BUTTERNUT SQUASH RAVIOLI WITH FRIED SAGE LEAVES

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, cook the squash purée over medium heat, stirring frequently, until it stops releasing moisture and is reduced to 1 1/4 cups, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl to cool.
• In a small saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add shallots; cook, stirring, until soft and beginning to brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Add chopped sage; cook, stirring, 1 minute more. Remove from heat; combine with squash. Season with salt and pepper; stir in nutmeg. Let cool completely.
• Generously dust two baking sheets with semolina; set aside. Divide pasta dough into 4 pieces; cover unused pieces with plastic wrap to keep them from drying out. Dust a piece of dough lightly with flour. Using a pasta maker, roll dough through the widest opening. Fold dough into thirds, and pass through machine again, layered side first. Repeat process three or four more times, until dough is smooth. Continue running the dough through the remaining settings, using additional flour sparingly, until pasta sheet is very thin. Dough should be at least 5 inches wide.
• Place dough on a lightly floured surface; halve crosswise. Cover half with plastic wrap. On the other half, place scant tablespoons of squash filling 1 inch apart in 2 rows. Using a pastry brush dipped in water, lightly moisten pasta around each mound of filling. Top with the remaining half sheet of pasta; press around mounds to eliminate air inside and to seal. Cut pasta into 2 1/2-inch squares. Brush away excess flour. Place ravioli on prepared baking sheets. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
• For fried sage leaves: In a small saucepan, heat oil over medium-high heat. Drop a few sage leaves at a time into the hot oil, and fry until oil around leaves stops bubbling but before leaves brown, about 5 seconds. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a paper-towel lined plate; set aside.
• Bring a large stockpot of water to a boil. Add salt and ravioli. Gently stir once, and cook at a gentle boil until the ravioli have floated to the top and are just tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, divide evenly among four plates.
• In a small saucepan, melt the remaining 4 tablespoons butter over medium heat, and cook until lightly browned and aroma is nutty, 6 to 8 minutes. Drizzle over ravioli, and garnish with cheese and fried sage leaves. Serve immediately.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH RAVIOLI WITH SAGE BROWN BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Directions:.
• In a sauté pan, over medium heat cook 5 slices of pancetta until crispy. Remove the pancetta from the pan and set aside.
• In the same pan, melt ½ tablespoon of butter. Add the shallots and sauté for 1 minute. Add the mashed butternut squash and cook until the mixture is slightly dry, about 2 minutes. Stir in ¼ cup chicken broth and continue to cook about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in 3 tablespoons cheese and nutmeg, to taste. Season with salt and pepper. Cool completely (before putting the filling into the ravioli).
• Make pasta, roll and cut into 3-inch rectangles. Place a teaspoon of the filling in the center of each pasta/wonton rectangle. Fold in half and seal completely.
• Start boiling a pot of salted water.
• In a sauté pan, melt the remaining 5 tablespoons of butter. Add the sage to the butter and continue to cook until the butter starts to brown. Add ¼ cup of chicken broth and cook another 10 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Add the pasta to the pot of boiling salted water. Cook until al dente. This will take about 5 minutes or until the pasta floats. Tip: Even if they are floating, taste test the pasta portion of the ravioli before you drain the pot.
• Crumble the pancetta.
• Remove the pasta from the water and drain well.
• Single Servings: Place some of the pasta in the center of each serving plate. Spoon the butter sauce over the pasta. Sprinkle each plate with remaining cheese and parsley.
• Family Style: Put half of the raviolis in a big serving platter, pour half of the butter sauce (6 pieces of sage) and half of the pancetta over the ravioli; than repeat with remaining half of ingredients. Sprinkle remaining cheese and garnish with parsley.
• Give each person an amaretti cookie to crumble on their pasta (and an extra to snack on).
• Note:
• I'm still working on 'perfecting' this recipe.
• You can roast the squash or microwave it. If you microwave it use the 'fresh vegetable' setting. It takes me about 10 min, but every microwave is different. You can peel the squash or cook it in it's skin, it's doesn't make a difference. You may want to put it in for a couple minutes before you slice it in half.
• To speed up cooling the mixture spread it out on a plate and put it in the refrigerator.
• If using a Kitchen Aid pasta roller, roll out to Level 4. The 5th setting is a little thin.
• While you're stuffing/folding the ravioli start the water boiling and the butter sauce. Every so often swirl around the butter to prevent it from burning.
• Add some oil to the boiling water to prevent the ravioli from sticking.
• The wontons will boil quicker than the pasta.
• If you cook the ravioli a day or two later: Make sure you dust them with flour right after you finish your folding. The next day, don't let the ravioli sit on the counter while boiling the water, they'll get mushy; keep them in the fridge until the last moment.
• If you have left over pasta from cutting your ravioli and extra squash filling....boil the pasta, drain it and mix in the squash. It makes a great snack/lunch.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH RAVIOLI WITH SAGE-BROWN BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place the squash cut side up on a baking sheet. Place 1 tablespoon butter in the hollow of each half. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Cover the squash with a sheet of aluminum foil tucking in the edges.
• Bake squash in preheated oven until tender and easily pierced with a fork, 45 to 65 minutes.
• Scoop the cooked squash into a bowl, and mash until smooth. Mix in the allspice, nutmeg, cinnamon, and Parmesan cheese until well blended. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Fill a deep pot with lightly salted water and bring to a boil.
• To make the ravioli, place a wonton wrapper on a clean, flat surface. Brush edges with the egg white. Place about 1 tablespoon of the squash mixture in the middle of the wonton. Cover with a second wonton wrapper. Repeat with remaining wonton wrappers and squash mixture until all have been used.
• Drop the ravioli into the boiling water, and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until tender. Remove, drain, and keep warm until sauce is prepared.
• To make the sauce, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the sage. Continue to cook and stir until the sage is crispy but not browned. Add salt and pepper to taste. Place 6 to 8 raviolis on serving plates, and drizzle with sauce.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH RAVIOLI WITH BROWN BUTTER SAGE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil. Place the squash on the prepared baking sheet and roast until easily pierced with the tip of a knife, about 1 hour. Set aside until cool enough to handle.
• Cut the roasted squash in half and remove the seeds with a spoon. Scoop 2 cups of the roasted squash flesh into a food processor (reserve any extra for another use). Add the grated Parmesan and nutmeg, season with salt and pepper and process until smooth. Check the consistency of the puree; if it is slightly wet and loose, add 2 tablespoons of the flour and process again. Check the consistency and add the third tablespoon, if needed. Transfer the filling to a bowl.
• Set up a pasta roller attachment on a stand mixer (or secure a hand roller on the side of your work surface). Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the dough until it is thin enough to pass through the pasta roller. Set your roller to the widest setting. Turn on the pasta roller and pass the dough through once. Fold the rolled-out piece of dough over itself, then pass through the roller again. If the edges of the dough begin to fray or the dough is sticky or damp, lightly dust both sides with flour. Repeat four or five more times, until the dough is smooth.
• Adjust the roller to the second widest setting, dust both sides of the dough with flour, and pass it through twice without folding. Repeat rolling, adjusting to a thinner setting each time, until the dough is thin enough that it is slightly translucent. Once the dough gets too long to work with, cut it in half and work with one piece at a time. (Dust the resting dough piece with semolina and hold under a kitchen towel while you finish rolling the other piece.)
• Dust a baking sheet and work surface with semolina flour. Lay out one sheet of freshly rolled pasta on the prepared surface. Square off the ends and trim the pasta into 4 equal-sized sheets. Spoon tablespoon-sized mounds of filling in two rows down the length of one pasta sheet, leaving about 1 inch of space between each mound. Lightly dampen the pasta around the filling (with a mister or brush) and carefully drape a second sheet of pasta over the filling to cover completely. Press firmly around each mound to squeeze out the air and seal the pasta sheets together. Trim the edges and cut the sheet into individual ravioli with a pizza cutter or rolling pasta cutter. Place the finished ravioli on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat the filling and cutting process with the remaining two pasta sheets.
• Finish rolling out the remaining pasta dough and repeat the filling and cutting process. Formed ravioli may be held in the refrigerator, in a single layer and dusted with semolina, for 24 hours or frozen for up to 3 months.
• Put the butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. Allow the butter to cook, stirring occasionally, until it is amber in color, 7 to 10 minutes. As soon as the butter changes color, remove it from the heat and add the sage and garlic. Set aside for the flavors to develop.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of generously salted water to a rapid boil. Gently drop the ravioli into the boiling water and stir immediately. Leave the ravioli to cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 3 minutes.
• Once cooked, lift the ravioli from the water with a spider or slotted spoon and add to the butter sauce with 1/4 cup pasta water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Hold at a simmer for 1 minute, tossing the ravioli with the sauce to coat well.
• Remove the garlic clove from the sauce. Divide the ravioli between bowls, pouring some of the sauce into each. Top with lemon zest and Parmesan curls.
• Mound the flour in the center of a clean countertop or cutting board. Make a well in the center of the flour 3 to 4 inches wide.
• Crack the eggs into the well and add a pinch of salt. Using a fork, break the yolks and begin to beat the eggs as you would if making scrambled eggs.
• Continue stirring the eggs with a fork in large circles, slowly incorporating the flour. When the eggs form a thick mass and become difficult to stir, about 3 minutes, fold the loose flour from the edges into the pile with a bench scraper and knead until a smooth dough forms. Discard any excess flour.
• Shape the dough into a flat disk, wrap tightly with plastic wrap and set aside to rest for 20 minutes before rolling. If waiting more than 1 hour, refrigerate or freeze the dough. The dough will keep refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
