Instructions

    Ravioli
  1. In a large bowl, stir together the fresh goat cheese, aged goat cheese, bread crumbs, pesto, olive oil, roasted garlic purée, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  2. On a work surface, lay out 8 egg roll wrappers and brush each with the egg wash.
  3. With a sharp knife , mark each wrapper into 4 squares, taking care not to cut all of the way through.
  4. Place about 1 tablespoon of the goat cheese mixture in the center of each square. Cover with the 8 remaining egg roll wrappers and press the edges together.
  5. With a knife, cut each double wrapper with filling into 4 squares, to yield 32 squares of filled ravioli.
  6. Press the edges together. (If you are not using the ravioli immediately, sprinkle them lightly with cornmeal, and store refrigerated between layers of waxed paper).
  7. When ready to serve, cook the ravioli in a large pot of boiling salted water for 1 to 2 minutes.
  8. Drain completely.
  9. Serve with Clear Tomato Broth or chopped seeded ripe tomatoes.
  10. Tomato Broth
  11. In a blender, in batches, coarsely chop the tomatoes with the salt.
  12. Place the chopped tomatoes in a large sieve lined with a double layer of damp cheesecloth, set it over a bowl, and let the mixture drain in the refrigerator for 24 hours to collect the liquid.
  13. Discard the tomato pulp and reserve the liquid.
  14. Garlic Puree
  15. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  16. Cut off the stem and top third of 1 whole garlic head.
  17. Place the garlic on a sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil and drizzle with olive oil.
  18. Wrap the garlic with foil, seal the edges tightly and roast for 1 hour.
  19. Remove the package from the oven, open carefully, and let the garlic cool slightly.
  20. Scrape or squeeze the pulp from the garlic cloves.
