What is your favorite ravioli filling?
What do you think would make a great ravioli filling?
I made pheasant & cheese and duck & cheese ravioli last night.
They were awesome. What do you think?

Pumpkin Filling
· 1 quart cooked pumpkin meat, strained over fine sieve overnight
· 1 clove garlic
· 6 amaretti cookies, crumbled
· salt and pepper to taste
We started with a homegrown sugar pumpkin, roasted at 350º until soft. Puree the pumpkin while still warm. Then strain overnight, and squeeze all excess liquids out. Add rest of ingredients and puree until smooth.
Spinach & Ricotta Filling
· 3/4 lb ricotta, strained over night
· 1/4 lb chevre
· 1 cup minced cooked spinach, drained and squeezed of any excess liquids
· salt and pepper
· 1/2 tsp nutmeg
Mix all ingredients thoroughly.
If you're lucky enough to find it, use 1-lb of sheep's milk ricotta instead of the regular ricotta+chevre mix which makes a tangy substitute. I found it at Whole Foods, but it was $16/lb! Needless to say, we used the more affordable mix in class. Ornellaia found some for about $7/lb at Lucca's and an impromptu taste test revealed the sheep's milk ricotta to be far smoother, with a subtly complex flavor.
Veal Filling
· 1 lb stewing veal, uncooked
· 1/2 lb mortadella
· 3 tbs shallots, chopped
· 1/2 tsp nutmeg
· salt and pepper
· 1 egg
· 3 tbs heavy cream
Puree in food processor.
Stewing veal can be shank, rump or shoulder. You can find humanely raised veal at Whole Foods & Lunardi's Market.
Mortadella is an Italian cold cut from Bologna. In this recipe, it adds flavor and bit of fat.

For the most part I only like meat filled raviolis. Poultry filled would be good too otherwise I am not a ravioli fan.

I bet the duck and cheese was wicked good. But i prefer seafood ravioli. Maybe a fresh halibut & cheese would be tasty.

Crab is wonderful. maximum ravioli filling is a few situation mixed with ricotta cheese as a binder. which you will basically combination crab parts with it, shrimp is stable, too. Duck...... All pre-cooked, of direction.

How about a mushroom filling" It is pretty good, with perhaps garlic and/or garlic, pesto and olive oil.
A 3 or 4 cheese filling, parmasan, ricotta, asiago, romano, etc.
