Knead the dough and rest it for 20 minutes, until flexible enough to roll thin.
Roll the dough thin, wrap it around molds, and seal the edge with egg white.
Fry the shells in 175°C oil for 4 minutes, then cool completely.
Beat the ricotta and powdered sugar for 2 minutes, draining the filling if it is watery so it does not soften the shells.
Pipe the filling into the cold shells just before serving and decorate the ends.
💡 Tip: Fill the shells just before serving; filled early, they soften quickly.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Dip the ends in pistachios to serve.
