Rehydrate the dried porcini mushrooms by placing them in 2 cups of warm water for about 15 minutes. Once softened, strain the mushrooms through a fine mesh sieve lined with a paper towel or cheesecloth to remove any sediment. Reserve the soaking liquid and chop the porcini mushrooms into small pieces.
Slice the cremini mushrooms thinly and set aside. Finely chop the shallots and mince the garlic cloves.
Heat the olive oil and butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the shallots and garlic, and sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and softened.
Add the chopped porcini mushrooms, sliced cremini mushrooms, thyme sprigs, and bay leaf to the pot. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms release their moisture and begin to brown.
Pour in the reserved porcini soaking liquid and vegetable stock. Stir in the soy sauce, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
While the broth simmers, cook the ravioli according to the package instructions or until tender if homemade. Drain and set aside.
Before serving, remove the thyme sprigs and bay leaf from the mushroom broth.
To serve, divide the cooked ravioli evenly among bowls and ladle the hot mushroom broth over the pasta. Garnish with chopped parsley and grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.
