Preparation & Cooking

Making the Pasta Dough
In a large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour and salt. Create a well in the center and crack the eggs into the well. Gradually mix the flour into the eggs using a fork until a rough dough forms.

Kneading the Dough
Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Wrap in plastic wrap and let it rest for at least 30 minutes.

Rolling Out the Dough
After resting, divide the dough into four pieces. Roll out each piece into thin sheets using a pasta machine or rolling pin. Cut the sheets into smaller squares for ravioli.

Filling the Ravioli
Prepare your desired filling (e.g., ricotta cheese, spinach, herbs). Place a small spoonful of filling in the center of each pasta square. Moisten the edges with water and fold the pasta over to form a triangle. Press to seal.
