Tortellini Dough

Method

Prepare the Dough

  1. 1

    Make the Dough

    In a large bowl, mix the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add eggs and olive oil. Gradually combine the ingredients until a dough forms.

  2. 2

    Knead the Dough

    Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until smooth. Wrap in plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Make the Filling

  1. 3

    Combine Filling Ingredients

    In a bowl, mix together the ricotta, lemon zest, lemon juice, Parmesan, salt, and pepper until well combined.

Assemble the Tortellini

  1. 4

    Roll Out the Dough

    Divide the dough into quarters. Roll out one piece at a time to about 1/16 inch thickness. Cut into 3-inch squares.

  2. 5

    Fill and Shape Tortellini

    Place a small spoonful of filling in the center of each square. Fold over to form a triangle, sealing the edges. Bring the two corners together to form a ring and pinch to seal.

Cook the Tortellini

  1. 6

    Boil the Tortellini

    Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add tortellini and cook for about 4-5 minutes until they float. Remove with a slotted spoon.

Prepare the Toppings

  1. 7

    Grill Artichokes and Black Lime

    Grill the artichokes and black lime until charred and heated through.

  2. 8

    Toast Hazelnuts

    In a dry skillet, toast the hazelnuts over medium heat until golden brown, then chop them.

Serve

  1. 9

    Plate the Dish

    Plate the tortellini and top with grilled artichokes, chopped hazelnuts, and slices of grilled black lime. Drizzle with olive oil and garnish with parsley.
