The art of making ravioli becomes easy with Imperia's accessories.
Ravioli Maker produces strips of perfect ravioli. Ravioli are good if they are home-made
and it is possible to make them with different fillings: meat, cottage cheese, ham and
mozzarella, etc... Ravioli are delicious served with sauce or in broth.
HOW TO MAKE RAVIOLI WITH IMPERIA RAVIOLI MAKER
1 - Prepare the filling you prefer.
2 - Attach the Imperia Ravioli Maker to the Imperia pasta making machine, inserting
it in the supports provided. Before continuing, make sure that the machine is well fas-
tened to the table.
3 - Prepare the pasta sheet of the required thickness (smooth and silky like).
4 - Trim the sheet with the wheel cutter as illustrated and sprinkle lightly with flour.
5 - Split the sheet in two lengthways, to obtain two sheets of the same size.
6 - Place the two sheets on the wooden rollers of the hopper provided and turn the handle
inserted in its housing, making sure that the rollers of Imperia Ravioli Maker begin to pull them.
7 - Spoon on the filling between the two layers of pasta, taking care to put a minimal
amount without squashing. The filling should not be pressed in!
8 - The pasta should be rather dry but not too much. The filling should be rather soft
and homogeneous.
9 - Now it is possible to start making the ravioli starting to turn the handle very slowly.
Rows of filled squares will come out of the machine. If there is any excess pasta add
more filling. If the ravioli tend to break, reduce the amount of filling.
10 - Before separating the ravioli allow to dry out.
11 - To cook the ravioli, boil in plenty of salted water for appr. 4-5 minutes.

HOW TO MAKE "GNOCCHI" WITH IMPERIA MILLE GNOCCHI
With this accessory, fitted to the Imperia machine, it is possible to obtain cavatelli, Sardinian
gnocchetti and rigatelli, to be cooked in thousands of mouth-watering recipes.
Preparation of the pasta, dose for 4 persons: 1
Pass the dough several times through the rollers of the Imperia machine in the maximum
opening position; the dough obtained should be soft and as thick as possible.
Cut the dough in pieces, shape them by rolling, with hands and obtain a small cilynder 10 in
long, and 1/2 in diameter. Pass the cilynder in the MilleGnocchi; the fresher the pasta the
better the Cavatelli, Rigatelli and Sardinian gnocchetti.
If the results are not satisfactory (probably owing to the sheet not being thick enough,
roll the strips lengthways (like breadsticks), this will make processing easier.
