Ravioli

Ravioli recipes date back to the 14th century, when they were first mentioned in an Italian cookbook. These early recipes were quite simple, calling for little more than flour, water and egg to make the dough, and filling them with cheese or vegetables.

It wasn’t until the 16th century that ravioli began to be associated with the city of Rome. At this time, the popular filling became meat, and the dish was often served with a tomato sauce.

Today, ravioli is enjoyed all over the world, in a variety of different recipes. While the classic meat and tomato sauce is still a popular option, there are endless possibilities when it comes to fillings and sauces. Whether you prefer your ravioli simple or dressed up, there’s a recipe out there for you.

Advice

Making ravioli is a fun and rewarding experience. To get the most out of the process, it is important to have the right tools and ingredients. Make sure to have plenty of flour and semolina on hand for rolling out the dough, as well as a good quality pasta machine for rolling the dough to the desired thickness. Additionally, have all of your desired fillings on hand, such as ricotta cheese, mushrooms, spinach, or whatever you choose. Lastly, it is important to use a good quality egg to bind the dough together and to make sure that the edges of the ravioli are sealed properly. With these tips, you should be able to make delicious and flavorful ravioli with ease.
