Description

Gorgonzola Walnut Ravioli is 500g of handmade Gorgonzola and toasted walnut ravioli — a classic Northern Italian pairing where the creaminess of Gorgonzola dolce meets the bitter crunch of toasted walnuts in a filling of outstanding richness. Gorgonzola walnut ravioli is a genuinely indulgent pasta. As a result, the Gorgonzola melts in the béchamel filling to create a creamy, intensely flavoured centre with the walnut providing both texture and a complementary bitterness. Furthermore, Gorgonzola and walnuts is one of the great Italian flavour combinations that appears throughout Lombard and Piedmontese cooking. In particular, this ravioli needs nothing more than good butter and Parmigiano to be outstanding.

About Gorgonzola Walnut Ravioli

These handmade fresh pasta products come from a specialist Italian producer making filled pasta by hand using traditional techniques. In particular, handmade pasta has a texture and thickness that only a skilled pasta maker can achieve — thin enough to cook quickly yet robust enough to hold a generous filling. As a result, each pasta shape provides a completely different eating experience from the dried stuffed pasta sold in supermarkets. Furthermore, the fillings use genuinely high-quality ingredients rather than the stabilisers that extend shelf life in factory products. However, fresh pasta has a shorter shelf life than dried. Always cook within the use-by date on the packaging. In particular, the larger 1kg formats suit catering and entertaining where a more generous quantity is needed. Additionally, all formats freeze well and can be cooked directly from frozen with just 2 extra minutes of cooking time. That combination of genuine craft and quality ingredients defines every pasta in this range. That is why this product from The Artisan Food Company consistently impresses even the most discerning cooks.

Why Choose Gorgonzola Walnut Ravioli From Us

Cooking handmade fresh pasta well requires a little more care than cooking dried pasta. In contrast to dried pasta, fresh pasta cooks in 3 to 4 minutes and can become soft quickly if overcooked. As a result, always taste the pasta from 2 minutes of cooking to find the correct moment. Furthermore, use a generous amount of well-salted boiling water and cook at a rolling boil rather than a gentle simmer. However, handle the pasta gently when stirring to avoid breaking the seals and releasing the filling into the water. In particular, dress the cooked pasta with a sauce that complements the filling rather than overwhelming it. Moreover, a simple butter and sage sauce suits almost every stuffed pasta filling as it allows the filling flavour to remain the focus. Additionally, always reserve a cup of pasta water before draining as it helps emulsify the butter sauce. That gentle approach — well-salted water, careful stirring, complementary sauce — produces the finest result from any handmade pasta.

How to Cook Gorgonzola Walnut Ravioli

To get the very best from it:

  • Cook in well-salted boiling water at a rolling boil for 3 to 4 minutes, tasting from 2 minutes for the correct al dente bite.
  • Stir gently once during cooking to prevent sticking, handling carefully to preserve the pasta seals.
  • Furthermore, dress immediately with a complementary sauce or butter and serve without delay for the finest result.
  • Additionally, freeze on the day of delivery if not cooking immediately and cook from frozen with 2 extra minutes.

Perfect Pairings

This product pairs beautifully with:

  • Good butter and a few more toasted walnuts scattered over the top
  • A simple Gorgonzola cream sauce for an even richer preparation
  • Aged Parmigiano Reggiano grated generously over the finished dish
  • A glass of Barbera d’Asti, Pinot Grigio or a Dolcetto alongside

Storage: Keep refrigerated and use by the date shown on the packaging. Furthermore, these freeze well — freeze on the day of delivery if not using immediately. However, cook from frozen with 2 extra minutes of cooking time rather than defrosting. Delivered fresh and ready to cook.

However you serve it, Gorgonzola Walnut Ravioli brings a quality and flavour that only carefully made artisan food can deliver. Moreover, the finest prepared foods always reward a good sauce and the best possible accompaniments.
