There are basic rules to follow when handling food.

They are COOK, SEPARATE, CLEAN, and CHILL.

COOK

It’s crucial to cook food to a safe internal temperature to destroy bacteria that is present.
The safety of hamburgers and other foods made with ground meat has been receiving a lot
of attention lately, and with good reason. When meat is ground, the bacteria present on the
surface is mixed throughout the ground mixture. If this ground meat is not cooked to at least
160oF to 165oF (71oC to 74oC), bacteria will not be destroyed and there’s a good chance you
will get sick.

Solid pieces of meat like steaks and chops don’t have dangerous bacteria like E. coli on the
inside, so they can be served more rare. Still, any beef cut should be cooked to an internal
temperature of at least 145oF (63oC) (medium rare). The safe temperature for poultry is 180oF
(82oC) and solid cuts of pork should be cooked to 160oF (71oC). Eggs should be thoroughly
cooked too. If you are making a meringue or other recipe that uses uncooked eggs, buy
specially pasteurized eggs or use prepared meringue powder.

SEPARATE

Foods that will be eaten uncooked and foods that will be cooked before eating MUST ALWAYS
be separated. Cross-contamination occurs when raw meats or eggs come in contact with
foods that will be eaten uncooked. This is a major source of food poisoning. Always double­wrap raw meats and place them on the lowest shelf in the refrigerator so there is no way juices
can drip onto fresh produce. Then use the raw meats within 1-2 days of purchase, or freeze for
longer storage. Defrost frozen meats in the refrigerator, not on the counter.

When grilling or cooking raw meats or sh, make sure to place the cooked meat on a clean

platter. Don’t use the same platter you used to carry the food out to the grill. Wash the utensils
used in grilling after the food is turned for the last time on the grill, as well as spatulas and
spoons used for stir-frying or turning meat as it cooks.

Make sure to wash your hands after handling raw meats or raw eggs. Washing hands with
soap and water, or using a pre-moistened antibacterial towelette is absolutely necessary after
you have touched raw meat or raw eggs. Not washing hands and surfaces while cooking is a
major cause of cross-contamination.

CLEAN

Wash your hands and work surfaces frequently when you are cooking. Washing with soap
and warm water for at least 15 seconds, then dry with a paper towel.

CHILL

Chilling food is very important. The danger zone where bacteria multiply is between 40oF and
140oF (4oC and 6oC). Your refrigerator should be set to 40oF (4oC) or below; your freezer should
be 0oF (-17oC) or below. Simple rule: serve hot foods hot, cold foods cold. Use chang dishes
or hot plates to keep food hot while serving. Use ice water baths to keep cold foods cold. Never
let any food sit at room temperature for more than 2 hours - 1 hour if the ambient temperature
is 90oF (32oC) or above. When packing for a picnic, make sure the foods are already chilled
when they go into the insulated hamper. The hamper won’t chill food - it just keeps food cold
when properly packed with ice. Hot cooked foods should be placed in shallow containers and
immediately refrigerated so they cool rapidly. Make sure to cover foods after they are cool.

NOTE: Special considerations must be made when using venison or other wild game, since it

can become heavily contaminated during eld dressing. Venison is often held at temperatures

that could potentially allow bacteria to grow, such as when it is being transported. Refer to
the USDA Meat and Poultry Department for further questions or information on meat and food
safety.

FOOD SAFETY

Pasta may be the ultimate comfort food. And it’s certainly one of the most versatile
foods there is. It can be a main dish, side dish, salad or even a dessert!

Buying pasta in a store is a nice convenience, but there is something special about
making it at home. Not only is it a healthy, preservative free option, but most people

agree that homemade pasta has a better avor. You can even enhance the avor by

adding things to the pasta itself … spinach, beets, peppers, herbs, saffron. Plus you
can’t beat the prep time: homemade pasta only takes 3 minutes to cook!

The process is easy. It can be a fun family project that kids enjoy helping with.

Just follow these steps:
. Form a mound with the dry ingredients and make a well in the center.

. Add the liquid ingredients into the well. Using a fork or bench scraper, mix the dry
and liquid ingredients by dragging the dry ingredients into the center. Keep doing this
until you have formed a sticky dough ball.

. On a oured surface, knead the dough ball by pushing down with the heel of your
hand then give the dough a quarter turn. Repeat this until the dough is smooth,
elastic, even in color and no longer sticky.

PASTA!

.

DOUGH CONSISTENCY You know when you’re nished kneading the dough when

the ball of dough has a soft texture. It should feel moist, but not stick to your ngers.

.

LET IT REST! When you have your dough ball, set it aside to rest for 15-30 minutes.

While resting, wrap it in cellophane wrap or cover it with a damp towel (or paper towel) to

keep it from drying out. Resting gives the our time to fully absorb the water.

.

WATER If the recipe that you are using calls for water, add it last in portions. Depending

on egg size and accuracy of our measurement, you may not need the entire amount of

water in the recipe.

.

FLOUR & WATER RATIO Don’t be afraid to use our. If after resting, the dough feels

too damp add a little our and knead it a little more (don’t worry, if you add too much you

can add more water or olive oil to balance it).

.

FLOUR IS YOUR BEST TOOL Before rolling out the dough or cutting the sheets,

sprinkle the rollers with our to keep the dough from sticking. This will also help the

dough separate when you cut the pasta.

.

Before cutting the dough and between changing the roller settings, dredge the dough

sheet in some our. This will also help to cut the dough better.

.

Always use plenty of boiling water so the pasta does not stick.

.

1/2 lb (0.22 kg) of noodles will require at least 2 quarts of water, 1 lb (0.5 kg) of pasta

will require 6 quarts.

.

Add 1 teaspoon of salt for each quart of water.

.

Always bring the water to a full, rolling boil before adding pasta or it will not cook

properly.

.

Cooking time will vary based on the size, weight and ingredients of the noodles.

.

Homemade noodles take very little time to cook and should be tested after 3-4 minutes.

.

Pasta should be cooked “Al Dente.” This means it should not be mushy, but tender, yet

slightly hard to bite. Test the pasta frequently to test for doneness.

.

It is better that the noodles be slightly undercooked than overcooked.

.

Once pasta is cooked, drain it but never rinse.

.

For the best pasta dishes, add sauce to the drained noodles and serve immediately.

PASTA COOKING TIPS

-6-

-7-

After preparing the ravioli, either cook the ravioli immediately, per recipe or refrigerate or
freeze for later use.

.

Boil ravioli in plenty of salted water for approximately 4 to 5 minutes. After tasting to

make sure they are adequately cooked, remove from the heat and drain

.

For temporary storage while preparing additional ravioli, store in a single layer on

parchment paper on a baking sheet and cover with damp paper towel to prevent the
ravioli from drying. Place in the refrigerator.

.

For long term storage, place ravioli in a single layer on parchment paper on a baking

sheet and freeze until solid. Once frozen, the ravioli can be vacuum sealed and stored
in the freezer for 3-4 months.

RAVIOLI PREPARATION & STORAGE

CAUTION! It is important to follow the “Food Safety” guidelines outlined in this
manual. For the most up to date instruction visit the USDA website.

CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

.

Fully disassemble the Ravioli Rolling Pin. Remove and dry debris from the Ravioli

Pin and the Rolling Pin Cover. Wash the Ravioli Rolling Pin in hot soapy water

immediately after use. Use only a plastic scouring pad if pasta residue is difcult to

wash off. Rinse well and dry it completely with a towel. Store the Ravioli Rolling Pin
in a drawer or cupboard. DO NOT put the Ravioli Rolling Pin in the dishwasher. The
heating cycle will dry out the wood and the wash cycle will saturate the Ravioli Pin.

.

TIP: Do not leave the Ravioli Rolling Pin in water to soak. Be sure to dry it completely

before storing.

.

Only the Rolling Pin Cover is top-rack dishwasher safe.
