How people cook with it
These tortelloni are versatile and can be enjoyed in many ways. They pair well with a variety of sauces and simple preparations.
- With a light tomato sauce
- Tossed with butter and sage
- In a simple broth
- With a creamy pesto
To prepare, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Carefully add the tortelloni 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 the pasta, reserving a little of the cooking water. Toss immediately with your chosen sauce or a drizzle of olive oil. The reserved pasta water can help emulsify sauces.
