DuClaw Brewing 62 Imperial Pumpkin Ale Ravioli

September 29, 2016 by MCM Mama Leave a Comment

Thank you DuClaw Brewing for sponsoring this post and sending me the DuClaw “62” Imperial Pumpkin Ale. All opinions and the ravioli recipe are my own.

Welcome to the September edition of “Cooking with Beer”! Each month DuClaw Brewing sends me a beer and a friend and I create a recipe. It’s a fun time to think outside the box and try a new beer and new food.  This month’s beer is “62”, an Imperial Pumpkin Ale.  Last year I made a wonderful bread pudding with this beer, so I wanted to try a main dish this time.

I’m not a huge fan of most pumpkin beers, but I don’t mind pumpkin if the beer has some complexities and other flavors. DuClaw’s “62” Imperial Pumpkin Ale definitely fits this definition. Because it’s an imperial ale, the alcohol content is higher (8.2% ABV), and this lends a sweetness to the pumpkin and spices. However, with that much alcohol, this is definitely not a session beer. It is, however, a wonderful beer to cook with!

When I decided to make a pumpkin ravioli, I had visions of making my own pasta as well. Yeah, well that didn’t happen. September is always crazy, sometimes it seems more so even than December. So, I had to rely on what I could buy at the store easily: wonton wrappers. They worked and the end result was tasty, but if you make your own pasta (and better yet, have one of those cool ravioli makers), it will be even better.

DuClaw 62 Pumpkin Ravioli

Ingredients

  • 1 C canned pumpkin puree
  • 1 C ricotta cheese
  • 8-12 oz DuClaw "62"
  • 2 Tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 Tsp ground cloves
  • 1/2 Tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1+ Tsp sugar
  • 30-40 wonton wrappers
  • 1/2 C butter
  • Fresh grated parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Reduce beer by a third over a low flame. (This took me about 20 minutes to go from 12 to 8ish ounces)
  • While beer is reducing, mix pumpkin, ricotta, and spices.
  • Add 4 T of reduced beer to pumpkin mixture.
  • Add sugar to taste.
    To make ravioli:
  • Place 1 T of mixture on top of wonton.
  • Wet edges of wonton.
  • Place second wonton on top of first.
  • Crimp edges with your fingers or a fork.
  • Bake ravioli for 10-12 minutes at 375*.
    To make sauce:
  • Melt butter over low heat and cook until browned (just a few minutes)
  • Turn off heat and add 1/2 Cup of the beer reduction.
  • Serve immediately over hot ravioli.
  • Sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese.

Notes

1. I added 3-4 tsp of sugar as the pumpkin I had was a bit bitter + the beer had a bit of bitterness after reduction. 2. Add beer to pumpkin in small amounts as you don't want the mix to get too runny. If you add too much, add a bit of flour to firm up. 3. Wontons can also be boiled, but I liked the way the baked ones looked better. Both were tasty.
