Tortellini and Brodo

Method

Preparation and Assembly

  1. 1

    Make the Tortellini Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the eggs. Gradually incorporate the flour into the eggs until a dough forms. Knead until smooth, about 5-7 minutes. Wrap in plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Make the Filling

    In a bowl, mix together the grated Parmesan and Ricotta cheeses. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Roll Out the Dough

    On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/16-inch thickness. Cut into 3-inch squares.

  4. 4

    Fill the Tortellini

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

  5. 5

    Prepare the Brodo

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced Cipollini onions and diced peppers, sautéing until softened. Stir in smoked paprika and cook for another minute.

  6. 6

    Add Broth

    Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a simmer. Let it cook for about 10 minutes to develop flavor.

  7. 7

    Cook Tortellini

    Carefully add the tortellini to the broth and cook for 3-5 minutes until they float and are tender. Adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Ladle the tortellini and broth into bowls. Garnish with chopped parsley and additional grated Parmesan if desired.
