Buitoni Mozzarella Ravioli
What it is
These are fresh pasta pockets filled with creamy mozzarella cheese. The pasta is made with enriched flour and eggs, giving it a tender bite. The mozzarella filling provides a mild, milky flavor that melts beautifully when cooked. They are a convenient way to enjoy a classic Italian-inspired dish right at home. The ravioli are pre-portioned and ready for quick preparation.
How people cook with it
Ravioli are a versatile pasta shape that can be enjoyed with a variety of sauces and preparations.
- Tossed with marinara sauce
- Served with a light butter and sage sauce
- Added to a hearty meat sauce
- Mixed into a creamy Alfredo
To cook, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Gently add the ravioli to the boiling water, being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Stir them occasionally to prevent sticking. Cook for the time indicated on the package, usually just a few minutes, until they float to the surface and are tender. Drain the ravioli carefully, reserving some of the pasta water. Toss them immediately with your chosen sauce or a drizzle of olive oil to prevent them from clumping together.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to dried ravioli, fresh ravioli cook much faster and have a more delicate texture. The pasta itself is softer and more yielding. The cheese filling in fresh varieties often has a creamier consistency than that found in some dried or frozen options.
