Ingredients
  

  • 1 LB Spinach Tortelloni 22240
  • 2 TBSP Butter
  • 1 Shallot
  • 1 Cup Heavy Cream
  • 1 Cup Pumpkin Puree
  • 2 TBSP Sage roughly chopped
  • 1 TBSP Brown Sugar
  • ¼ Cup Toasted Pepitas
  • ¼ Cup Pomegranate Reduction *see notes
  • ¼ Cup Parmesan Cheese
  • Fresh Thyme stems removed
  • Salt & Pepper

Instructions
 

  • Prepare ingredients, roughly slice shallot.
  • In a medium sauté pan, heat 1 TBSP butter. Slice and add shallots and cook for 1-2 minutes. Add sage, cook for another 30 seconds.
  • To the sauté pan, add pumpkin puree, heavy cream, and brown sugar. Mix until evenly combined and heated. Set it aside but keep warm.
  • Bring a large pot of water to boil. Add Tortelloni and cook per instructions, about 3 minutes.
  • While water is coming to boil, heat a sauté pan on medium high heat. Heat the remaining 1 TBSP of butter and pinch of fresh thyme leaves.
  • Once ready, remove Tortelloni from water and gently toss in the butter for a few seconds to get color and browning on the Tortelloni.
  • To plate, spoon about ½-1 Cup of pumpkin cream sauce on bottom of the plate. Place 6-8 Tortelloni on the sauce. Garnish with toasted pepitas, sprinkle parmesan cheese and finish with 1 TBSP or so of pomegranate reduction over the top.

Notes

***Chef’s Notes***
  • If you can’t find pomegranate reduction, try heating pomegranate juice in a pan and slowly simmer until reduced by at least half. It should form a thick syrup consistency. Alternatively, you can use balsamic vinegar reduction.
  • You could use pumpkin pie filling in place of pumpkin puree if you want sweeter, more spiced flavors.
