The filling in this recipe is seasonal, but the simple brown butter sage sauce is classic. So while it’s great for Butternut Squash Ravioli, you can try it with mushroom, cheese, and even meat filled ravioli.

Your tool choice for making ravioli is completely up to you. We like pasta forms/makers because they give you uniform, air-tight pieces and utilize all your handmade pasta. The Ravioli Wheel is great for making your own shapes, different pasta, and can be used for other dishes like pie! The pasta stamp is cute and small. Just make sure your able to scoop out the same amount of filling for each piece.
