TORTELLINI ALLA PANNA RECIPE

Steps:

• Add the butter and cream to a large sauté pan, and season with salt and pepper. Turn the heat on to medium and melt the butter into the cream. Bring to a simmer and cook until slightly thickened, about 1 minute. Take off the heat.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and add the tortellini. Cook until the tortellini are slightly underdone, 8-10 minutes. Drain well.
• Place pan with butter and cream back over medium heat. Add the tortellini and stir, mixing the tortellini in with the cream sauce.
• Add the Parmagiano-Reggiano cheese and stir gently until cheese is melted and tortellini are well coated with the sauce. Transfer to warm pasta bowls and serve.

TORTELLINI ALLA PANNA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of slightly salted water to boil.
• Once water is boiling add tortellini. Cook according to directions on the package. Stick to that time precisely or even reduce it by 1 minute to avoid that tortellini fall apart when you add them to the sauce.
• While you're waiting for water to boil to cook tortellini in, prepare the cream sauce.Place a pan over medium heat, add a generous drizzle of extra virgin olive oil (you can substitute it with butter if you prefer).
• Add heavy cream and stir. Once you see first bubbles reduce the heat, add nutmeg and stir again.Cook for about 2 minutes until the sauce has slightly reduced, it should be still liquid. Turn the heat off.
• Once tortellini are ready, reserve a cup or a little less of their cooking liquid.Drain tortellini and add to the pan with the cream sauce.
• Turn on the heat and toss everything in the pan until the sauce has coated tortellini (it'll take about a minute or so).
• Remove the pan from the heat and add Parmesan cheese, stir until tortellini are well covered with the creamy sauce.If tortellini dry out a bit add a few tablespoons of previously reserved pasta cooking liquid (that should be warm but NOT boiling by now).Give everything another good toss in the pan.
• Serve immediately with fresh ground pepper.
