Equipment

  • sauce pan
  • Spider strainer
  • Large pot for boiling pasta

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 shallot finely diced
  • 2 cloves fresh garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon tomato paste
  • cup white wine like sauvignon blanc
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 ounces freshly grated parmesan cheese (about 1 cup when finely grated)
  • ¼ teaspoon dried tarragon
  • teaspoon paprika
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 9 ounces lobster ravioli
  • Fresh parsley or basil optional garnish

Instructions
 

  • Set a large pot of well salted water to boil. Finely dice shallot, mince garlic, and finely grate parmesan cheese. Measure out other ingredients.
  • Heat a saucepan over medium-low heat and melt butter. Saute shallots for about 5 minutes until softening and translucent. Add in garlic and cook another minute while stirring.
  • Add in tomato paste and cook for 1-2 minutes while stirring until it darkens.
  • Deglaze with white wine and cook for another 2 minutes, allowing the alcohol to burn off.
  • Slowly stir in heavy cream. Add in tarragon, paprika, and parmesan cheese. Simmer on low until sauce reaches desired consistency, about 5 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • While sauce is reducing, boil ravioli according to package directions. Transfer ravioli to the cream sauce with a splash of pasta water as needed.
  • Serve hot. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley, basil, or extra additions as desired.

Notes

If you are using pre-shredded parmesan cheese, note an 8 ounce package DOES NOT equal 1 cup here! Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. I don’t recommend freezing this sauce, cream sauces usually don’t freeze well. The best way to reheat a cream sauce is in a pan over low heat while stirring. Add a splash of milk or broth as needed to loosen it back up. Microwaving this sauce can cause it to break.
