Ravioles Du Dauphinè…Yes, the French Make Pasta

[@crb4528]

Omg! I've been following you and your recipe for years and I originally come from where these ravioles are made! I'm living abroad now but every time I go to to France it is the main dish I request from my family as it's nearly impossible to find elsewhere (and even in France itself it's not so popular!). I also gave myself the mission to make it known among all my foreigners friends and they all fall in love with it. So emotional somehow for me to see you making it! Thank you!

[@DBarks38]

A Bruxelles on en trouve surgelés à Picard si jamais

[@arenkai]

Ravioles du Dauphiné are indeed a French national treasure ! A local restaurant where I live cooks them in the oven with a mixture of heavy cream, lard, cheese on top (comté is the best for this, but gruyère is also great) and a bit of butter for so it doesn't stick. 20-25min in the oven at 210°C And you have a classic of popular French cuisine : Gratin de Ravioles

[@imTense]

My brother told me you can freeze the thyme-stems and then shake the container to loosen the leaves. I have not tested it but it's worth a try!

[@Voetballen007b]

I will try this out thank you! You can also pass the sprigs through the small holes of a box grater if you don't have the freezing-thyme. Works for basil aswel (the larger grates)

[@loonator1995]

I find thyme the easiest herb to pull off of its stem and not annoying at all. Its like 1-2 seconds per stem and so basically done in no thyme..

[@sonnyse7en]

Amazing cheese, Especially aged. But, if you can get your hands on non-Pasteurized cheeses than you’d love and aged Beaufort d’été (summer one and not winter one) of min 24 months) then go for it! It’s the same family of cheese, but definitely way above Comté.

[@moi-meme4502]

From a French who already did it, I have to say your technique is just incredible. Keep going man !!

[@Grilnid]

Good stuff Stephen! FYI, these "ravioles du dauphiné" come from the same region as the "gratin dauphinois", or "potatoes au gratin" or "dauphinoise potatoes" (seems to exist under a variety of names in the states). There's a restaurant in Lyon (a "bouchon") where you actually only order your main dish (some kind of meat or offal), and whatever you order they'll just bring to your table a whole dish filled with potatoes au gratin, and another one also filled to the brim with those ravioles with even more grated Comté melted on top and between the layers. Let's just say I didn't leave this restaurant hungry.

[@arenkai]

Lyon, the french capital of food !

[@markvickroy6725]

Offal? Such as?

[@Grilnid]

@@markvickroy6725 andouillette (a spicy chunky intestine sausage), tablier de sapeur (breaded and fried beef intestine), sweetbread (calf thymus), and probably many others. The Lyon area is specifically known for still doing a lot more dishes involving offal as most other French regions nowadays (even though people used to do it essentially all over the country, it really mostly stayed relevant around Lyon)

[@erwinamesz7642]

Comté, the best cheese in the world!!!!! I ate Ravioles du Royans in the Drome area with lavender, stinging nettle, rosemary or other herbs. They also served half a pizza with a side salad with fried ravioles (crunchy). best food ever.

[@bradbutler]

[@lheiser2]

This is the technique my grandmother used way back in Brooklyn. I am 74. I was about 6,7 years old. She made ravioli for all holidays. Meat, or cheese.

[@NiceB4dge]

Nice ! Your ravioles look so tasty ! As a french person, I had no idea ravioles were so little known outside of France haha We sometimes bake them as Gratins with more crème fraîche, that's great too. And we sometimes choose other strong flavorful cheeses, like Beaufort (similar to Comté) or Saint Marcellin.

[@71lizgoeshardt]

I think ravioles are hyper regional, even within France. I'm in sud Bourgogne and my in-laws are in Lyon and Isère, so we have always eaten them... but when I mention ravioles to work colleagues who are from Paris or the west, they have never heard of them.

[@DBarks38]

It is famous in drome and Isère départements but you can buy on any supermarché in the country anyway

​@@superresistant0ravioles are definitely known in France. Source : being French and not from the Dauphiné

[@justine4432]

I did not expect to see those here! It's a bit of an obscure French dish. I'm from the Dauphiné region and those are super nostalgic to me now that I live abroad and can't find them. Every time I go home, it's always a go-to meal when we're lazy since it cooks really fast. Also it's very popular in gratins, or grilled as a topping in salads, and the very common raviole pizza, which is a pizza with a crème fraiche base, ravioles, sometimes walnuts and some more cheese.

[@etienne8110]

You can order them frozen from the mère maury online shop. As good as fresh. Unless you live in remote part of distant countries ^^ That s how i got my ravioles fix while living abroad. 😅

[@islandnowhere4703]

As a Dauphinoise myself I am very happy that you showcased those french pasta. If Italy is indubitably the most famous european country for pasta, France is home several pasta dishes (mainly in the south east and east). And every country in Europe has its own pasta specialty! Enjoy your future meals!

I'm from the region of Dauphiné and I had ravioles quite often in my youth and occasionally since then. I got to say that presentation keeping the sheets together makes a lot of sense and is beautiful. Traditionally like ravioli, they are separated which is tedious to do, messy, they stick and tear spilling the filling, quite often you end up with mash, still good but not sexy. Nice touch!

[@garydumbauld4212]

[@pointdexter5215]

Vin Jaune literally translates to wine yellow or yellow wine. And is indeed closely related to sherry, but not quite the same process. But I'm sure that sauce you made as an alternative is mighty tasty.

Stephen, I love your creations! You are such a perfectionist, you always get everything just right and you teach it so well! And always new ideas!

[@jaspervanheycop9722]

I did part of my history degree on medieval cuisine, you'd be surprised how far pasta traveled (as it were), you could find it in fancy cookbooks (in the middle ages there were only ones written for personal chefs, so you know what kind of people it's intended for!) all over Europe, as well as Italian cheeses and other Italian ingredients and sometimes even good importers to pick those up! I found a recipe for "Raviolis" (served with a sauce of raw eggyolk and warm spices) in a Low Countries cookbook and Max from Tasting History has one on Losegns (i.e. lasagna) from medieval Britain. One bonus fact: medieval cuisine was VERY sweet and spicy. If they could afford it, people would put lots of ginger, cinnamon, sugar and pepper in everything. The more stereotypical mellow European cuisine came about in the Early Modern Era, when it became fancy to have basic ingedients cooked to perfection.

[@jujutrini8412]

I did medieval history for my A level and developed an interest in it so read a great deal of medieval history books, went to loads of museums in various European countries etc from about the age of sixteen or so and that is one of the things that used to baffle me about food in the UK. Every single thing I ever read about the era emphasised their absolute love of spices! I used to ask my teachers, tutors at Uni etc how the heck did British food become so bland after being like that for hundreds of years? The only thing I could come up with was that they had rationing for both World Wars, as well as very intense blockades in regards foreign imports, so they somehow lost the taste for it over that period of time, basically affecting two generations of Brits. I am just glad other people think a little like I do - everyone else in my family thinks I am a nutty nerd.😂😂😂

[@jaspervanheycop9722]

@@jujutrini8412 the big shift came with the "invention" of the restaurant in France. Heavily spiced food was considered gauche or covering up poor ingredients (a weird myth that persist even today wrt to the Global South, weird since spices are, and have always been, more expensive than food...), so you wanted "clean" tasting food to make good impressions. And what the restaurants in France did got copied elsewhere since it kinda was the center of the cultural world (at least for Europe). It's basically the same minimalist food fad we still have aftershocks from to this day.

[@jeanniebrooks]

It’s hard to imagine the French as “minimalist” when it comes to flavor: just think of the amazing number of cheeses they created! More than the Italians or Swiss or any other country. What cheese you select for which dish was (is) very particular too. It has to be the perfect one. French cheeses are incredibly flavorful.

Dude, you are such a great teacher. I would love to come w/ with you when you do one of those cooking events.

HI ! I come from the place these come from. Not so long ago, we were only a few cities to do this, and this recipe was not very known, even in France.

[@timolamarmote]

Nice sauce, looks great. If you're looking for a simpler but amazing traditional recipe with raviole, while they cook, gently heat some walnut oil with a grated clove of garlic, and combine with the cooked raviole (there is a tradition of growing walnuts in the region where ravioles are from, my dad is from there and ravioles has been one of the family's favorites for decades)

Hey in France we have what we call IGP (Indication Géographique Protégés) or in english Protected Geographic Origin. It means that u CANT use the name of a dish u didnt respect the geographic and culinary specifications. Here in the Chelsea restaurant, they didnt respect any specifications, so they cant really use this name :/ This law was created to protect french cusiine from foreign bad interpretations and stealing a french name. About the Ravioles du Dauphiné, you MUST respect the specifications : minimum of 55% of dough AND stuff it with REAL Comté or Emmental cheese coming from France. You should say it in your video, thats a very very very important thing in France, thats why our cuisine is still preserved and keep inspiring the world ;)
