No work today, so I took the opportunity to make some things I haven't made for a while. First up, a batch of pasta dough to make home made ravioli this evening. Second, some focaccia, to eat with the ravioli.
And now I'm thinking about ravioli filling. I have a small amount of roasted squash from Sunday; some ricotta cheese from DH's latest cheesemaking exploits; I've got the last of the belly pork; and some mushrooms which need using up. I think I might start by cooking the muchrooms in garlic butter, I can then perhaps blend them with some pork, and (separately) some of the ricotta. I can mix the squash and ricotta together... hmm. Need to see what this all tastes like, I think.
I usually use a largish ravioli mould, but I bought some giant ravioli stamps to make giant ravioli, so I might have a go with those for a change..
I'll see what inspiration strikes.
