  • Giovanna's rustic and marjoram-flecked ravioli are dressed with the rich tomato sauce from a pork stew. You may remember there is another Giovanna in New York who made a similar recipe, but she is from the neighbouring town of Ragusa, and this Giovanna does not sweeten her ricotta or add orange zest. Instead is the zinging floral thyme like flavour of marjoram which is used.
    For the filling: 300g cows milk ricotta, well drained. 1 egg yolk, 1 tablespoon marjoram leaves, minced, black pepper
    For the stew: 2 sausages, 3 pork chops, 100g cubed pancetta (not smoked), one onion or large spring onion, 1 clove, some (garlic) chives, 2 tablespoons tomato concentrate, 400ml tomato pasta, 1 glass red wine. Salt if necessary.
    For the pasta: 400g semolina flour. 200g of liquid - in Giovanna's case it's 5 eggs, but you could also use all water, or one egg and the rest water. It's up to you.

    I love the term “nonna knife” 😭 I’m Filipino and my lola (grandmother) has a knife just like this. It’s so sweet to see another culture have this too!

    I am always amazed how much work these grannies put in on every dish. She made the raviolis one by one and then trim the excess dough. We should idolize these cooks and not so much the ones on TV.

    If you like the look of these towns in Italy but you live in the USA you might want to move to a small farm town. I lived in Coupeville, Washington State, USA for 15 years and it was so romantic. No one cusses or is rude. There is no violence. Everyone knows everyone's name. It is right near the State Park with hundreds of miles of trails in the forest. Unfortunately, that town was ruined by development. I'm sure there are nice small towns still!
