Ravi-avi-oli!

Well considering the Beef Wellington came and went without much of a challenge, this month the gals and I decided to step it up a notch! Seems a little intense to some but for our little group of domestic goddesses it was really quite simple! The task at hand: homemade ravioli! And even better still homemade sauce! Hardcore? I know! Making the dough seemed easy enough but when it came to rolling the dough...well that's when things got interesting!



After watching a video of an Italian grandma demonstrate her skills, we took some of her tips and got to it! We split the dough into different sections which made the rolling process so much easier! Getting the dough thin enough was hard but a few sore thumbs later and we had it all worked out! We even made a batch of gluten free ravioli! Now that is cooking!



Once the rolling, cutting, stuffing and concealing was done the little beauties were ready to boil! I was nervous that our forked edges would not keep the cheese filling inside but to our pleasant surprise they all cooked up nicely!



Even after some last minute experimenting with the sauce we were all pleased with the end result! YUMMY! Although presentation has a ways to go I think we pulled off another masterpiece! The kitchen was a mess but it was well worth it! And no worries...plans for next months dinner are already in motion! Stayed tuned for more cooking wonders from the three of us gals because personally I think we are basically pros by now! ;)
