The difference
Ravioli vs Cappelletti
Ravioli is the broad term: two sheets of pasta sealed around a filling, cut square or round and laid flat. Cappelletti is folded rather than layered, a square of dough wrapped around the filling and pinched into a small peaked hat, named for the medieval cap it resembles. Ravioli stays flat, cappelletti stands up.
