Sunday Dinner – Fresh Tortellini

Posted by Michael on Feb 2, 2009 in Recipes | 1 comment

Making some fresh tortellini on Superbowl Sunday. The dough was made with a simple mix of three eggs, 1-3/4 cups of all purpose flour and a half cup of durum semolina flour, and they were stuffed with a mix of ricotta cheese, parmesan cheese, nutmeg, salt and pepper. They boil for just three minutes and are drained, tossed with a little olive oil and served hot with a simple garlic-and-basil-laced tomato sauce. Something great from super-cheap ingredients.
