How to Use Pumpkin Part II


Pumpkin, Sage and Ricotta Ravioli with Cumin Rubbed Lamb Chops

So, I needed something to do with one of the other pumpkin from the pumpkin pie project a few weeks earlier. I decided to make ravioli. I followed the recipe here with a couple of exceptions. Above, plated with lamb chops and drizzled with balsamic vinegar in place of sage butter.

I made my own ricotta with lactose free milk. It sounds over the top, but its quite easy: boil milk, add lemon juice and then pour thru cheesecloth. Do this the day ahead and let cool in the fridge.
I also don't own a pasta maker so I bought a couple sheets of fresh "lasagna" from the fresh pasta store in Atwater and used that as the sheets of fresh pasta for the ravioli. It worked well.
