Recipe For Three Cheese Butternut Ravioli with Lobster Mushrooms

Recently, I received a package from Marx Foods containing five different kinds of dried wild mushrooms. My mission was to create a wonderful new recipe using one or all of the varieties. The varieties included chanterelle, porcini, matsusake, lobster and black trumpet mushrooms. I spent about 20 minutes just smelling the open bags. It was like Christmas! My sons all thought I was nuts.

So, after doing a bit of research, I came up with this recipe. It is vegetarian and totally delicious.

This is a homemade ravioli with butternut squash in the pasta dough, filled with lobster mushrooms, ricotta, asiago, and marscapone. They are covered in a butter/truffle oil sauce with garlic, more lobster mushrooms and summer savory. It’s different from most butternut raviolis in that there is squash in the actual pasta, not in the filling.
