1TBSapple cider vinegar or lemon juice
Toasted breadcrumbs to serveoptional
Instructions
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil and prepare ravioli per package instructions (normally a boil at 3-4 minutes).
Melt the stick of butter in a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Cook for a couple of minutes and then add garlic, walnuts, sage leaves, and optional thyme. Let cook for couple more minutes, stirring to prevent burning. Remove walnuts and sage leaves once crispy, setting aside for topping later.
Add a large pinch of salt, a few twists of pepper, and nutmeg to the butter sauce. Still over medium heat, add white wine or apple cider to increase the liquid in the pan. Let bubble for a couple of minutes. Remove from heat and toss in your ravioli.
Serve topped with reserved crispy sage and walnuts. If desired, add toasted breadcrumbs for even more texture.
