I've had this butternut squash sitting on the counter all week and I thought "hey, why not try to make butternut squash ravioli?" I had never made ravioli before. I wouldn't say that it was a failure... I think the little raviolis turned out the way they were supposed to but I'm not sure that I like them. I tasted the filling and I tasted the dough and I wasn't fond of either so now I'm hesitant to cook them. It was a fun little experiment though.
Of course, at home I would have a food processor, which would make this a lot easier (I used a pastry cutter to squish the squash...) but I DID buy myself a little six inch rolling pin, which helps, and I was pretty much out of cheese, which also would have made them taste better. Cheese makes most things better. That just means I'll have to make a nice rich cheese sauce to pour over the top to help distract from the strangeness of these little whole wheat squash pockets.****
Anyhow, that was yesterday's adventure.
