Pumpkin Ravioli With Sage Butter Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Combine flour, eggs, and salt in the bowl of a food processor; pulse until dough holds together. Transfer to a clean work surface and knead until smooth, about 10 minutes. If dough feels too dry, add water, a little at a time, and continue kneading. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Wash pumpkin, slice into 8 pieces, and discard seeds. Transfer pumpkin slices to the prepared baking sheet and cover with another sheet of foil to create a steaming pouch.
• Cook pumpkin in the preheated oven until tender, about 30 minutes. Remove and let cool.
• While pumpkin is cooling, heat oil in a small pan over medium heat. Add onion and sage; cook and stir until onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Scoop pumpkin flesh out of the skin and into a stand mixer. Add onion mixture and heavy cream; beat for a bit until mixture cools down. Mix in egg, salt, and pepper; set filling aside.
• Lightly flour a work surface. Remove pasta dough from the refrigerator and divide into 8 equal portions. Shape each portion into an oval-shaped flat disc. Run each disc through a pasta roller until it reaches the desired thickness and you have 8 long sheets of pasta. Lightly dust each sheet with flour.
• Lay one sheet of pasta on your work surface. Drop tablespoonfuls of filling for each ravioli evenly down the length of the sheet, then lay a second sheet of pasta on top. Use your fingers to press down and seal the pasta around each bit of filling, and cut ravioli with a pasta cutter or round glass. Repeat three more times with remaining 6 sheets of pasta and filling.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook ravioli in batches in the boiling water until tender yet firm to the bite, 3 to 5 minutes per batch.
• Meanwhile, heat butter and sage for sauce in a large saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring frequently, until butter is browned, fragrant, and foamy, with brown bits in it, 5 to 10 minutes. Be careful not to burn it. Season with salt and pepper. Add cooked ravioli to the sauce and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Spread hazelnuts onto a baking tray. Toast hazelnuts in oven until light golden brown and fragrant, about 5 to 7 minutes. Allow to cool completely. Coarsely chop the cooled hazelnuts and set aside.
• In a 10 or 12-inch saute pan with high sides, bring 2 quarts of salted water to a boil. Add the vegetable oil to prevent the ravioli from sticking to one another. Add ravioli and cook for 4 minutes or until they float to the top. Using a spider strainer, carefully remove ravioli to a large platter and tent with foil to keep warm.
• In a small saute pan, melt the butter. When butter is sizzling and starts to brown, tear sage leaves into the pan and fry for about 20 seconds. Remove from heat and stir in nutmeg. Pour butter sauce over ravioli and sprinkle with toasted hazelnuts. Grate amaretti cookies over the dish and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Place pumpkin on pan, cut sides up, drizzle with olive oil and generously season with brown sugar, salt and pepper. Roast for 35 to 45 minutes, or until soft. Allow to cool slightly.
• Scoop out the flesh of the pumpkin into the bowl of a food processor. Add egg and nutmeg, and purée until smooth. You should have about 3 cups (1 ½ pounds) purée total. Set aside 1/3 cup pumpkin purée for the sauce.
• Dust a work surface with semolina flour. Lay out a sheet of pasta, then place 2 teaspoons of filling every few inches. Brush around the filling with water, then place a second pasta sheet over the top. Press the top sheet of pasta down around the mounds of filling. Cut 2 ½-inch square ravioli with a large ravioli stamp or sharp knife, trimming as needed, and crimp around the edges with a fork to seal individual raviolis.
• Bring a large pot of water to boil and season generously with salt. Drop in ravioli a few at a time and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, until soft but still al dente. Set aside ¼ cup pasta cooking water, then use a large slotted spoon to remove the cooked ravioli to a plate.
• Make the sauce: Heat the butter, sage and walnuts in a medium skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the butter browns, about 5 minutes. Add the reserved 1/3 cup pumpkin filling, a few grinds of nutmeg and a pinch of salt. Stir to combine and sizzling, then add 2 tablespoons reserved pasta cooking water, stirring until sauce is glossy and smooth; thin with additional pasta water if desired. Spoon sauce onto plates and top with ravioli and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar.

Steps:

• For the filling: Add the ricotta, Parmigiano and eggs and sprinkle with salt in a bowl. Adjust seasoning if needed. Put the filling in a pastry bag and reserve.
• For the pasta: Set the pasta roller on the widest setting (#1). Start with half the pasta dough; keep the other half covered until ready to use. Using your hands, flatten the dough as much as you can to facilitate it going through the pasta roller. Run the dough through the roller, twice dusting it in between rolls if it feels sticky. Fold the dough into thirds and turn it 90 degrees (a quarter turn) and run it through the pasta machine 2 to 3 times. Move the roller to the next setting (#2) and run the pasta through. Dust lightly with flour if the dough feels sticky. Continue to run the dough through the machine reducing the opening (or moving the setting to the next larger number) in between every roll. Stop when you get to the correct thinness, this will usually be around number 5 or 6 on the dial, but every machine is different, you will have to be the judge of your own pasta thickness.
• To assemble the ravioli: Lay out the dough on a flat surface. Brush the lower half of the dough (the part that is closest to you) lightly with water. This is the glue that will hold the ravioli together. Use the glue sparingly, if you use too much the pasta will slide and not stick. Pipe 1-inch balls of filling onto the pasta that has been brushed with water, leaving about 2 inches between each ball. Fold the top half of the pasta down over the filling to meet the bottom edge. Using your index fingers, poke around each filling ball to seal the ravioli shut, AND to make sure that there are no air bubbles. Using a fluted round cutter or a fluted pastry wheel or even a drinking glass, cut out each ravioli. Transfer to a sheet tray dusted with semolina or polenta and reserve until ready to use.
• To cook the ravioli and make the sauce: Add the butter to a large saute pan and bring to a medium heat. Add 1 cup of chicken stock and season with salt. Shake the pan to incorporate the butter and stock, and simmer until the stock has reduced a bit and the sauce looks velvety and is the consistency of heavy cream. If the sauce thickens too much, adjust the consistency with chicken stock. Add the sage and season with salt.
• Add the ravioli to the pot of boiling water and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Carefully remove the ravioli from the cooking water and put them immediately into the sauce. Bring the sauce to a boil, shaking frequently to be sure that the ravioli don'(TM)t stick to the bottom of the pan.
• Transfer the ravioli to a serving platter. Mangia Bene!
• Put the flour on a clean, dry work surface. Make a hole (this is also called a well) in the center of the flour pile that is about 8 inches wide (bigger is definitely better here). Crack all of the eggs and the yolk into the hole and add the olive oil, salt and water.
• Using a fork, beat the eggs together with the olive oil, salt and water. Using the fork, begin to incorporate the flour into the egg mixture; be careful not to break the sides of the well or the egg mixture will run all over your board and you will have a big mess! Also, don't worry about the lumps. When enough flour has been incorporated into the egg mixture that it will not run all over the place when the sides of the well are broken, begin to use your hands to really get everything well combined. If the mixture is tight and dry, wet your hands and begin kneading with wet hands. When the mixture has really come together to a homogeneous mixture, THEN you can start kneading.
• When kneading it is VERY important to put your body weight into it, get on top of the dough to really stretch it and not tear the dough. Using the heels of your palms, roll the dough to create a very smooooooth, supple dough. When done, the dough should look VERY smooth and feel almost velvety. Kneading will usually take from 8 to 10 minutes for an experienced kneader and 10 to 15 for an inexperienced kneader. Put your body weight into it, you need to knead! This is where the perfect, toothsome texture of your pasta is formed. Get in there and have fun!
• When the pasta has been kneaded to the perfect consistency, wrap it in plastic and let rest for at least 1 hour. If using immediately do not refrigerate.
• Roll and cut the pasta into desired shape. How smooth and supple!

Steps:

• cook the ravioli in salted boiling water.
• While the ravioli will be ready in 5 mins, melt the butter on low heat.
