Apple Cabbage Ravioli In A Savory Herb Bacon Broth Recipes

Steps:

• Spread the bacon out in a large nonstick saute pan. Place over medium-high heat and cook until crispy, about 6 minutes per side. Remove the bacon and place on a paper towel-lined plate, leaving the fat in the pan. Once cool to the touch, crumble the bacon into bite-sized pieces.
• Reduce the heat to medium and add the cabbage to the pan. Cook, stirring frequently, until slightly wilted, about 4 minutes. Pour the apple juice, honey and vinegar around the sides of the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid has cooked off, 2 to 3 minutes more. Add the apples and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and 3/4 teaspoon black pepper. Toss to combine. Turn off the heat and stir in the scallions and crumbled bacon.
• Transfer to a serving platter and serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Mold the strips of bacon into a circular disk shape, then bake until crisp, about 15 minutes.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil and season with olive oil and fleur de sel.
• Brush 1 side of the pasta sheets with egg white. Cut out 1-inch squares of cheese and place in the center of the pasta sheet. Sprinkle juniper berry and black pepper on top. Seal the pasta with another sheet and press the edges together firmly. Use a 3-inch diameter circular cookie cutter to remove edges of the pasta to make the ravioli shape.
• Cook the ravioli for 5 minutes in boiling water and drain.
• Using a small pot, add the beef stock and season with olive oil and pepper. Bring to a boil.
• Create a cylinder shape using 1 cabbage leaf. Finely chop the other cabbage leaf and place in the center of the cabbage cylinder.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil over medium heat in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven. Add the bacon and cook and stir until most of the fat is rendered, and the bacon is lightly browned but still slightly limp, about 5 minutes. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon to a small bowl; do not drain. Pour off any excess bacon fat in the pan, according to your taste.
• Stir the onion into the pot, season with salt and pepper, and cook and stir over medium-high heat until onion is translucent. Sprinkle in the sugar, then stir in the vinegar-stand back or you'll get a nose full! Scrape up the delicious brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the cabbage, stirring well to combine.
• Cook, uncovered, until cabbage is reduced and starts to soften, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in apples, stock, and coriander seeds. Cover, reduce heat to medium low, and cook for at least 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add more stock as needed, and continue cooking until the cabbage is soft, but not falling apart.
• Just before serving, remove the cover and stir in the bacon with its juices. Cook over medium-high heat until any remaining liquid is reduced to a syrup and the mixture is piping hot, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in nutmeg, and fold in the sour cream. Your digestive tract will thank you.

Steps:

• Apple Cabbage Filling -- In a large saute pan, add the butter and bring to medium high heat. Add the onion and saute until lightly brown, just 3-4 minutes. Then add in the cabbage, water, salt and pepper; cover and simmer 10 minutes, stirring often. If needed, you can add a bit more water if it dries out. Finally, add in the apple and continue cooking (covered) for another 6-8 minutes until the apple is tender. Remove from the heat and let cool. Finally, add in the ricotta cheese and mix well until everything is combined.
• Ravioli -- Now, I use ravioli sheets which make this easy; and I made mine in triangles, but you can make squares if you prefer. Personally, I first cut mine in squares and lay all the squares out to make a little assembly line, this just works best for me. Then I add 1 heaping teaspoon of the filling in the center, brush the edge with egg white, and then fold over to make a triangle. I use a fork to seal the edges. Make sure to seal them well. You can also just use your fingers to seal the edge too if you prefer.
• I like to lay mine out on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and then very lightly dust with flour; cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1-2 hours before cooking. I just think they cook better after then have been chilled. You can also freeze them and use at a later date which works great.
• Broth -- Start your broth as it will take a bit longer than the ravioli. In a medium sauce pan, add the bacon and saute on medium heat until golden brown, then remove to a plate lined with a paper towel to let it drain. In the same sauce pan, pour out the drippings and wipe clean. Add in the garlic, broth and thyme, and bring to a boil. Reduce and let simmer 5 minutes. Then mix the cornstarch with the water to make a slurry and stir into the broth. Bring back up to a light boil until the sauce thickens. Remove from the heat and add the bacon in and stir to combine.
• Ravioli -- As the broth is simmering, bring a large pot of water to a light boil (medium heat) and add the ravioli. They don't take too long, about 5-8 minutes. The ravioli will begin to float when they are done.
• Serve -- I prefer to serve these in a large bowl so you can have the broth. Add 4-5 ravioli per dish and pour over the broth and top with grated swiss if you like. The swiss really is a nice accent to the dish. ENJOY!
