Recipe Tips

Don’t overcook the ravioli; they cook quickly and should be tender but firm.

For extra flavor, add a splash of pasta water to your sauce to help it cling to the ravioli.

To make a quick browned butter sauce, melt butter in a skillet over medium heat until it turns golden brown and smells nutty, then drizzle over the ravioli.
