Duccio Gelato - Pasta and Gelato Supplies
Duccio Gelato is located in an industrial stretch of Five Dock's Queens Road, 92 Queens Rd.
As I have Italian parents I rather fancy I know quite a lot about ravioli. I have yet to find pre-packaged ravioli in this country that comes close to either my mother's or my own home made versions. I have tried them all. However, by complete accident, I stopped in at Duccio one day to buy gelato for my boys , and noticed the hand written plastic containers with no labels in the freezer. Two varieties only. I took home the spinach and ricotta tubs. The big test is the quality of the pasta, and it is beautifully soft in texture. These are the best ravioli. A word of warning, the ravioli don't break in the water if you treat them right. You should not cook any ravioli too vigorously, drop the temperature a little once the boiling point is reached. Also, once cooked, do not tip into a colander, scoop each one out of the big pot into a colander. By the way, this is a family business and Mr Duccio makes the ravioli himself.
