Istrian Fuzi with sepia ink

Fuži are traditional pasta from Istria. Klara Maric's pasta is handmade. It is rolled out into a thin layer, which is cut into strips three to four centimeters wide. The strips are then partially colored with spepia, placed on top of each other and cut diagonally into diamonds. Two ends of each diamond are folded over each other so that it looks like a loop. KlaraM noodles are not pressed into molds because the noodle dough loses quality when pressed. Rolling gives the noodles permeability, while maintaining their nutritional value. They are made from durum wheat and fresh eggs.

Sepia is a brown to gray-black dye that is obtained from the squid's ink bag. The Fuži are dried and can be transported without refrigeration. Boil in slightly salted water, according to the package information.
