METHOD:

For the Tolosa Bean Ravioli:
Cook the beans in the usual way with their “sacraments” and vegetables. When beans are almost cooked, sauté garlic in oil with paprika and with beans. Transfer to a Vitamix blender, purée,  strain, and fill a piping bag with creamed beans. Pipe beans onto center of wafers, mositen edges, and fold up like a present or package to form ravioli. 

For the Cabbage Broth:
Heat a combination oven to 150°C. On a sheet tray, combine cabbage and bacon. Roast 40 minutes, turning occasionally to brown evenly. When browned, transfer to saucepan, cover with water, and simmer 2 hours. Strain through a chinois. Season with salt. Keep warm. 

Foe the Alginate Solution:
In a nonreactive container, use a handheld blender to dissolve alginate in 4 liters water. Strain through a chinois into another container. Set aside solution for 3 hours, until bubbles disappear. 

For the “Sacraments” Spheres:
To a Vitamix blender, add sausages and season with salt, sugar, and paprika; purée. Strain through a chinois. Measure 1 liter of purée. In a nonreactive container, combine the purée and gluconate. Thicken with xanthan. Using a spherification spoon, spherify “sacraments” purée into bean shapes in the Alginate Solutions for 2 minutes. When outer membrane forms on “beans,” rinse with water; drain. 

To Assemble and Serve:
Heat combination oven to 160°C on steam. Place 3 Ravioli on a greased sheet tray. Steam 1 minute. In a serving bowl, arrange Ravioli and “Sacraments” Spheres. Top with three rings peppers. Finish with 3 marigolds. Serve with a small jug of Cabbage Broth.
