Day 8 - Pasta

It's an "off" day today - sleep in and have a nice lunch on the terrace.  But then the rain came!  Good thing we were "off" !

Later I had a special retirement "Kaffee und Kuchen" with my English teachers - our last meeting together.  Next year it will be another configuration. 

But there's always at least one activity with H+H and today it was dinner - Pasta from scratch.

First the dough:

then make the filling:

chop up the herbs:

then through the machine:

Here's the ravioli ready to go:

H+H had a  lot of fun with this!  We did strips for the ricotta cheese filling that Hannah made and trimmed them all by hand.  I think a little form would be in order next time.  They made noodles with the leftovers.

Sauce?  This is one night we did do up a bit more restaurant-ish - everyone got to choose their own sauce:  tomato sauce for Hannah, sage/butter sauce for Meemaw, Alfredo for Hunter and Bärlauch pesto for Werner.

Conclusion:  Lots of fun to make !  Tastes good, too !   We ate it all, but next time we'll make the pasta a bit thinner.
