Talk:Cannelloni

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Surely this page and the page for manicotti should be merged? --Hjsb

Surely; I'll merge them now. --Toby Bartels 00:42, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

Surely there should be a recipe for cannelloni on this page - G.J.O.

I'm not changing anything here, but my italian grandmother says that manicotti and cannelloni are two different things. Either way, delicious. :-D - T.Callahan

I've always known them to be 2 different things as well, with cannelloni being closer to crepes. Pnkrockr 16:27, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm yummy

So, what's the difference between "cannoli" and "cannelloni"?

a cannoli is a sweet dessert with a crispy outside shell

cannelloni is a crepe that is not boiled, ever. It is rolled with the filling in the middle and baked

manicotti is a round tube pasta that is boiled, stuffed and baked

any variations are not the classical version of the recipie --Travis0055 01:48, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

If cannelloni and manicotti are two different foods, why are they in one article? If we're going to do that, surely it shouldn't be named after one or the other. 134.88.151.168 (talk) 21:37, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] manicotti is NOT "little muffins"

Little sleeves would be 'manichetta', so this actually is a "cutification" of manica.--71.207.222.12 (talk) 19:32, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
