Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 15

DOUGH
1 2/3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour plus more for dusting
1/4 cup (½ stick) unsalted butter,at room temperature
3 tablespoons confectioners sugar plus more for dusting
1 large egg plus 1 large egg yolk
2 tablespoons dry white wine
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
FILLING
1 cup canned chickpeas (from 15-ounce can), rinsed and drained
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons thick-style cherry jam or preserves
3 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped semisweet chocolate
3 tablespoons confectioners sugar plus more for dusting
Finely grated zest from 1 lemon
Heaping 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt Generous pinch cinnamon
SPECIAL EQUIPMENT: pastry wheel with fluted edge; parchment paper

Steps:

  • For Dough: In a large bowl, combine all dough ingredients except egg yolk (set aside yolk for eggwash); knead with hands to form smooth, soft dough. Cover bowl with plastic wrap; let rest 15 minutes. For Filling: In a bowl, mash chickpeas with a fork. Add jam, chocolate, sugar, zest, salt and cinnamon; stir to combine. Heat oven to 350º with rack in middle. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Divide dough into 4 pieces. Rewrap 3 pieces in plastic wrap. Flatten unwrapped dough so that it will fit through the rollers of a pasta machine. Set rollers of pasta machine at the widest setting, then feed dough through rollers once. Continue to roll dough through machine, decreasing the setting one notch at a time (do not fold or turn pasta), until 1/16- inch thick. Transfer to a lightly floured work surface. With long side of dough facing you, drop tablespoonfuls of filling alongside lower half of dough, spacing mounds 1 inch apart, then fold top half of dough over filling. Press out air from around filling mounds, then, using a fluted pastry wheel, trim pasta along its length and cut between mounds into 2-inch squares; gently press down edges of ravioli to seal. Arrange ravioli on prepared baking sheet, at least 1 inch apart. Repeat with remaining dough and filling. In a small bowl, beat together remaining egg yolk and 1 tablespoon tepid water. Brush ravioli with egg wash. Bake, rotating pan once halfway through, until lightly golden, about 20 minutes. Let ravioli cool slightly, then dust with confectioners sugar. Serve warm. - See more at: http://lacucinaitalianamagazine.com/recipe/sweet-cherry-and-chickpea-ravioli#sthash.AwD8tjqj.dpuf
