These large egg pasta tortellini (called tortelloni) are filled with a handmade blend of fresh spinach leaves, asiago cheese, roasted garlic and whole milk ricotta. They’re a savory treat that can be served with either cream or tomato sauces.
Each piece is 3.5cm wide, roughly the size of a quarter.
Ingredients:
Filling: Ricotta cheese (pasteurized whey, pasteurized milk, cream, vinegar, salt), mozzarella cheese (pasteurized whole milk, culture, salt, enzymes), spinach, garlic, blended oil( olive/ canola oil), breadcrumbs (bleached wheat flour, dextrose, yeast, salt), romano cheese (pasteurized milk, cheese culture, salt, enzymes, cellulose to prevent anti-caking), parmigiano reggiano (part skimmed cow's milk, cheese cultures, salt, rennet. contains milk), food starch modified, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, nutmeg.
Pasta: Durum flour, water, eggs, spinach powder.
Storage: Store Nuovo spinach tortelloni in its bag in your freezer until you’re ready to cook it. After opening the bag, store the frozen pasta in zip-top bags with all the air pressed out for better shelf life.
Shelf Life: Up to 8 months frozen & unopened. Use within two months of opening for absolute best quality.
Nuovo spinach tortelloni is best cooked from a frozen state.
In a large saucepan or stockpot bring salted water to a rolling boil. Add Nuovo pasta, then stir immediately to avoid pasta sticking to the bottom of the pot (which causes breakage). Cook for about 2 minutes, until al dente.
Using a spider or strainer to scoop out the pasta rather than pouring it into a colander will help protect its appearance.
This pasta pairs well with either tomato or cream sauces.
