Go to the Recipe: Hazelnut Ragout Pappardelle
This is sexy. I'd like to see beurre noisette, hazelnuts, and use some pasta water to distribute the fat. Thanks for the idea and tricks.
To remove the hazelnut skins I put them in 2 cups of water with 3 tbls of baking soda and boiled for 3 minutes then rinsed off and into an ice bath. The skins come right off. Solution was from Julia Child.
I'm making this tomorrow for an out of town friend. Any wine pairing suggestions? My instincts are saying sparking white since it's so rich? But I defer to anyone with more knowledge than me (which is everyone!) Thanks!
I'll second you offering a wine suggestion here folks. I'm an anything but chardonnay kinda guy but a young oaked/less buttery one sticks out first for me (if I may show what I don't know). But please don't stop there! My newest opportunity has become some beer dinners, and I have everything for this recipe already in the larder at the Lodge. We can do this.Would you suggest a beer style as well? Seattle folks know beer well, right? ;-)
My husband is planning on serving Goose Island Matilda as the beer pairing. It's a belgian style farmhouse ale.
White, with a good amount of acidity to cut through the richness and coating quality of the egg yolk.
how did you make the pappardelle?

What would you recommend as a substitution for marjoram? Sage? Basil or something else?
A little bit of sage would be nice.

My wife is breastfeeding and can't have dairy. Is there a substitute for the cream? coconut cream?
Wow, that looks incredible !
The recipe is incredible. I have one question. Which cream I should use - sweet or sour?
Hey Filip! I recommend you to use "Crème fraîche" (English pronunciation : /ˌkrɛmˈfrɛʃ/) is a soured cream containing 30–45% butterfat. It is soured, but is less sour than U.S.-style sour cream.
Yes, I would eat this everyday! So tasty!
If I were to serve this to say, 25 ppl, what would the best way to prepare and hold the eggs so that they dont carry over and over cook? Thanks!
if you are poaching them i would recommend slightly under poaching them all off cooling them down in ice water and then when it's time to serve reheat in simmering water for sous vide eggs time the eggs to be done around about the same (with the 63 degree egg 5-10 mins won't matter) for 75 degree eggs cook before hand the reheat at 63 for 10-15mins
I used a Linguine. It would be better, if I had used pappardelle. So, for next time! Thx for the recipe!
What would be a nice piece of meat to serve with this dish?
Love it. When there's cream, especially a cream sauce, I need to ask why I would not add a hint of nutmeg. I did add a hit of nutmeg.
Because they didn't want the flavor of nutmeg in their sauce. That's why. You're free to do whatever you wish to any one of these recipes when you make them.
Is there any downside to Toasting the Hazelnuts in advance to save time the night of?
this is not good. very heavy dish.
The 75 degree notation on the video and recipe must be an error! A 75 degree egg is hard boiled!
looks more like a 63 or 64 degree egg. Ref: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GpvbNG1Dzhk
75 C for 13 minutes is not hard boiled
That's one sexy meal. Perfect for Valentines!
anyone think chestnuts would be great with this?
Yammy! I want to try!

Tasty!
Does anyone know a tasty mail-order source for hazelnuts here in the US? Heck, I'll even take an overseas source if they're spectacular. I miss the almost buttery(?), lively fresh flavor of the hazelnuts I knew in my youth. So many of the hazelnuts I've tried here seem to have a large percentage of the nuts be rancid or something, and the overall flavor muted. Last time I made a hazelnut pie, I took to splitting open every nut and discarding the ones with dark brown centers. Helped a lot with avoiding bitter flavors, but it took a crazy long time. I know I'm not crazy in remembering the lovely hazelnut flavor from my youth because my relatives recently came back from a trip to Poland and brought back a bag of hazelnuts still in their shells from some random corner store, and their taste was just so beautiful. I miss my hazelnuts.
Hi Sylvia,
Holmquist Hazelnuts have a booth at Pike Place Market and an online store: https://www.holmquisthazelnuts.com. I regularly avoid hazelnuts because so many are stale, but I have enjoyed the free samples at their booth.
Thanks for the suggestion. I'm on it!
The hazelnuts _finally_ came in a couple days ago. I've been noshing on them since. I'm happy to report I haven't bit into a bad one yet! That's a big improvement over what I've been getting locally. I got both the rounder hazelnuts and the elongated ones (DuChilly?). Both roasted. The elongated ones have more interesting flavor. But neither have the "buttery" flavor I remember from childhood (1980's). Maybe if I bought them still in their shell, the flavor would be more alive? ...Dang, I've got some tough hazelnut standards. However, these hazelnuts will still be quite good for the hazelnut pie and nutella-like paste I want to make with them. And they are in the top spot for good hazelnuts I can easily enough get my hands on. That spot had been empty. So, thank you!
Check out https://nuts.com - they have hazelnuts in or out of the shell.
Why let the dough rest at room temp? Can I refrigerate the dough?
This was amazing! Just made enough for 2 of us. The dough was very hard to knead, but it was a wonderful project for the quarantine. Seared scallops go great with this!
I've made this a couple of times now as I love it. I multiply the sauce recipe 1.5x and use 250g dried papardelle to serve 3 as a main course. Crisped sage is a beautiful substitute for the marjoram. My happiest discovery? Adding a generous glug of Frangelico to the sauce and letting it reduce. Unbelievably good.
I make the 75 C egg as per the recipe, and the egg comes out perfect (though you have to accept that you'll lose the outermost layer of egg whites that stick to the shell).
This sounds amazing though I'd like to turn it into a main with a protein. Scallops somehow pop to mind any thoughts from anyonme who has made/eaten this?
I made this recently with a sous vide lamb neck and it was to die for. I omitted the egg, but even with lamb it was not overpowering at all.
What other nuts would you recommend using other than hazelnuts? I was thinking walnuts or perhaps pistachios?
Yep, walnuts, pistachios, pine nuts, and even macadamias. Black walnuts have a fruity quality that is unique.
