Directions:Make dough: Put the flour and salt in a food processor. Add the butter and pulse until the flour has the texture of rough cornmeal. With the machine running, slowly add the water. Gather the dough into a ball and place on a floured surface. Knead lightly, just until the dough is smooth. Divide in half and keep one-half covered while you work with the other.
Make Filling: In large bowl, combine ricotta, mozzarella, Parmesan, the eggs, salt, pepper, and parsley; beat with wooden spoon to blend well.
Form Ravioli: Roll out the dough to 1/8-inch thickness into strips about 4 inches wide. Using a tablespoon, place mounds of filling 1-1/2 to 2-inches apart down the center of the dough. Brush a little water across the top and bottom of the strip and between the mounds of filling. Place another 4-inch wide strip of dough over the top. Press the dough down around the mounds of filling to seal. Cut the ravioli into rounds or squares using a ravioli cutter, pastry cutter, or a knife. |
