    Way back when this 74 yr. old woman was about 11, my Italian-American mom and 5 of her 6 sisters spent most of one day and evening making a variety of homemade pastas with their mom (my Nonna, who barely spoke any English). They worked hard, and as each batch was finished, they laid the pasta out on a sheet on the couch, then covered it up with another sheet, and laid another batch on top, until they had about 7 layers of pasta stacked on top of one another from one end of the couch to the other. My Aunt Maggie and her husband, Uncle T, were living with Nonna then. Uncle T was a bread delivery man, so worked late and got home in the wee hours of the morning. When Uncle T got home early that morning, it was still relatively dark in the house . As he tip-toed through the living room, he spied the couch with all the “bedding” on it. Figuring my Aunt Maggie didn’t want him disturbing her sleep and so had fixed up the couch for him, he went to sleep on the couch! He was awoken a few hours later by my aunt screaming and my Nonna cursing in Italian! He had slept on their pasta! Of course, the pasta was fairly smooshed, but the aunts and Nonna were able to salvage most of it (not so much the raviolis, as the insides all squished out!). When Uncle T told this story, he always added that, though he didn’t get to sleep very long, and almost had a heart attack when they woke him up, it was in fact one of the best sleeps he’d ever had! 😂

    As an Italian, fresh pasta does not need to be al necessarily dente, as the egg in the dough make it firmer even if cooked a bit longer (on the contrary of dry pasta that is only flour and water, which if overcooked will be soggy and musht), and as a personal preference I would have made the dough a bit thinner. Nonetheless great job on making ravioli for the first time, is one of my favourite pastas to make!!!

      A positive Italian? That's kinda rare when it comes to the cooking of foreigners lol
      But I totally agree. Doesn't always have to be hard or perfect. Starting out when making fresh pasta is hard and perfection isn't always needed. I also agree on a little thinner pasta personally, yet a bit more bite could work really well with a soft filling like that.

    I might have cooked the ravioli a minute longer, cutting one in half with the side of my fork to check. "When it floats" is the rule for unstuffed pasta, but you have to consider the stuffing. They held their shape while cooking, though, and that's major.

  • @TheBookDoctor
    @TheBookDoctor ปีที่แล้ว +233

    Not bad, Jamie! Only suggestion is that when you're pressing the individual raviolis, start with the one in the middle of the line. Push the air out towards the ends of the line. The air needs somewhere to go, and starting in the middle gives the air the shortest path to an exit.

  • @ilVinc88
    @ilVinc88 ปีที่แล้ว +17

    to answer your question: that's not al dente, it's undercooked because your pasta is too thick.
    when making ravioli (tortelli, etc...) you want to use the thinnest setting on your machine, this way you get a better texture and it will cook more evenly.
    just remember that only dry pasta can be al dente, egg fresh pasta should be soft and well cooked.
    have fun! 😊

    I made fresh ravioli for my girlfriend and she claims I hadn't made it for her in the previous 13 years, so she was surprised. I just mixed my dough by hand in a bowl instead of the volcano technique. And since I don't have a pasta machine I just rolled the dough out thin with a rolling pin. Spinach and feta for the filling, and a san marzano tomato sauce with crumbled sausage. Turned out pretty nice for no practice in 13 years! :)

      Tradition is all well and good, there are definitely a lot of things to be learned from the past, but they also didn't live in a time where you had access to a lot of modern ingredients, methods, techniques, etc. Often, the most iconic foods of a culture are the ones where somebody took something relatively traditional and changed it with ingredients that they recently gained access to. For example, Italian cuisine was relatively similar to the rest of the Mediterranean until it got access to ingredients from the new world like tomatoes, peppers, potatoes, etc, which created a lot of the modern dishes that they are famous for now.
      Tradition is a guide, but not a goal in and of itself. Tradition and authenticity should be where you start, not your metric of quality. A lot of traditions are objectively not the best way to do something, were based on false information or information that is no longer true, or simply don't fit the situation you find yourself in in the modern-day. You should make food that you like, not food that your ancestors would have liked. If those two things happen to be the same, then more power to you.

      It's all a matter of latitude, olives don't grow well above emilia-romagna. In the north the climate is continental, with harsher winters which tend to kill olive trees, but meat and dairy farms have always been abundant, that's why most of the traditional dishes in the north are butter-based instead of olive oil-based.
      A similar reason why most traditional deserts in the south don't usually contain a lot of cream or buttery layers, but more elements like almond/pistachio paste and honey

      The Appennini mountains are pretty much the line that divides oil and butter users, probably a lot more in the past because butter got a bad rep for health reasons after the ‘80s.

      One of those “I know my way around a kitchen” moments when you master delicious homemade pasta.
      Your dough may have been a level too thick for the Al dente time instructions. Doubling up on homemade dough, as in a ravioli, requires about a minute longer to make sure that thickness is cooked to chewy and not a bit raw on the thickest parts. Unlike dry, packaged pasta, homemade will keep its silky body in hot water longer.

  • @pixelrancher
    @pixelrancher ปีที่แล้ว +44

    I find the best way to NOT have leakage is to gather in the flour from the wet side of the pile of flour rather than pushing the flour into the eggs from the outside in. Just pull a bit of flour in with the tines of the fork as you're incorporating the flour into the eggs, a little at a time.
    As for doneness, better a bit "over done" than under. Al dente is usually reserved for non-stuffed pasta - and most often, dried not fresh. Fresh pasta will cook faster than most fillings will get up to temperature so err on the filling side rather than the pasta. No one likes a cold interior!
    For a first kick at the can, you've done an excellent job. Looked better than what I've been served at some "pro-level" restaurants.

    I have a fond childhood memory of helping my grandparents’ Italian immigrant neighbors on pasta making day. It was a family affair, and a neat cultural lesson in community, food making, and food eating. We made spaghetti and raviolis they would freeze and would use over the course of a few months until next pasta making day. I was in charge of the ravioli cutter and it was a highly satisfying job! When we were done for the day, they made us a wonderful meal in thanks of the help, using the very pasta we made that day. It really was a special experience, and your video has heartwarmingly reminded me of the memory. I may just have to go get my very own Chromio Alfredo...

    If the ravioli didn't taste raw, then it pretty much wasn't raw. Fresh pasta cooks so quickly that by adding the extra minute after it was floating, you can feel pretty confident that it was cooked. Looked delicious actually and you did a great job making the ravioli. I have a ravioli attachment for my pasta machine that I often use and I also have a ravioli board (I am a kitchen gadget freak). I have the pasta crimper too, so maybe next time I will do it just on a flat surface and see how it comes out. Honestly the pasta machine ravioli maker is a bit of a pain and doing it the way you did it or on a ravioli board both are much easier.

I've used a food processor before and there's no appreciable difference between using it or mixng by hand. But the more I make pasta, the more I do it by hand.

    As many have said, when you make stuffed fresh pasta you wanna roll your sheet as thin as you can, because you're gonna eventually end up with two layers on top of each other. Now how do you know that your pasta sheet is thin enough? Here's a trick I've seen zdore (the pasta makers from Emilia Romagna, the region of tortellini and tagliatelle) use: they roll their sheet on tablecloths, typically so that the pasta doesn't stick to the surface and they don't have to add more flour which would make it drier, and when they can clearly see the tablecloth pattern through the pasta sheet, then it's thin enough. You can keep rolling your pasta with Cromeo, and when it's getting thin you can place it on a patterned tablecloth to check if it's see-through enough.
    As an Italian, I can't tell you how proud I am that you're cooking our recipes the way they are supposed to be cooked.

    The sweet potatoes, curb and cooked four minutes each side in the microwave so long as you prick them first. I’m so glad that you discovered pasta.

    In Lombardy there is a similar recipe, it’s with pumpkin and amaretti! Very on the sweet side, no prosciutto added but if you like the idea, go on and try it! You did very well, fresh pasta doesn’t have any secrets for you now! As many said, when the ravioli will floats, give them some seconds more. They will taste even better (adding parsley wasn’t a bad idea, we eat those ravioli with butter and sage usually so, your intuition was quite right😎)

    I think one of the only ways to truly have an Al Dente 'bite' in your pasta is with the use of semolina flour & water. Regular flour & egg pasta probably won't get there, as the egg will help make it firm, so it isn't really necessary to worry about! Wonderful job!!!! 🙌

    if you wanna find when the pasta is ready, you can do some simple fresh pasta, like noodles, and while boiling them, keep tasting them every other half minute. you will find pretty easily at what point exactly they are done to your liking.
    Timing pasta should always just be used as a ballpark figure anyways, so you should always cook them while tasting them.

    My inspiration for finally making my own pasta was seeing a recipe for tortelli piacentini. All those beautifully folded and filled little tortelli in the photos were so gorgeous. I managed them on my second foray into making pasta, and it was so incredibly satisfying as well as delicious. I wish I had the opportunity to pull out my pasta machine more often, cause homemade pasta is wonderful.

And that sauce....perfection on perfection. Your skills have improved by leaps and bounds. You should now experiment with different fillings like mushroom/walnut/truffle, or spinach/ricotta/parm, sausage/onion/parm/sage, or how about lobster(or crab)/roasted garlic/lemon? YUM! 🥟🥟🥟

    Sometimes I find it easier to just mix the flower and eggs in the bowl with a spoon. Once it comes together, I end up dumping it out and kneading it.

    Italians all over the world are watching you. We are veeeeery suspicious of foreigners cooking our recipes (as mostly they try to make them "better" which drives us crazy). You did good! Next time make the dough thinner and maybe (just maybe!) it was a tiny little bit too dry, so you might use a bit less flour. The more you make pasta, the better you feel how it should be. Fresh pasta needs just a few minutes.

    • @mygirldarby

      Imagine how the Asians felt when the Italians "improved upon" their noodles and called it...macaroni! Well, they called it pasta, but I couldn't resist the yankee doodle reference. Italian pasta likely originated from Asian noodle-making. Humans always improve on things we learn, and we always put our own unique twist on things. It's how we are, and it's why we are so good at innovating and inventing.

    Rule of thumb is when it floats, it is ready. However, maybe put the lid on while boiling (to ensure the contents of the ravioli are cooked). Takes about 4 to 6 min - so you have the time about right.

    If it were _me_ I would have rolled the pasta out a little thinner for ravioli. But that doesn't seem to be a common comment, so perhaps I'm alone there.
    However, I would also agree with a couple of much more common feedback items here, which are that "al dente" is really for dried pasta; but you also shouldn't feel obligated to achieve it anyway: make your pasta how you like it!

    That looks awesome. If you don't like it as firm as it was you might try going one or two settings thinner on your roller.

I feel like the dough thickness matters much much more than the cooking time. For what that's worth!

  • @shawnhampton8503

    Bravo, Jamie! The tiny thin white layer in the middle shows that it is still not quite cooked. With fresh pasta this is not as obvious since you are beginning with a soft dough, rather than dried pasta. But the white layer means cook it about another minute or so.
