How people cook with it
Ravioli are a versatile pasta shape that can be dressed in a variety of sauces or enjoyed in soups.
- Tossed with marinara sauce
- Served with pesto
- Added to broth for soup
- Drizzled with butter and herbs
To prepare, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Carefully add the ravioli to the boiling water, ensuring they do not stick together. Stir gently to prevent them from settling on the bottom of the pot. Cook for the time indicated on the package, usually a few minutes, until the ravioli float to the surface and the pasta is tender. Drain the ravioli well before serving with your chosen sauce or preparation.

This ravioli differs from fresh, homemade versions in its texture and shelf life. Pre-made ravioli are often firmer and may have a slightly different dough consistency due to the manufacturing process and preservatives. They are designed for convenience and longer storage compared to freshly made pasta.
