Pasta Dough

Sage Butter

Garnish

Method

Pasta Dough

  1. 1

    Make the Dough

    In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Create a well in the center and add the eggs. Gradually mix the flour into the eggs until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth. Wrap in plastic wrap and let rest for 30 minutes.

Filling

  1. 2

    Prepare the Filling

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the butternut squash in half, scoop out the seeds, and place cut-side down on a baking sheet. Roast for 30-40 minutes until tender. Once cooled, scoop the flesh into a bowl and mash. Add ricotta, asiago, salt, pepper, nutmeg, and chopped sage. Mix well.

Assembly

  1. 3

    Fill the Ravioli

    Roll out the pasta dough into thin sheets. Place teaspoons of the filling about 1 inch apart on one sheet. Brush the edges with water, then place another sheet on top. Press to seal and cut into squares. Repeat until all dough and filling are used.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Cook the Ravioli

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the ravioli in batches for about 3-4 minutes, until they float to the top. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.

Sage Butter

  1. 5

    Make the Sage Butter

    In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the fresh sage leaves and cook until the butter is golden brown and fragrant, about 5 minutes.

Serve

  1. 6

    Plate the Dish

    Toss the cooked ravioli in the sage butter. Serve topped with chopped pistachios.
