The longest pasta sheet in the world, the record in Forlimpopoli – Italian Cuisine

The record to beat was 125 meters: it has been largely surpassed, with a super sheet of 177 meters and 72 centimeters

There puff pastry rolled with the longest rolling pin in the world: is the record achieved by the city of Forlimpopoli, in the province of Forlì – Cesena, in Emilia Romagna, during the Artusian party, which last week celebrated the 200th anniversary of the birth of the gastronome and writer Pellegrino Artusi.

The record to beat was 125 meters (achieved last year at Fico Eataly World in Bologna. The previous one, on the occasion of Expo 2015 in Milan) and has been largely exceeded, with a super sheet that measured 177 meters and 72 centimeters. The sfogline and sfoglini that gave their availability to try the international record were more than one hundred, from 96 year old lady, the oldest of all, to the girl of 15, the youngest: they kneaded eggs and flour (each had 6 eggs to roll out two meters of pastry) together with the volunteers who gave their availability, but also to the mayor Milena Garavini, the councilors, the first citizens of the past legislatures.

The members of the Mariette Association and their friends sfogline e sfoglini, in reality, would have managed to go well beyond almost 178 meters in length, but, in via Costa, where the world record was broken, there were not enough tables where to roll out all the fresh pasta that had been prepared.

In fact, in half an hour, the sheets were all pulled, then they were joined together to cover all the tables that had been set up to beat the record. But – it soon turned out – there was not enough place to put all the pasta. Volunteers and citizens tried to bring more tables, but even then there was not enough space for all the pastry that had been prepared. Thus began the measurement, which confirmed that not only the sfoglini di Forlimpopoli have broke the record previous, but they also achieved a truly remarkable record.

In Milan the challenge for the longest tiramisu in the world – Italian Cuisine

Coffee, biscuits and mascarpone cream. And here comes the Tiramisu, the most famous dessert in Italy, that much loved even outside our borders. As with almost all classic recipes, this also lends itself to innumerable variations. Some add the cream, those who prefer the Pavesini to the ladyfingers (and here the purists turn up their noses) and those who venture more creative versions. But it is tradition that always has the best with the original recipe.

In the meantime, in Milan, Galbani Saint Lucia challenges the Guinness World Records® with the Tiramisu the longest in the world together with the pastry chefs of the Teatro7 Cucina Lab and in collaboration with AADV Entertainment. The goal is to beat the current record of 266.9 meters. The mascarpone company will take place at the CityLife Shopping District of the Lombard capital, starting at 14.00 Saturday, March 16th.

It promises to be a spectacular event, the public will be able to attend the setting of the record-breaking Tiramisu, with the entertainment de La Pina, Diego and La Vale, unmistakable voices of Radio Deejay. Obviously, after having measured the record, at the end of the test it will be possible to taste a slice of the sweet symbol of Italian confectionery, following all the details on social networks with the official hashtag # TiramisùDaRecord.

There will not only be pure entertainment, but also solidarity. The tiramisu not consumed at the moment, will be packaged and distributed in the various Milanese cafeterias that support the most needy, thanks to the precious collaboration of Last Minute Market, which since 1998 supports companies and institutions in the recovery of food and its reuse for social purposes and that will make the event Zero Waste. Furthermore, Galbani in collaboration with the Food Bank, will donate all the ingredients for the creation of another 15,000 portions (equal to those estimated for the creation of the record Tiramisu) in the canteens of Lombardy, Tuscany and Emilia Romagna, thus symbolically sharing this special goal with the community and dedicating a moment of sweetness to those in difficulty.

"We decided to organize a great event for Milan with the most loved Italian dessert – tiramisu – he has declared Mauro Frantellizzi, Director of Marketing Galbani – launching the challenge at the Guinness World Record. A party that is also a solidarity event that, thanks to collaborations with Banco Alimentare and Last Minute Market, wants to bring a message of trust towards the next".
