Time 20m

Yield 6 ravioli

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup very cold whole-milk ricotta cheese, drained
1 tablespoon powdered sugar
Pinch of kosher salt
2 tablespoons chocolate-hazelnut spread
12 wonton wrappers
1 large egg, beaten
Vegetable oil, for frying
1/2 cup strawberries, sliced
4 ounces white chocolate, melted
Chopped hazelnuts, for garnish

Steps:

  • Mix the ricotta with the powdered sugar and salt, then stir in the chocolate-hazelnut spread.
  • Place 6 wonton wrappers on the counter and place about 1 tablespoon of the chocolate-ricotta mixture in the center of each. Brush the beaten egg around the outside of the wrappers, then top with the remaining 6 wrappers, pressing out the air and ensuring the edges are sealed tightly.
  • Heat 1/2 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When the oil is 350 degrees F, add the ravioli and fry, flipping once halfway through, until they are golden and crisp on both sides, about 1 1/2 minutes.
  • To serve, place the ravioli on a plate. Scatter over the strawberry slices and drizzle with the white chocolate. Top with the chopped hazelnuts.

CHOCOLATE RAVIOLI IN BITTERSWEET CHOCOLATE SAUCE

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

THE PASTA DOUGH:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup cocoa powder, plus more for dusting
3 tablespoons sugar
Pinch of salt
3 large eggs
THE CHOCOLATE PASTRY CREAM FILLING:
3 cups milk
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise
1/2 cup sugar
5 egg yolks
1/3 cup cornstarch
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 pound hazelnut chocolate (gianduja), roughly chopped
THE SAUCE:
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon sugar
5 ounces bittersweet chocolate, roughly chopped
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
THE POACHING LIQUID:
8 cups water
2 cups sugar

Steps:

  • For the pasta dough, sift the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, and salt into a large mixing bowl and whisk to blend. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and place the eggs in the well. Using a fork, slowly incorporate the eggs into the flour, until all the eggs have been absorbed. Transfer the dough to a work surface and, using the palm of your hand, lightly knead the dough for 3 to 4 minutes. If the dough is sticky, sprinkle a little flour on the kneading surface. The dough is ready if, when you make an impression in it with the tip of your finger, the dough bounces back. Shape into a disk and tightly wrap in plastic film. Let the dough rest for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
  • Meanwhile, make the pastry cream: In a medium saucepan, combine the milk and vanilla bean. Place over high heat and bring to a boil (be careful not to scorch the milk). Meanwhile, using a whisk, in a medium bowl, whip the sugar and egg yolks until pale yellow and frothy, about 2 minutes. Add the cornstarch and whisk to dissolve any lumps.
  • Remove the vanilla bean from the milk and discard. Temper the egg yolk mixture by pouring a little of the steaming milk into the yolks, whisking to incorporate. Whisk the egg yolks into the remaining milk in the pan, set the pan over medium heat, and whisk quickly and constantly until the mixture thickens and comes to a boil, then whisk for another minute. Add the butter and stir until incorporated. Transfer the pastry cream to a storage container and place plastic wrap directly against the cream to prevent a skin from forming on top. Refrigerate until fully chilled, about 2 hours.
  • Once the pastry cream has chilled, place the hazelnut chocolate in a microwave-safe container and microwave on high for 1 minute; or melt the chocolate in a double boiler over low heat. Remove the chocolate from the microwave and stir. Heat the chocolate for another minute, remove, and stir to melt the remaining chocolate. Add to the pastry cream and stir to incorporate. Return to the refrigerator and chill for at least 30 minutes.
  • Divide the pasta dough into 4 pieces. Using a pasta machine, one at a time, roll out each piece from the widest to the thinnest setting. Keep the remaining dough covered to prevent it from drying out.
  • To make the ravioli, dust a work surface with flour. Place one pasta sheet on the work surface. Starting about 2 inches from one end, place a teaspoon of filling every 4 inches down the pasta strip, ending about 2 inches from the other end of the strip. Brush the pasta dough with water, fold the dough over, and press to seal, being careful not to trap air inside the ravioli (or they will burst during cooking). Cut the ravioli into half-moons using a cookie cutter or pastry wheel. Press the edges together and squeeze to make the edges of the dough as thin as possible. Set the finished ravioli on a baking sheet lined with parchment and sprinkled with flour, to prevent sticking. Repeat with the remaining dough. You should get at least 24 ravioli. Refrigerate until ready to cook.
  • For the sauce, bring the heavy cream, milk, and sugar to a simmer in a small saucepan. Remove from the heat, add the chocolate, and stir until melted. Add the butter and stir to incorporate.
  • To cook the ravioli, bring the water and sugar to a boil in a large pot and boil until the sugar has dissolved. Add the ravioli to the pot and cook until al dente, about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, gently reheat the chocolate sauce.
  • To serve, remove the ravioli with a slotted spoon, letting the excess liquid drain, and arrange 4 ravioli on each plate. Drizzle the sauce over each plate. Serve immediately.

CHEESY CHOCOLATE RAVIOLI



Cheesy Chocolate Ravioli image

Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 carrot, peeled and chopped
1 shallot, chopped
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Two 14-ounce cans cherry tomatoes
2 sprigs fresh basil
One 4-inch Parmesan rind
1/2 cup mascarpone
Kosher salt
Olive oil, for drizzling
1 cup ricotta
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella
1/4 cup finely chopped bittersweet chocolate
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon sweet smoked paprika
40 round wonton wrappers
1 large egg, beaten
Freshly grated Parmesan, for serving

Steps:

  • For the sauce: Heat a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil, carrot, shallot and salt. Cook, stirring often, until softened slightly, about 2 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes, basil and Parmesan rind. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the mascarpone. Remove and discard the Parmesan rind. Use an immersion blender to pulse to the desired texture. Keep warm.
  • For the ravioli: Bring a large, shallow pot of water to a boil over high heat. Season well with salt and a drizzle of olive oil.
  • Combine the ricotta, mozzarella, chocolate, salt and paprika in a medium bowl. Stir together with a rubber spatula until smooth. Place a heaping teaspoon of the filling in the center of a wonton wrapper. Brush the edges with the egg wash and place another wrapper on top. Press the edges together, squeezing out any air bubbles form the center. Continue with the remaining filling and wrappers.
  • Add the ravioli to the boiling water in batches and cook until they float, about 2 minutes. Remove the ravioli to a plate with a slotted spoon or a spider. Serve 5 ravioli on each plate and spoon the sauce over the top. Finish with freshly grated Parmesan, as desired.

BITTERSWEET CHOCOLATE SOUFFLé



Bittersweet Chocolate Soufflé image

Dark and intense in flavor, yet with a light and custardy texture, a chocolate soufflé is an eternal showstopper of a dessert. To get that intense chocolate flavor, this version uses a base of melted butter and chocolate without any starch. Be sure to use excellent bittersweet chocolate, but if you prefer a slightly sweeter soufflé, feel free to substitute milk chocolate for all or part of the bittersweet. Or to move the soufflé in the other direction, substitute a chocolate with a higher cocoa solids ratio, 70 to 75 percent, which will decrease the overall sugar. For maximum "wow" factor, always serve a soufflé straight from the oven. Crème anglaise or chocolate sauce would be fine accompaniments, as would scoops of your favorite ice cream. This recipe is part of The New Essentials of French Cooking, a guide to definitive dishes every modern cook should master. Buy the book.

Categories     dinner, dessert

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup/114 grams unsalted butter (1 stick), softened, plus more for coating dish
4 tablespoons/50 grams granulated sugar, plus more for coating dish
8 ounces/225 grams bittersweet chocolate (60 to 65 percent cacao), finely chopped
6 eggs, separated, at room temperature
Pinch fine sea salt
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar

Steps:

  • Remove wire racks from oven and place a baking sheet directly on oven floor. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Generously butter a 1 1/2-quart soufflé dish. Coat bottom and sides thoroughly with sugar, tapping out excess. For the best rise, make sure there is sugar covering all the butter on the sides of the dish.
  • In a medium bowl, melt chocolate and butter either in the microwave or in a bowl over a pot of simmering water. Let cool only slightly (it should still be warm), then whisk in egg yolks and salt.
  • Using an electric mixer, beat egg whites and cream of tartar at medium speed until the mixture is fluffy and holds very soft peaks. Add sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating until whites hold stiff peaks and look glossy.
  • Gently whisk a quarter of the egg whites into the chocolate mixture to lighten it. Fold in remaining whites in two additions, then transfer batter to prepared dish. Rub your thumb around the inside edge of the dish to create about a ¼-inch space between the dish and the soufflé mixture.
  • Transfer dish to baking sheet in the oven, and reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees. Bake until soufflé is puffed and center moves only slightly when dish is shaken gently, about 25 to 35 minutes. (Do not open oven door during first 20 minutes.) Bake it a little less for a runnier soufflé and a little more for a firmer soufflé. Serve immediately.

BITTERSWEET CHOCOLATE SAUCE



Bittersweet Chocolate Sauce image

Chocolate sauce is easy to make, but it's a good idea to do so in a double boiler, which eliminates the possibility of accidentally burning the sauce. If you don't have a double boiler, improvise one by placing a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Use high quality dark chocolate, not generic "baker's chocolate," for the best results.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling later on.
  • Use High-Quality Chocolate: The quality of your chocolate will greatly impact the flavor of your ravioli. Choose a high-quality bittersweet chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Temper the Chocolate: Tempering your chocolate is a crucial step that helps to stabilize it and prevent it from seizing. This will give your ravioli a smooth, shiny finish.
  • Don't Overcook the Ravioli: Ravioli cook very quickly, so it's important to keep an eye on them. Overcooked ravioli will be tough and chewy.
  • Serve the Ravioli Immediately: Chocolate ravioli is best served immediately after it is made. The ravioli will start to soften and lose its shape if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

Chocolate ravioli in bittersweet chocolate sauce is a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for special occasions. It is a bit time-consuming to make, but it is well worth the effort. With careful preparation and attention to detail, you can create a truly memorable dish that your guests will love.
