Charles will be putting up what he calls "my [i.e., his] side of the story," but in the meantime I thought I'd entertain you with a Konglishy rendition of what it's like to make ravioli from scratch. Charles is a formidable cook, and as I had never made ravioli before-- let alone decent pasta-- this was an educational experience for me.
The following sequence of 29 photos has been divided into three sections: (1) ravioli-making, (2) the "prequel" (in which you will see a bit of what I went through to make the meat sauce that topped the ravioli, and (3) a "sequel" that depicts a little bit of insanity just for Charles, who couldn't believe that I'd actually eat large chunks of Parmesan cheese.
One thing my narration forgot to mention is that Charles also baked his own excellent bread for the occasion. Fresh vegetables came from his family's garden, right there on his property, and the excellent veggie dip was crafted by Charles's lovely wife.
Without further ado, then... on with the Konglishie!
PART ONE: RAVIOLI-MAKING
PART TWO: THE PREQUEL (SPAGHETTI SAUCE)
PART THREE: THE AFTERMATH (DEATH OF THE PARMESAN CHUNK)
