     Title: Sfogliatella Riccia
Categories: Italian, Desserts, Pastry, Filling
  Servings: 10

      1 c  water
    1/2 c  ricotta
      1 pn salt
    1/2 c  confectioner's sugar
    1/2 c  semolina
      1    cup, 2 oz. flour
      6 oz butter
      2 oz strutto
      1 pn cinnamon
      3 oz candied orange peel, diced
      1    egg yolk

Shell-shaped Flaky Ricotta Pastries

Bring the water to a boil, add a pinch of salt and pour in the
semolina, stirring so as not to form lumps. Cook, stirring for about
8 mins., stirring constantly. Let cool. Make a fontana with the
flour. Put half of the butter, a pinch of salt and as much water as
necessary to knead the dough to a smooth and elastic consistency.
Wrap the dough in a towel and let rest for an hour.

Sift the ricotta; mix with the semolina, 6 tbs. sugar, a pinch of
cinnamon and the candied peel. Roll out the pastry with a rolling
pin to obtain a 25x18-in. rectangle, 1/16-in. thick. Cut the pastry
vertically into 4 strips and place one on top of the other, brushing
each one with melted butter. Let rest for half an hour, and then
roll up the stack of dough.

Slice the roll into 10 equal pieces with a very sharp, floured
knife. Place the pieces on the pastry board and roll them gently
with the rolling pin, first vertically, in an upward direction, and
then in a downwards direction, to give them an oval shape.

Turn the ovals over, place a bit of ricotta filling in the middle of
each one, brush the edges with egg yolk, then fold the dough over
and press to seal. Brush the sfogliatelle with melted strutto and
place on a paper greased with butter. Bake in a pre-heated oven at
425 F for 20 mins. Remove from the oven. Brush with melted butter
again, lower the temperature to 350ºF and bake for another 20 mins.
Let cool, sprinkle with confectioner's sugar and serve.
