Cheese Tortelloni With White Truffles Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

This pasta dish takes less than 10 minutes to make. It includes white truffles shaved over fresh tortelloni filled with five italian cheeses: ricotta, mascarpone, parmigiano-reggiano, mozzarella, and pecorino romano. Using store-bought fresh pasta makes it convenient and fast, but with white truffle shaved on topit's definitely not a boring dishWhite truffle is one of the most expensive foods, by weight, in the world, but its aroma and flavor are so intense that you only need a tiny bit. You can find fresh truffles in specialty food shops and delicatessens as well as from online suppliers. In the past, pigs were used to sniff out wild truffles in the forests of northern italy, but these days, truffle dogs are the truffle huntersbecause it's easier to train them not to eat the truffles once they find themStore fresh truffles in your refrigerator, gently wrapped in a paper bag or paper towel and inside an airtight container, for up to 4 or 5 days. Make sure to keep them dry If the paper towel gets damp, replace it with a new one. Pair this pasta dish with a rosso del veronese red wine, such as masi campfiorin. Champagne or an italian sparkling white, such as franciacorta, would also go wellAdapted from a recipe courtesy of victor pena guilera, culinary research & innovation manager, pastificio giovanni rana, developed specifically to pair with wines from masi agricola winery in the valpolicella wine region of northern italy, near verona.
