Gnocchetti sardo / Malloreddus board

Malloreddus are a typical type of pasta for Sardinia.

With this grooved board made of beech wood you can produce Malloreddus, more commonly known in this country as Gnocchetti sardi, yourself without any additional tools. This type of pasta can also be found under the names Macarrones de Punzu, Gigiones, Cravaos, Cassulli or Macarones Caidos.

The dough is simply made from durum wheat semolina and water. By pressing the dough over the ridged surface of the board, a ridged shell shape is created.
If you believe Wikipedia, the dough strands used to be pressed against a wicker basket to get the fluted shape. Later the board replaced the basket.
