Mezzaluna (Half-Moon) Pasta

May 21, 2013

Mezzaluna means "half-moon". These are similar to Ravioli, but larger. They can be filled with just about anything, but this is our favorite version. And it's vegetarian!

1 tbl. butter
1 tbl. olive oil
16 oz. white mushrooms, finely chopped in a food processor
½ medium onion, finely diced
¼ tsp. ground black pepper
¼ tsp. salt
3 tbl. Ricotta cheese
2 tbl. Parmesan cheese
¼ tsp. garlic powder
1 ¾ cup pasta flour (you can use regular all purpose flour, but pasta flour is better)
2 eggs, lightly beaten
pinch of salt
2 tbl. cornstarch
2 tbl. water

Put butter and olive oil in a deep skillet and heat over medium heat until just hot · Add the mushrooms and onions, salt and pepper · Cook over medium heat until liquid has mostly evaporated...
