Oh boy, I've been waiting all week for National Ravioli Day!!! Yum. My husband, Stephen, grew up in a big Italian family. He's the youngest of 14 kids. On ravioli day, his mother would line up the kids and create an assembly line to make the ravioli. One child rolled out the dough, one child (old enough to handle a knife) cut the dough into squares. Another child would spoon the filling onto the squares of dough and the next one would place another square of pasta on top of the filling. My husband's job was to put the finishing touches on the ravioli. He would seal in the filling by pressing the edges of the raw pasta together with a fork. Unfortunately, my husband retired the fork a long time ago. I keep hoping someday he'll make ME some homemade ravioli. Since most people don't have 14 kids to help make homemade ravioli, I'm NOT going to share a recipe that would require you to break out your rolling pin and round up the neighbors kids. However, I would like to repost my recipe for homemade meat sauce. The best part is you won't need a house full of kids to do it...the slow cooker will do the work. Homemade sauce makes frozen ravioli shine. Slow Cooker Meat SauceThis sauce even past the Italian Sisters-in-law test. slow-cooker-classic-meat-sauce.htmlgoodlookinggrub.weebly.com/recipes/slow-cooker-classic-meat-sauce I hope you enjoyed this post.
