How To Make Brown Butter Sage Sauce
Best with gnocchi or pasta, this burro bruno e salvia or brown butter sage sauce mixes earthy and slightly peppery hints with a zesty note.
Ingredients
- 1 stick organic salted butter
- 14 fresh sage leaves
- black pepper, freshly cracked, to taste
- ½ lemon, optional
- ¾ lb butternut squash ravioli, or potato gnocchi
Instructions
-
Cut the butter into large pieces and add it to a light-colored pan over medium-low flame.
-
As soon as the butter starts to foam up add the sage leaves and cook together for 3 to 5 minutes.
-
The butter will foam up and start turning brown. Do not touch it and do not stir.
-
The moment the foam subsides it remove from heat. The sage should be crispy by now. Hit it with a squeeze of lemon juice, if desired.
-
Add the cooked ravioli to the butter sage sauce and gently toss to coat. Add a little bit of the reserved pasta water if needed.
-
Serve with black pepper on top and enjoy.
