Mushroom Tortelloni with Truffle Butter
Black truffle tortelloni and truffle butter is a robust expression of all things truffle. In this recipe we mix summer black truffle in a delicate balance with ricotta cheese to create a creamy filling with the earthly flavour of truffle. By layering on a truffle butter on top of our hand folded tortelloni we reinforce the earthy tones of the truffle without making it too overpowering. A dash of parmesan finishes the dish to balance the smoothness of the butter with the saltiness of the parmesan.

Cook for 3 – 4 minutes depending on preference
Gently melt truffle butter in a in a frying pan without burning and transfer the tortelloni using a slotted spoon making sure that some of the starchy pasta waster makes into the pan with the truffle butter. (The starchy pasta water is the secret to getting a good coating of the butter on tortelloni). You can always add 1 tablespoon of pasta water after if you would like.
Gently coat the tortelloni with the butter, plate and garnish with Parmesan
Buon Appetito!
