Smoked Trout Ravioli

My new favorite use for leftover smoked trout!

In past years, when we’ve had extra smoked trout, one of the things I like to do is make trout hash.  I’ve also made mushrooms stuffed with chevre and smoked trout…and salmon cakes which could just as easily have been trout cakes, because both varieties were caught that day.  All of those are very yummy, and I’ll probably make one or two of them again soon, after the next successful trout trip.

But I wanted to do something new…and this is what I came up with.

Herb Layered Ravioli Filled with Goat Cheese, Garlic Scallions and Wilted Spinach

  

Those are thyme leaves (from the window box near my kitchen door).  I also used oregano, tarragon, and chives.  But I'm getting ahead of myself.

I've felt the urge to make fresh pasta lately, and I've seen, over the years, pasta with herb leaves pressed between the pasta layers.  So, in that fresh pasta mood, and with PLENTY of herbs (though not all are ready) to choose from, I set to work.
