Instructions to make Tortellini in brodo:
- 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!
