spelt pasta Archives -

I assure you that one year ago ravioli was at the very bottom on my list of recipes to prioritize. With all of the countless supermarket varieties out there, why bother? Lately though as I’ve been feeling rather disappointed with the store bought versions, determination suddenly welled up to make my own. I admit it had been a while since I used my pasta maker, even though after learning how to make my own spelt pasta I promised myself that I would make fresh pasta more frequently. But as I started using my hands to gently knead the dough together, molding it into a smooth round, and then rolling it through the machine, I was reminded of how satisfying and meditative the whole process can be. It’s slow and deliberate and so calming to the soul.
