Jon Bennion on Instagram: "Want to know how to make multi-colored pasta? I have a whole story highlight (first one you see) that shows the process for one-sided pasta sheets, just like you see here with this two-colored cappelletti. So satisfying to cut those perfect circles, fold to align the sides, dimple the fat filling end, and bring the ends together into a circle. #pasta #ravioli #cappelletti #italianfood #homechef #italy #pastafresca #freshpasta #ilovepasta"
