Café 5 Recipe: Chef Fabio Viviani's Sweet Corn Ravioli

Celebrity chef Fabio Viviani, owner of Siena Tavern in Chicago’s River North, stopped by Café 5 to discuss being inducted into the Chefs Hall of Fame by the Chicago Culinary Museum and share the recipe for his sweet corn ravioli.

Ingredients:

(for ravioli sauce and to finish the dish)

  • ½ C Roasted Corn Kernels
  • 1 C Chioddini Mushrooms
  • 1 T Sliced Garlic
  • 4 T Butter
  • ½ C White Wine
  • TT Truffle Oil

Directions:

  • In a large pot filled halfway with salted water bring to a boil. Meanwhile in a large sautépan, melt butter, and cook garlic for one minute over high heat.
  • Add mushrooms and corn. Sauté until mushrooms are tender, about three minutes. At this point start cooking the ravioli in the pasta water. 
  • Deglaze pan with white wine. Once wine is reduced, place ravioli in sauce, using a little bit of the pasta water to adjust the thickness of the sauce. 
  • Once ready, garnish with truffle oil and serve on desired plate.
