What it is

How people cook with it
Tortellini are versatile and can be enjoyed in a variety of ways, from simple preparations to more complex dishes.
- Boiled and served with sauce
- Added to soups
- Baked in casseroles
- Tossed with pesto
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 they float to the surface and are tender. Drain them well. They can then be tossed with your favorite sauce, added to a hearty soup, or incorporated into a baked pasta dish. For a lighter option, consider serving them with a simple olive oil and herb dressing.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike dried tortellini, these fresh pasta parcels cook much faster. The cheese filling provides a distinct richness compared to pasta without any filling. Their shape allows them to hold sauce well, and the tender pasta casing complements the creamy interior.
