rmd | okay, oregano-less or otherwise... (Reply)

last nite claudia and i made ravioli. there was no oregano in the filling, but other than that, it was full of tasty ravioli-filling goodness.. (ricotta cheese, eggs, parmesan cheese, basil, garlic -- this seemed a safe bet for my first attempt at homemade ravioli). the dough came out really really good -- the best pasta dough i've made so far, i think -- i think because it was a straight half and half mix of semolina and all purpose wheat flour.

we were using a ravioli mold, and it took a few tries for us to debug the process. oiling the mold piece helped a lot with getting the ravioli out. also, i think i'd do better with a wooden rolling pin instead of my marble one for rolling the ravioli closed.

verdict: very very tasty.
