About Cannelloni au Brocciu
Corsica Tourism presents cannelloni au brocciu et aux herbes as a traditional Corsican dish. This rendition uses fresh sheep’s-milk brocciu, chard leaves and mint in the filling, with milk covering the filled pasta.
Brocciu and egg bind the greens, onion and fresh herb into a creamy filling. Salt and pepper season it, while grated cheese adds another dairy layer over the milk-covered cannelloni.
The filled pasta tubes sit together in an ovenproof dish beneath their cheese topping. The recipe offers several herb, green and sauce choices; this named milk rendition keeps the brocciu and chard at its centre.
