3 Cheese Ravioli Recipes

Steps:

• bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Mix the three cheeses together. Working on a clean, floured surface, lay down a single wonton wrapper and place a spoonful of the cheese mixture in the center. Paint the edges of the wonton wrapper with egg whites, then top with another wonton wrapper. Press firmly around the edges to secure the filling. Repeat to create 24 ravioli.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the tomatoes and garlic for 5 to 7 minutes until the tomatoes are lightly colored and about to burst. Use a fork to lightly crush a few tomatoes. Add the basil and remove from heat.
• Salt the boiling water and turn to a gentle boil. Carefully drop the ravioli in and cook for three minutes, then drain. Divide among four plates and top each with tomatoes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F or preheat grill over high heat.
• Toss the peppers with some oil, place on a baking sheet, and roast in the oven until blackened. Turn them over, blacken on the second side, and remove to cool. Alternatively, blacken on a grill in the same manner. Gently remove the skins and seeds; do not rinse with water. Place in a food processor bowl and pulse to puree. Scrape down sides and pulse a few more times.
• Add to the processor bowl 1 egg, 2 1/2 teaspoons olive oil, and salt; pulse to combine. Add in 12 ounces of the semolina and pulse to combine. A dough ball should start to form after 6 to 7 pulses. If the mixture is too wet, add more semolina until a dough ball forms. Process for 1 minute and turn the dough out onto a lightly semolina-floured cutting board. Sprinkle with a little more semolina and knead for 2 to 3 minutes. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and allow to rest at room temperature for 30 to 45 minutes.
• Prepare a work area for rolling out the pasta: a large cutting board, all-purpose bench flour, large sheets of plastic wrap, dough blade or knife, small amount of water, and a pastry brush.
• Cut a 1/2-inch thick piece of the dough from the ball and shape into an oval, making sure that the dough isn't wider than the width of the pasta roller. Process through the pasta machine by folding the dough into thirds, feed through the rollers on level 1, and repeat until the dough is smooth, elastic, and in an even shape. Add more flour or a sprinkle of water, if necessary, to adjust the consistency of the dough. Continue rolling out through level 9, without folding, and cutting the sheets into 12 to 14-inch long pieces as needed. Wrap carefully and individually in plastic wrap; it's okay to layer. Repeat until the dough is used up.
• Combine the cheeses with the pepper and whisk in 2 eggs. On a clean, lightly semolina-floured surface lay out a sheet of pasta. With a round tablespoon measure, lightly press some cheese mixture into the measuring spoon and "thonk" with your finger gently onto the sheet, spacing them 1 1/2 inches apart. Lightly brush beaten eggs around the cheese. If the dough is wide enough you can fold it over the cheese, or if it's thinner in width, center the cheese spacing and add a top sheet. Start at the center and gently compress around the cheese to push out any air. Cut between the raviolis with a bench scraper, knife, or pizza cutter. Dust raviolis lightly with semolina flour and set on a cookie rack; repeat until all the raviolis have been made. Reserve the extra cheese for garnish.
• Bring a large pot of water to boil over high heat and add 1 tablespoon kosher salt. When ready, add the raviolis gently into boiling water, pressing into the water as needed, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the water, drain, and add to the Chardonnay Cream Sauce. Place into a serving dish and drizzle some of the Basil Oil. Sprinkle with a bit of the remaining cheese, the minced parsley, and serve immediately.
• In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, add the butter and when foamy, add the shallots and cook for 5 to 6 minutes. Add the chardonnay and the salt and pepper and bring to a boil. Allow to simmer for 10 minutes. Add the cream and combine well. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for 10 to 15 minutes; the mixture will thicken slightly. Hold warm until service. Adjust seasonings as needed.;
• Prepare an ice bath of ice and water. Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat, add the basil leaves, and cook for 10 seconds. Remove immediately to the ice bath. When cool, transfer to a salad spinner or strainer and remove water.
• Add the leaves and oil into a blender and pulse to puree. Scrape down the sides and pulse a few more times. Strain the mixture through 4 layers of rinsed cheesecloth into a sterile canning jar (16-ounce size is good). This process will take about an hour.
• Refrigerate unused portion for up to 1 week.

Steps:

• in a large bowl, mix all ingredients.
• For large ravioli place 1 tbsp of mixture on sheet of pasta per ravioli square. For small ravioli, place 1 tsp of mixture per ravioli square.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook ravioli in boiling water for 8 to 10 minutes, or until done; drain.
• Heat olive oil in large skillet over medium heat. Saute onion and bell peppers until tender. Add one cup of the broth, season with pepper flakes, and simmer 5 minutes. Stir in remaining broth, and cook until most of broth has evaporated. Spoon pepper mixture over ravioli.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients well.
• Keep in the fridge until you are ready to make the ravioli.

Steps:

• In a small bowl combine goat cheese, blue cheese, 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese, the potato and two eggs. Mix well and add 2 tablespoons each of chervil and chives. Season to taste with salt and pepper and refrigerate.
• Dust a work surface with semolina flour and roll out half the pasta dough by hand or by machine, making a strip about 30 inches long and 5 inches wide. Lightly beat the remaining egg and brush the strip halfway along its length with half the beaten egg. Put heaping teaspoons of the cheese mixture on the dough that has been brushed with the egg, making 12 mounds of the mixture about 2 1/2 inches apart.
• Cover with the plain half of the dough by folding it back along its length and press the dough down around each mound. Using a cookie cutter or a knife, cut 3-inch rounds or squares and arrange the cut ravioli on a tray dusted with semolina. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. (The ravioli may be frozen.)
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add the olive oil.
• While water is coming to a boil, bring chicken stock to a simmer in a medium to large saucepan and season with pepper. Whisk in the butter and cook about 5 minutes, until slightly thickened. Remove from heat.
• Add a little salt to the boiling water; add the ravioli, reduce heat to medium and cook ravioli for 5 minutes. Remove ravioli with a slotted spoon and drain on clean towel.
• Reheat the sauce and stir in the sage, marjoram and remaining chervil. Stir in the remaining Parmesan cheese and season to taste with salt and pepper. Add the cooked, drained ravioli to the sauce; simmer a minute or two, and then spoon the ravioli into four warm bowls, spooning the sauce over each. Garnish with a sprig of chervil and serve at once.

Steps:

• For the Pasta:.
• For our family of 5 I use 4 cups four and 4 eggs and a pinch of salt, and we eat it all! Rule of thumb for pasta is one large egg to one cup of flour and a pinch salt.
• Directly on the kitchen counter pile your flour and make a well in the centre. Crack the eggs into the well and top with pinch of salt. Using a fork, scramble the egg and slowly incorporated the flour until you have mixed all the egg with all the flour and have a very stiff dough. It needs to be very firm, don't worry if it feels tough. Knead the pasta dough until even on a lightly floured surface, adding more flour until the dough no longer sticks to the surface. Set aside and make you filling.
• At this point, if you have a pasta machine to roll the dough out and stretch it, great, it not, you can use a rolling pin with equal success. Divide dough into smaller balls and begin rolling on a lightly floured surface. Roll until the pasta is very thin, and no longer contracts back into itself. This is called "Breaking" the dough. When you have reached this point, you can cut the pasta into the shapes you would like, place the filling inside (a spoonful for ravioli) Close and seal the pasta. Set aside on a lightly floured surface until all are ready to cook. Cook in boiling salted water for 2 minutes (or less) when the filled pasta shapes float. Remove to a buttered dish and when all shapes have been cooked, pour over the sauce, and serve.
• For the filling:.
• In a medium bowl, combine all the ingredients and combine well and evenly. Adjust seasoning to taste. Either place by teaspoonful onto ravioli shapes, or use to fill canneloni tubes. I have even used this stirred through Macaroni noodles!
• For the sauce:.
• Empty the tomatoes into a saucepan and heat gently. When thoroughly heated through, add the whipping cream and heat through. Do not boil or the cream will curdle. If you are making Ravioli, or pasta shapes, pour over, mix gently and serve. If you are making the stuffed canneloni, pour over the stuffed pasta grate over extra edam cheese and parmesan cheese, and place in the oven. Bake at 350 until heated through, the pasta soft, and the sauce gently bubbling.
