Ravioli Reminders

  • When working with fresh pasta, keep any pieces of dough waiting to be rolled out covered with a damp towel to prevent them from drying out. 
     
  • Less is more: Too-thick pasta will cook up gummy, so roll your dough out into sheets that are practically see-through. A pasta machine—plus the help of a friend—works best here. 
     
  • If you’re short on time, wonton wrappers can be used in place of fresh pasta dough. 
     
  • Want to get ahead of the game? Freeze uncooked ravioli in a single layer on a floured baking sheet until solid, then transfer to a freezer-safe plastic bag and store for up to two months. When ready to eat, boil as you would any other frozen pasta.
