Ingredients
In the original Italian dish, Ravioli di gallina, the ravioli are typically served in a rich tomato-based sauce. However, in this New Nordic adaptation, the tomato sauce is replaced with a light and herb-infused broth, which is a characteristic feature of Nordic cuisine. Additionally, the filling of the ravioli incorporates Nordic herbs and ricotta cheese, adding a unique Nordic twist to the traditional chicken filling.

Treat your ingredients with care...
- Nordic herbs — Use fresh herbs whenever possible to maximize the flavor. If fresh herbs are not available, you can use dried herbs, but reduce the quantity by half.
- Wonton wrappers — If you can't find wonton wrappers, you can make your own pasta dough using a mixture of all-purpose flour and semolina flour. Roll out the dough thinly and cut it into squares to use as wrappers.
Tips & Tricks
- To enhance the flavor of the broth, you can add a splash of white wine or a squeeze of lemon juice.
- Experiment with different Nordic herbs to find your preferred flavor combination.
- If you prefer a richer broth, you can add a dollop of sour cream or crème fraîche to each serving.
- Serve the ravioli with a side of Nordic pickled vegetables for added freshness and acidity.
- If you want to make the dish more substantial, you can add cooked Nordic root vegetables, such as parsnips or turnips, to the broth.
