   • Steam the butternut squash until it’s easily pierced with a fork.
   • Mash the squash and mix it with ground nutmeg, ginger, gruyere cheese, ricotta cheese, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside to cool.

2. Make the Dough:

   • In a large bowl, mix the unbleached flour and salt together.
   • In a separate bowl, combine fresh cilantro, eggs, and 1/4 cup of water.
   • Use a food processor to pulse the cilantro mixture until finely chopped.
   • Gradually add the cilantro mixture to the flour mixture, mixing until well combined.
   • Add more water if needed to form a stiff dough.
   • Knead the dough by hand until smooth, then cover and let it rest for 20 minutes.

3. Shape the Ravioli:

   • After resting, knead the dough again and roll it out into a thin sheet, about 1/8 inch thick.
   • Use a round cutter to cut out an even number of circles from the dough.
   • Place a spoonful of the squash filling in the center of half of the dough circles.
   • Moisten the edges of the dough with water, then place another dough circle on top of each filled circle.
   • Press the edges together firmly to seal the ravioli.
   • Let the ravioli dry for about 2 hours, then refrigerate until ready to cook.

4. Cook the Ravioli:

   • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
   • Carefully add the ravioli to the boiling water and cook for about 15 minutes, or until they float to the surface and are cooked through.
   • Drain the cooked ravioli and serve hot with your favorite sauce.
