Ingredients
  

For the Sauce
  • 1 cup Dry White Wine Substitute with vegetable or chicken broth for non-alcoholic version.
  • 1 medium Shallot Finely chopped.
  • 6 whole Whole Black Peppercorns Can replace with fresh ground pepper.
  • 2 sprigs Rosemary (Fresh) Use dried rosemary sparingly as substitute.
  • 2 cups Vegetable Stock Chicken stock is an option for non-vegetarians.
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream Half-and-half is a lighter alternative.
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh Rosemary (finely chopped) Thyme can be used as an alternative.
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese (freshly grated) Pecorino Romano makes a great substitute.
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt Feel free to use sea salt or table salt.
For the Ravioli
  • 16 ounces Butternut Squash Ravioli Swap with cheese or mushroom ravioli as needed.

Equipment

  • Large skillet
  • pot
  • Fine-mesh sieve
  • non-stick pan

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large skillet, heat over medium heat, pour in the dry white wine, and add the finely chopped shallot along with the whole black peppercorns and a sprig of fresh rosemary. Allow the mixture to simmer until it reduces to about 1 tablespoon, around 3-5 minutes.
  2. Pour in the vegetable stock carefully, stirring as it combines with the wine mixture. Let this simmer gently, reducing the stock by half, which should take about 15 minutes. Strain the liquid through a fine mesh sieve to remove the solids.
  3. Return the strained liquid to the skillet and stir in the heavy cream, cooking while stirring frequently until the sauce thickens to your liking, around 5-7 minutes.
  4. In a large pot, bring salted water to a rolling boil. Gently add the butternut squash ravioli and cook until they float to the surface, roughly 2-5 minutes for fresh ravioli.
  5. Melt unsalted butter in a small non-stick pan and add panko breadcrumbs, toasting until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes; stir frequently.
  6. Stir the finely chopped rosemary and freshly grated Parmesan cheese into the creamy sauce. Add the cooked ravioli and gently toss to coat.
