Cheese Tortellini

Cheese tortellini are a popular variation of traditional Italian stuffed pasta, filled with a blend of cheeses, most commonly ricotta, Parmesan, pecorino, or a combination of these. The resulting flavor is delicate, creamy, and slightly salty. This variety is particularly popular among vegetarians. They are best enjoyed in simple preparations, with butter and sage, with a creamy sauce, in a vegetable soup, or in broth. They also work well in baked dishes. Both fresh and dried cheese tortellini cook in just a few minutes, making them a quick and satisfying choice for everyday cooking.
