INSTRUCTIONS

CLEAR TOMATO BROTH

  1. Place the tomatoes in a blender or food processor. Blend them together in bunches with the salt until they appear coarsely chopped.  Place the chopped tomatoes in a large sieve lined with a double layer of damp cheesecloth.
  2. Set the sieve over a bowl and let the mixture drain in the refrigerator for 24 hours, collecting the liquid.
  3. Discard the tomato pulp and save the liquid.

***Cook’s Notes: You can substitute the tomato broth with chopped, seeded, and ripe tomatoes or a tomato juice “cocktail”.***

ROASTED GARLIC PURÉE

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  2. Cut off the stem and top third of 1 whole garlic head.
  3. Place the cut garlic on a sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil and drizzle olive oil.
  4. Wrap the garlic up with the foil, making sure the edges are tightly sealed. Roast for 1 hour.
  5. Once done, remove the wrapped garlic from the oven and open it carefully. Let the garlic sit and slightly cool, then scrape/squeeze the pulp from the cloves.

GOAT CHEESE RAVIOLI

  1. Stir together the fresh goat cheese, aged goat cheese, bread crumbs, pesto, olive oil, roasted garlic purée, salt, and pepper into a large bowl until well combined.
  2. Brush 8 egg roll wrappers with the egg wash on a separate workstation.
  3. Without cutting all the way through, use a knife to cut each wrapper into 4 squares. Place 1 tablespoon of the goat cheese mixture in the center of each square and cover them with the 8 remaining egg roll wrappers. Make sure to press the edges together.
  4. Use a knife to cut each double-wrapped square into 4 squares, creating 32 squares of filled ravioli. Press the edges of the ravioli squares together.
  5. ***Skip this step if you plan to use the ravioli immediately*** Sprinkle the ravioli lightly with cornmeal and refrigerate between layers of waxed paper.
  6. Cook the ravioli in a large pot of boiling salted water for 1 to 2 minutes. Completely drain.
  7. Serve with the clear tomato broth or chopped seeded ripe tomatoes.
