplings, which seems like a tremendous amount of effort just to name them after a culinary failure.
The Culinary Science
Salt acts through osmosis to draw excess intracellular water out of spinach cell walls, allowing you to wring it completely dry and prevent a soggy dough disaster.
