703.0. "Ravioli Fillings Please" by RDGE43::BARKER (Life on the Ocean Wave...) Thu Sep 10 1987 11:33

    I have just received a fresh Pasta maker which makes flat sheets
    of pasta ( ie Lasagne ) or Taglietelli (sp?) and it comes
    complete with a Ravioli mould.
    
    I have tried the conventional Beef, Tomato & Herbs filling
    ( similar to Heinz tinned Ravioli without the tomato sauce and
     10 million times nicer), but does anyone know any more interesting
    fillings ??
    
    Thanx in advance

RE: Note 703.1 by DARTS::LRP 


Grate cheese, fold into ricotta, add 2 tablespoons chopped
parsley (fresh of course - or less dried) and mix well...

	Don't forget the parsley!!

703.5spinach, chicken, cheese fillingCLT::DAVISTue Dec 08 1987 01:3014
    I use this filling when I make homemade tortellini's (and it do
    taste good...), so I'm sure it would be good in raviolis--use best 
    judgement on proportions...this fills about 40 tortellini's.  
    
    1 med. boneless, skinless chicken breast, cooked and minced
    5 oz. fresh spinach, cleaned, cooked, squeezed very dry and minced
    2 oz. (about 6 thin slices) prosciutto, minced
    1 egg
    2-4 (to taste) TBLS freshly grated parmesan cheese
    1-2 TBLS whipping cream    
    1/4 TSP each salt and pepper
    
    --Combine chicken, spinach, prosciutto and egg in bowl; mix well.
    --Add cheese, cream, s & p, mix well and fill pasta.    
703.6Smoked salmon, dill sauceCOLORS::INGMANNJust a loop of lazy lightningMon Dec 28 1987 15:465
    
    Here at the cafeteria (yes, Tobins!) they made tortellini with
    smoked salmon filling with a dill sauce. Delicious! Sorry, don't
    have a recipe, though.
    
703.8TLE::EIKENBERRYDon't confuse activity with productivityTue Jul 30 1991 15:2412
  My husband gave me a ravioli attachment for our pasta machine - one of the
hand-crank models.

  We tried it last night, with marginal success.  The raviolis would look
great when they came out of the machine - nice pillows of filling in the 
middle.  But, after cooking, the "pillows" had become pretty flat.  Is this
expected?  It makes sense that they would flatten somewhat, since the pasta
dough expands when it cooks... How can we get them to be thicker when cooked?

  Thanks,

	--Sharon
