Pasta Dough

Filling

Brown Butter Sauce

Method

Pasta Dough

  1. 1

    Make the Pasta Dough

    In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Create a well in the center, add the eggs, and mix until a dough forms. Knead for about 5 minutes until smooth. Wrap in plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Filling

  1. 2

    Prepare the Filling

    Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the butternut squash in half, remove seeds, and place cut-side down on a baking sheet. Roast for 25-30 minutes until tender. Once cool, scoop the flesh into a bowl, add goat cheese, nutmeg, salt, and black pepper. Mash until smooth.

Assembling Agnolotti

  1. 3

    Fill and Cut Pasta

    Roll out the pasta dough into thin sheets. Place small dollops of filling onto one sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Moisten the edges with water, fold the dough over, and seal tightly. Cut into squares or circles.

Cooking Agnolotti

  1. 4

    Cook the Agnolotti

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the agnolotti for 3-4 minutes until they float to the surface. Remove with a slotted spoon.

Brown Butter Sauce

  1. 5

    Make Brown Butter Sauce

    In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and continue cooking until it turns golden brown and nutty, about 5 minutes. Add the sage leaves and toasted hazelnuts, stirring to combine.

Serve

  1. 6

    Serve the Dish

    Plate the cooked agnolotti and drizzle with the brown butter sauce. Top with additional toasted hazelnuts if desired.
