- To make Filling: In a bowl, mix pumpkin, Cremona fruit in mustard syrup, parmesan cheese, crushed amaretti cookies, bread crumbs, nutmeg, salt, and brandy.
- To make Pasta: In a food processor, whirl 2 c. flour and salt to blend; add in Large eggs and egg yolks, and whirl till dough holds together (or possibly in a bowl, mix ingredients with a fork). Scrape pasta dough onto a lightly floured board and roll to coat with flour. Knead till dough feels smooth, adding flour as required to prevent sticking, about 1 minute if mixed in a food processor, 15 min if stirred. Cover dough with plastic wrap and let rest 10 to 15 min.
- Divide dough in half and shape each portion into a smooth ball. Roll each ball through a pasta machine to 1/16-inch thick, or possibly roll on a floured board. With a floured 2 3/4-inch round cutter, cut out 48 to 50 pasta rounds. Reroll dough as needed; throw away excess.
- Spoon an equal portion of filling onto center of each pasta round (about 1 tsp.). Moisten pasta rims with water, fold over to enclose filling, and press edges with fork tines to seal. Arrange filled pasta on a floured surface (or possibly 10- by 15-inch baking pans, if making ahead); let dry 10 min, turn over, and dry 20 min longer (or possibly cover airtight and chill).
- Bring 4 qts water to a boil in a 7- to 8-qt pan over high heat; add in half the pasta and cook, stirring occasionally, till tender to bite, 8 to 10 min. As they are cooked, transfer with a slotted spoon to a rimmed ovenproof platter; cover with foil and keep hot on an electric warming tray or possibly in a 250 degrees oven. Repeat to cook remaining pasta.
- To make Sauce: In an 8- to 10-inch nonstick frying pan over high heat, heat butter. Add in sage leaves and stir often till darker green, about 30 seconds. Immediately, pour over the filled pasta, sprinkle with 1/2 c. parmesan cheese, and add in salt and pepper to taste.
- This recipe yields 10 to 12 servings.
- Comments: Cremona fruit in mustard syrup is available at Italian food markets and upscale delicatessens. Instead of making the pasta (steps 2 and 3), you can use 48 to 50 gyoza (Japanese equivalent to potstickers) skins; moisten edges with water and press with fingers to seal. Don't dry (step 4); drape with plastic wrap as shaped. Cook filled gyoza only 2 to 3 min (step 5). If filling pasta or possibly gyoza skins up to 1 day ahead, refrigerateairtight; freeze up to 6 weeks. Or possibly purchase about 3 pounds cheese-filled ravioli and serve with the sauce.
