Einkorn Flour Pasta


I’m pretty much completely switched over to Einkorn flour. It’s an ancient grain that is healthy and easily digestible. If you want to know more about Einkorn, I have written more about it HERE.

Recipe Modifications


If you find that you don’t have the time to make homemade ravioli, you can definitely substitute store-bought. You could use shrimp or crab in place of lobster or eliminate it if you aren’t a fan of seafood. You can also use other proteins like sausage or chicken. Or if you like you can also just leave them plain cheese if you like.


If you don’t want to make the ravioli dough, I also have a recipe for ravioli where I used wonton wrappers. You can find it HERE.


The tomato sauce is a quick easy way to make ravioli special.

Ingredients
Einkorn Pasta
  • 3 cups Einkorn all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp water
Ravioli Filling
  • 1 tbsp grapeseed oil
  • 4 cups spinach leaves, coarsely chopped, loosely packed
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 8 oz ricotta cheese
  • 2 oz mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 4 oz goat cheese, softened
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1/2 cup lobster meat, finely chopped (optional) you can add more lobster or another protein. If you just want cheese this is optional.
Light Tomato Sauce
  • 1 tbsp grapeseed oil
  • 1/2 cup diced onions
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 2 cans (14 oz) whole tomatoes I use my 2 of my pints that I canned in the summer
  • 1 4 oz. can of tomato paste
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • Salt & Pepper, to taste
Instructions
Ravioli Filling
Saute spinach in heated oil until wilted. Add garlic and saute for 1 minute until fragrant. Move off of heat to cool.
Mix all the cheeses together with egg and spices. Add cooled spinach mixture and lobster. Set aside
Tomato Sauce
Saute the onions in the oil over medium heat in a saute pan, once translucent add the garlic, and saute for one more minute until fragrant. Add the whole tomatoes, tomato paste, oregano, salt, and pepper. Gently break up the whole tomatoes a bit with the side of a wooden spoon and combine the tomato paste.
Bring to a boil and then turn down to low and let simmer for 20 minutes
Einkorn Ravioli
Put flour and salt into the mixer bowl and mix with the flat beater.
Lift the beater and add the eggs and oil to the center of the flour mixture. Mix on low until well blended but still crumbly. Add the water and the dough will form a ball. Once a ball is formed, change the flat beater to the dough hook. Run the dough hook on medium speed for 5 minutes.
Take the dough out of the bowl and form it into a ball. Cut into four equal pieces. Store the pieces your not using under a damp tea towel.
Take one piece of dough and roll it into a ball and then flatten out a bit with a rolling pin.
Starting at the largest pasta roller size (8) roll the dough through the machine. Then fold in half or thirds to form a rectangle and put through machine again and then one more time. Continue putting the dough through the machine moving the size down each time until you get to 5 or 4. Do not go any thinner for ravioli.
Place each piece under the damp tea towel until you are ready to use.
Once you have your four pieces ready, layout two and evenly place filling in twelve spots on each piece of dough. Then cover with the remaining two pieces. Cut out the ravioli and then use a fork to seal.
Add finished ravioli to boiling water for 4 minutes, lift with a slotted spoon and serve with tomato sauce.
I bought a ravioli maker and I found that it was very difficult to use. The simple old fashioned way worked the best.
