To prepare, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Carefully add the tortellini to the boiling water. Stir gently to prevent them from sticking together. Cook for the time indicated on the package, usually just a few minutes, until the tortellini float to the surface and are tender. Drain them well and then toss with your favorite sauce or add them to a soup. They absorb flavors beautifully.
