Nothing is quite as special as homemade pasta. A soft, chewy, and tender dough that melts in your mouth regardless of the sauce you pair with it. `
Homemade ravioli, however, is on a whole other level. You don’t only smother it in any sauce of your choice, but you have endless varieties of fillings.
My choice? A creamy and rich sweet potato filling topped with silky smooth white sauce infused with tarragon and garlic and sprinkled with toasted pine nuts, more fresh tarragon, and freshly cracked pepper. It really is a mouthwatering combo.
Making ravioli from scratch may seem intimidating, but I assure you it is way simpler and easier than you think.
I go the easier route and use my ravioli cutter opposed to cutting it by hand.
Start by rolling out a piece of dough in your pasta maker or by hand. Place a thin sheet of dough over the ravioli cutter, spoon in filling into the divets, place another sheet of dough on top and use the rolling pin to cut them into squares. Viola, you’re done! There are also plenty of youtube videos and tutorials on how to roll and cut ravioli, so don’t be afraid to get a little educated beforehand!…
