What Is Ravioli?
Ravioli are actually a type of pasta, which are made using a very thin dough. They are usually in a closed parcel shape, with a range of different fillings aside; with cheese being the most popular. It is usually served with a sauce or a broth.
Ingredients In Ravioli
When you take away the filling of the ravioli and just take a look at the ravioli dough itself – you really do not need many ingredients at all. In fact, the only ingredients you need to make the dough are:
- eggs
- flour
- oil
It really is that simple!

Is Ravioli Gluten Free?
Unfortunately, ravioli is not typically gluten-free. This is because most pasta dough is made using wheat flour, instead of gluten-free flour. As wheat is a gluten-containing grain, if you’re following a gluten-free diet, it’s best to stay away from typical ravioli. However, as ravioli is so popular, there are plenty of gluten-free options in stores such as Whole Foods.
Gluten Free Ravioli Brands
Most of the brands we’re going to be looking at are available from Whole Foods, whereas others are available at stores such as Walmart. Whether you’re looking for refrigerated ravioli or frozen ravioli – we’ll be taking a look at them all in our ravioli round-up!
Cappello’s
Cappello’s is a certified gluten-free brand.
