Steps

1. 1

   Begin by combining shrimp and pancetta in a food processor, pulsing until finely chopped. Incorporate scallion, lemon zest, and salt into the mixture, pulsing briefly until well combined but not completely smooth. The sausage can be used immediately or stored in the refrigerator for up to overnight before use.

2. 2

   Begin by spooning 1 teaspoon of the sausage filling onto the center of each wonton wrapper. Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water, then fold it diagonally to form a triangle shape. Gently press the edges together using a fork to securely seal the ravioli. Place the assembled ravioli on a plate as you go along. Keep them covered with a damp cloth and set aside for later use.

3. 3

   Fill a medium saucepan with water, allowing it to reach a depth of 1 1/2 inches, and heat over high heat until it boils. Season the water with a pinch of salt before adding the broccoli rabe and edamame. Once the water comes back to a boil, cook the vegetables until the broccoli is just starting to wilt and remains vibrant green, approximately 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove the vegetables from the water and give them a quick rinse under cold running water. Keep the blanched vegetables aside for later use.
