Ingredients

    1/3 cup fresh sage
    2 tablespoons butter

In the meantime cut butternut squash in half and roast in the oven for 30-40 minutes, until soft but still firm.

In the last 10 minutes, heat butter on stove until melted add. Add the sage to the butter and cook until the butter is brown but not burnt.

Mix the wheat berries, butternut squash and browned butter sage sauce in a large bowl. Plate and then shave pecorino onto top.

    Very Good
    Don't be afraid of the amount of sage. Fresh sage sautéed in butter is surprisingly mellow and delicious - 11/3/15
