Instructions
Cook the Ravioli:
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the artisanal spinach and cheese ravioli to the boiling water, following the package instructions for cooking time. Stir gently to prevent sticking.
Fresh Rosemary Infusion:
While the ravioli is cooking, finely chop the handpicked fresh rosemary. Set it aside.
Drain the Ravioli:
Once the ravioli is cooked to al dente perfection, drain them in a colander, reserving a small amount of pasta water.
Prepare the Sauce:
In a large skillet over medium heat, add the cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil. Allow it to warm up but not smoke.
Sauté with Rosemary:
Add the finely chopped fresh rosemary to the olive oil. Sauté for a minute until the rosemary becomes fragrant, infusing the oil with its aromatic essence.
Toss in the Ravioli:
Gently add the drained ravioli to the skillet with the rosemary-infused olive oil. Toss the ravioli in the flavorful oil, ensuring each piece is coated evenly.
Grate Parmigiano-Reggiano:
Grate the aged Parmigiano-Reggiano freshly for the recipe. Use a fine grater to create delicate shavings.
Finish with Parmigiano-Reggiano:
Sprinkle the freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano over the sautéed ravioli. Toss once more to combine, allowing the cheese to melt slightly.
Adjust Consistency (Optional):
If the dish seems a bit dry, add a splash of the reserved pasta water to create a light sauce that coats the ravioli.
Serve Hot:
Plate the Costco Spinach Ravioli with Rosemary and Parmigiano-Reggiano on individual serving plates.
Garnish and Enjoy:
Finish by garnishing with additional fresh rosemary and a sprinkle of Parmigiano-Reggiano. Serve immediately while the ravioli is hot.
Savor the Decadence:
Enjoy the burst of flavors in each bite, with the richness of Parmigiano-Reggiano complementing the earthy notes of spinach and the fragrant touch of rosemary.
