How to make transparent pasta parcels

by Klaus
(UK)

Hi Matt,

I am looking for a trick of making pasta parcels (ravioli or tortellini) transparent, so the colourful fillings are shine through.

I don't think there is egg in the pasta. Can you help?

Thanks!

Hi Klaus and thanks for your query,

I suggest you try making such pasta parcels with egg-free fresh pasta, as this is more translucent than normal, thicker egg pasta.

Egg-free pasta dough is made using a particular flour (durum wheat 'semolina' flour), water and a pinch of salt. You can find the recipe for it here: http://www.pasta-recipes-made-easy.com/vegan-pasta.html

And for ravioli making advice, try this section.

Any more questions, just let me know. Enjoy!

Matt.

PS: On the subject of fresh pasta Klaus, you might also find my pasta cookbook of interest, as this comes with printable versions of my fresh pasta making guides and exclusive downloadable videos of the same.
