The Strategy
Creating delicate, home-style filled pasta is wonderfully simple when you use thin wrappers as a shortcut. Ensuring a tight, damp seal around the edges keeps the savory chicken and cheese filling safely tucked inside during their hot bath. These tender little pockets float to the top when they're ready to be tossed in a warm sauce.
Technique Summary
Delicate wonton wrappers make assembling homemade ravioli quick and easy for a cozy weeknight supper. A secure crimping technique keeps the creamy filling intact during a quick boil.
Chef’s Checkpoints
- Press the edges with a fork until they look crimped and feel completely sealed.
- The ravioli will float to the surface of the water when they are cooked through.
