RavioliWe have been assisting one of our members in making ravioli - start to finish. But now let’s address this common ravioli problem: They break open leaking all of their luscious contents into your pot of water. So how do you prevent ravioli from falling apart?

There are two tricks. First while making the ravioli take care to not have any excess air in the pockets.  The air expands in the hot water and will cause the ravioli to burst. So carefully seal the dough to fit the filling as exactly as possible.

Second, cook the ravioli in moderately - not vigorously - boiling water. Vigorously boiling water beats up what are essentailly fragile dough packets and they’re more inclined to break open.
