A bird nest

5 eggs, 3 1/2 cup all purpose bleached flour. wisk eggs and slowly incorporate flour.

Kneed for about 10 min. Wrap in plastic wrap and let sit for 30 min.

Divide dough and roll 2-3 times on each setting, until you get to the thinnest. For square ravioli, place dobs of filling on the bottom half of each sheet.

put a little egg wash along the bottom and fold the dough over. press down in the creases to remove the air and cut into squares. Press down around the edges with a fork to make sure a good seal.

Larger circular ravioli, place filling in middle of sheet.

Cut out circle around the sheet with filling, and matching circle to cover. I used a wine glass.

Egg wash around the edge, and pinch the two sheets together.

Tortellini, cut each sheet into 3-4cm squares, place small amount of filling in middle of each.

Roll by folding square into triangle, bringing the two far points together around your finger and rolling down the top point.

Sausage ravioli in sage butter.

Under cook the Tortellini and then finish cooking in sauce.

Tip:Do not attempt tortellini unless you are helped by someone who knows how to close them.If not done properly they will open while cooking

I have bad knees, so is it ok to "knead" the dough instead of "kneed"-ing it? Thanks!

Looks great. +1. My advice would be to use "Tippo 00" flour and it makes the pasta dough really elasticated.

BLEACHED flour?

11 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 1

looks tasy though

11 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Was thinking the same thing. Who the hell wants this.

11 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Bleached has less protein (gluten) and makes pasta come out less gummy.. If you have semolina though, definitely use that

11 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I know, right? Organic unbleached isn't that much more expensive and waaaaaay less nasty.

11 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

agreed! I have never seen the need for bleeched flour... Oh well love my organic stuff.

wisk eggs and slowly incorporate flour. the instructions are exactly NOT what is happening in the pictures...

11 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 1

Well actually it is. It's exactly what you do to go from #1 to #2, straight here on the table.

I have made home made ravioli for 30 people with a rolling pin... don't ever do that! For the love god, buy a pasta press!!!

There are rollers specifically for pasta. They look like a mini version of an old laundry mangle. Adjust them to thinner each time

Then swear the first time the sheet tears when you send it through. Mush it together.Try again.Tear again. Cry. Open a can of Chef Boyardee.

I like how you just "roll" over the hardest part of making the dough so thin and nice....

11 years ago | Likes 128 Dislikes 1

yeah egg-flour dough is hard as fuck :p

11 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

either you're ignorant or an out of touch chef because for average folk making dough and getting it that thin and nice is pretty advanced.

11 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Without the equipment sure, but if you've got a pasta roller it's simple (definitely not easy though, it takes a lot of work)

11 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

not sure why the aggressive tone is necessary? for hard I meant that the dough is "hard" , literally hard

11 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Pasta machine is the easiest way really

11 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 1

Knead a lot, let rest, pass through the pasta machine you can see in #9 and voilĂ ! It's really that easy.

11 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

And the sauce/filling just appeared from nowhere. I could have probably figured how to wrap stuff up myself.

everyone else is amazed with folding dough

11 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

indeed, doesn't anyone make anything by hand any more? (real question: don't poor people like me cook too?)

11 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

as an italian: that "machine" you see in the photo is fair play :p it has been sold for decades by now and even my grandma use it

11 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

having that just thin out the pasta is fine, it is still made with fresh ingredients and you can still consider it hand-made

11 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Seriously though a hand roller is not too expensive. $30 - $100 depending on quality.

11 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Pasta dough is incredibly hard to roll by hand. When I want to make my own ravioli, I go the easy route and use wonton wrappers.
