The closest thing I can think of is
breadsticks, but I have difficulty imagining
eating a bowl of boiled breadsticks in tomato
sauce or pesto.
It would make for a thicker ravioli, but
lighter. *Not dense, like it would be
if you merely increased the thickness
of the pasta.
There's probably some good reason why
this wouldn't work at all, for example
maybe it would disintegrate in boiling
water.
It would just float off and fall apart in the water. Bread isn't made
to be boiled.
Tell that to the bagel cooks!
