Ravioli Amari

Ingredients Durum-wheat flour, salt, and formerly a few eggs but more usually water. For the filling, ricotta and marjoram or sometimes mint.

How Made The flour is sifted onto a wooden board and kneaded for a long time with salt and eggs or water until a firm, smooth dough forms. After resting, the dough is rolled out with a rolling pin into a thin sheet. The sheet is cut into 3-inch (7.5-cm) squares, and a spoonful of filling is placed in the center of each square. The raviolo is then folded into a triangle and boiled in plenty of salted water.
