        Please, in your own words, could you explain why this is agnolotti and not ravioli. Because I tried to find out the difference and there seems to be a lot of overlap.

          Agnolotti is made by folding a sheet of pasta over a filling, but ravioli is made by sandwiching the filling between two layers of pasta.

          They are super similar, but pasta types are a weird subject as there is a different definition depending on pretty much any variation in the preparation; e.g. The only difference between something like cavatappi and cellentani is that the latter has more ridges. They both have ridges, but somehow additional ridges is enough to garner a separate definition.

            Fair enough, I see one edge on these pasta bits in the image that is not like the other, indicating the fold. Good spot.

            lmao the last bit, as well. The Italians are picky about their pasta, and food, huh.

          It’s because it’s the title of the recipe I followed and I don’t care about specifying different types of stuffed pasta.

            But if you already knew… ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ

            I guess you don’t care, like you said.
