Tortellini is a ring-shaped, stuffed Italian pasta from the Emilia-Romagna region, traditionally filled with a savory mix of meat (like prosciutto, mortadella, pork) and Parmesan cheese, often seasoned with nutmeg, and famously served in broth (en brodo) or with butter/cream sauces. It’s known for its delicate texture, with a larger version called tortelloni usually filled with cheese and greens.
