gluten-free ravioli recipe

When we were newlyweds, Gabriel and I went out to a small Italian restaurant one evening, where I ordered the most amazing tortellini I had ever eaten.

Truth be told, it was probably the white wine sauce it was served in that made it so delicious as much as anything, but nevertheless, I was determined to replicate the dish in a gluten free version so that Gabriel could enjoy it too. 

Making gluten free pasta dough is easy enough, but it didn’t take me long figure out that making tortellini is very tedious. So I improvised and made gluten free ravioli instead. Same taste, different shape, and less than 1/4 of the time to make it.

Over the years, I’ve made this dish as a special treat now and then. Sometimes with cheese filling and white wine sauce, and other times, like yesterday, with meat filling and marinara sauce. 

Either way, it’s wonderfully delicious. And it is special. Gluten free ravioli isn’t something you see a lot. And homemade ravioli from scratch isn’t something anybody sees very often. 

Before you start, I offer this one word of caution: it’s very easy to make HUGE ravioli. You put what you think is a small spoonful of filling on the dough, by the time you add the second layer of pasta dough, it’s huge. You can make them are large as you want of course, but in any case, you probably need to make them smaler than you think you do.

Other than that, this recipe is really quite easy!

    1. I tried with gf flour and added 1 tsp xantam gum to add extra stickiness. Worked like a charm. My little one with gluten sensitivity was very happy.

  1. Q1. Where do you get “gluten free flour”? Q2. Can you pre make these and freeze them to cook later? These look amazing and I have a young friend who needs to go gluten free at the age of 13 and she loves her cheese raviolli, so I want to figure out how to make her some.

    1. Most grocery stores have an allergy-friendly section in their baking aisles. Bob’s Red mill has a pretty good flour blend that’s widely available. Pamela’s Artisan flour blend is a great blend to order on Amazon as well.

      As for freezing, yes. I would flash freeze them on a cookie sheet, then transfer them to freezer bags for storage.
