1. In the bowl of your stand mixer, place all the ingredients, attach the hook and let it mix on low speed until it all comes together (about 10 minutes).
2. Place the dough and the crumbs onto your working bench and knead it until it comes together (about 5 min). It will look dry but keep kneading.

4. Once caramelized, flip them and repeat the same process.
5. Place them on a tray lined up with parchment paper and roast them in your oven for 15 min or until tender (don’t overcook them, you don’t want them to be mush).
6. Set them aside until ready.

Roasted pumpkin puree

1. Pre-heat your oven to 400F.

5. Peel the skin off and place the flesh in your high-speed blender with the cream, butter, salt and pepper.
6. Pulse it until nice and smooth, place it in a squeeze bottle and keep it aside until ready.

Sautéed squash dices

1. In a medium size stainless-steel pan, on medium heat, add the olive oil and the butter.
2. When foamy, add the pumpkin dices, garlic and thyme.
3. Season with salt and pepper.
4. Caramelize nicely and cook until soften.
5. Set it aside until ready.

Agnolotti

1. Cut you dough in half and roll the pasta dough down to your smallest settings on the pasta machine. Thinner the better.
2. Each half can be cut down to 2 sheets for a total of 4 sheets.
3. Pipe the ricotta mix along the bottom side of each sheet.
4. Gently fold the sheet over to cover the filling and cut out the pasta into small rectangles with a pasta wheel. Press the edges of each parcel together to seal them, then pinch them lightly to give them their classic 'pinched' shape.
5. Place them on a tray lined up with semolina and let them cure at open air for 10-20 min.

Herb Coulis

1. For this recipe I usually use herbs going bad but alternatively you can use fresh.
2. Place all the ingredients (but salt and pepper)  into a high-speed blender and pulse it until smooth.
