Usually, the pasta only needs to boil for 4-6 minutes, or even less, when making fresh or homemade ravioli.
Prior to adding the ravioli, you should bring the water to a boil. However, you should watch out that the water doesn’t get too hot. Your ravioli will pop open if the water is too hot. Instead of being at a rolling boil, the water should be at a gentle simmer.
Additionally, you should refrain from stirring your ravioli too often while it is cooking. Your stirring may cause the pasta to pop open.
Simply adhere to the boiling instructions on the package if using frozen ravioli. They typically take only a few minutes longer to cook than fresh ravioli.

Be careful when you put the ravioli into the pot of boiling water. Gently slide the dumplings into the water with a spoon or a ladle. If you dump the ravioli in quickly, boiling water may splash up out of the pot and scald you. ⧼thumbs_response⧽ Helpful 5 Not Helpful 3
Be careful if you have celiac disease or you are lactose-intolerant. Ravioli contains gluten unless stated otherwise, and most ravioli is filled with some type of cheese. ⧼thumbs_response⧽ Helpful 1 Not Helpful 0
