Latina Fresh makes just the two gluten free ravioli and today I’m trying out the beef. I’ve only had this once because I don’t often see the beef ravioli in stores. My local Coles has no fresh gluten-free pasta, and my local Woolworths only has the spinach and ricotta. When I’m visiting a new area I do tend to pop in to the supermarket to look at what is available.
The taste
The pasta has a good texture, it’s firm and nicely chewy – it hasn’t turned to mush. Like most filled gluten free ravioli it does rapidly fall apart as it approaches being fully cooked. I took mine off the pan at four minutes and 30 seconds to try to prevent that. However, I still had a number of pieces that burst.
The beef filling has a good flavour, it kind of reminds me of a beef pie. Texture wise the filling is a bit average, just a puree, but the flavour is definitely good.

I served it with a spicy Arrabiata sauce by Barilla (it’s my favourite and no onions) and some grated mozzarella.
THE VERDICT
Would I buy Latina Fresh gluten free beef ravioli again? Yes. I think it’s handy as a quick lunch, especially now that we are often working from home. Having something interesting to eat makes the day a little more bearable. At around $8 a packet for two serves it’s a little on the pricey side, but not too bad if it’s just for two people.
The real question is, can I buy it again? It can be rather tricky to find! For me, neither of my local stores stock the beef ravioli. However, I have come across it in Coles in Sydney’s CBD. So I know where I need to go for my gluten-free ravioli fix!
