Tortellini in brodo instructions
- First, the broth. Chop the veg into large chunks.
- Add all ingredients to a large pot.
- Add 6 litres of water. If pot isn't large enough then add more water as the rest evaporates.
- Cover and cook for at least 8 hours, adding more water if necessary (no more than 24).
- In the meantime, let's make the filling.
- Add the sage, bay leafs and butter to a pan. Then medium heat..
- When the butter starts bubbling, add the pork.
- Let it cook for at least ten minutes.
- Just after the pork starts turning golden brown, remove from the heat.
- Remove the bay leaf and sage if not chopped.
- Blend with chopped mortadella and ham.
- Once mixture is smooth, add egg, salt, nutmeg, parmesan and mix.
- Tightly cover with cling film and put in the fridge. The filling must be cool before adding it to the pasta.
- Next, the pasta.
- Knead the flour, eggs and salt into a smooth dough. This will take at least ten minutes.
- Now we must work quickly lest the pasta dries. With a rolling pin roll some of the dough into a thin sheet. Wrap the rest of dough in cling film to prevent it drying out (important!).
- Cut the sheet into 4cm squares.
- Place a ball of filling (~2cm diameter) in the center of each square.
- Fold one corner of the square to it's opposite to form a triangle.
- Squeeze the edges to seal the filling inside.
- Pull the corners together, keeping them in the same plane as defined by the triangle.
- Squeeze the corners together and make pretty if needed.
- Try not to form a bum.
- Leave the pasta to dry in a non humid place. Once dry, store fridge if needed..
- ⏩ Fast forward to the broth being ready ⏩.
- Sieve the broth into a container and then chill in fridge overnight..
- By now the fat should have risen to the top and solidified.
- Remove the fat. Use it for something else or through it away..
- Pour the broth into a saucepan and bring it to the boil. Add salt if needed..
- Add some of the tortellini and cook for 8-10 minutes. Once they start floating they're nearly ready..
- Serve the pasta in a bowl of broth. Enjoy!.
