The preperation for this feast involves 7+ people, 1 person's recipes (Mommom's)
and a Month of preperation.
So Here is the famous secret filling! Kidding its no secret, just really really good! I was the filling mixer here. 6lbs of Ricotta, 6 eggs, salt pepper and parsley! It's that easy.
So, once the kneading was done, the rolling began!
We go from #1 all the way to #6.
This gets the pasta to the perfect thickness to hold the filling w/out breaking.
Yup, that's me again.
Once the pasta was rolled, we had to fill them.
Mom did a great job!
You fill then cut using the Italian crinkle cutter knife, which makes the edges look so very pretty.
Here we have Mommom!
Now this is important because this is her recipe!
She has to count them all and lets us know when we have enough.
The total count..........
167!
So that was the process for the Ravioli. That doesn't include the Meatballs, Sausage, Sauce, Ricotta Pie, Rice Pie (3 each), salad, Homemade spaghettis, and Cakes.
