Tormie, do you know something called "Tortalini Ala Panna" (spelling is off I'm sure on this) I used to order it at a pasta place in Calif and I fell in love with it. Would love to find the reciepe for it to make at home. I know it had Marsella wine in the sause and mushrooms.

How do you know? That's unbelievable.

Tormie [ Thursday, 15 July 2004, 08:40 PM ]

<img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> In italian they are "Tortellini alla panna" (watching your italian phrases make me figure how weird could look my poor english <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/icon_redface.gif" alt="" /> ) I will search for the sauce recipe with the Marsala wine. The "Marsala" is more a liquor than a wine and it is used a lot in recipes (rarely it is drunk alone). The Best quality is the "Marsala siciliano all'uovo" (Sicilian Marsala with eggs). It's a sweet wine mid-alcoholic used also for sweetmeats. When I cook tortellini I use a simpler recipe, I make a broth with soup cubes, but is better a chicken broth. When it boils I put in the tortellini (the hand-made tortellini are the best but I buy them at the market <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/icon_redface.gif" alt="" /> ), after 5 or 6 minutes they are ready and I can drain them. While they are in the colander I put a cube of butter in the pot and pour the "panna" in (milk-cream, I found it already-made at the market). I cook it for aboute one minute and then I pour the tortellini. I mix all and then they go in the dishes <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> . Put Parmigiano cheese on them for a better taste ! "Tortellini in brodo" is another classic. Simply cook them in the chicken broth and put them in the dishes (use a spoon to eat them). <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Thank you Tomie, I'm going to copy this and try it out. You've made me very hungry now <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/smile.gif" alt="" />

Spaghetti are vey simple and fast to cook. Go to your market and buy "Spaghetti n°5" with the "Barilla" brand (I think that the "Barilla" brand is exported also in Norway, I easily found it in Mozambique too... The "right" spaghetti are made with hard-corn, but abroad they are usually made with soft-corn because they are cheaper and foreign people doen't care of the difference, the final result is that the spaghetti attach together like glue <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_sick.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_sick.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_sick.gif" alt="" /> . If you buy that brand you are sure they are the "right" spaghetti). Take a big pot, half fill it with water and add 1 and a half spoon of salt. When the water boils take the spaghetti (you've to calculate the right amount of them... mmmh... about 100 gr for 2 persons when they are dry, or less, I don't know, I simply take the right amount...), brake them in the middle and throw them in the pot. Mix them often or they will attach one to another. After about 6 mintues take one spaghetto with a fork and taste it, if it is too much hard boil them one or two minutes more and taste again. When the spaghetto is "not hard but not too soft" (in italian "al dente"), close the gas ( <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_shifty.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_shifty.gif" alt="" /> ) and pour them in the colander. While they are in the colander put in the pot the usual little cube of butter (you can even use margarine if you're in diet or vegetarian) and cook the sauce for about 1 minute. There are a lot of types of sauce, but you can add what you want to spaghetti, a very fast sauce is a can of tuna, or the same panna used for tortellini. I like a lot "pesto alla genovese" (you can easily find it at the market). Mix and cook the sauce a little with the butter (no more than a minute) and Pour the spaghetti from the colander. Mix all and put in the dishes <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> . Over them Parmigiano cheese (grated ! I forgot to mention it, grated <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> ), Don't use cheese if the sauce is made with fishes (I use it anyway, but it's not the right taste). It is all done in 15 minutes maximum. P.S. And NO cans <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_snooty.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_snooty.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_snooty.gif" alt="" />

Okay stop!!! You'r making me sooooooooooooo hungry and I'm trying to clean house for my boyfriend to come home to today <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/smile.gif" alt="" /> I know I'm going to make him take me out to dinner to the Olive Garden for pasta (only because from all the cleaning and the heat here in Oregon I'll be too tired to cook tonigh) I love tortellini and I also love very much pesto!! Yummy!! No tuna in my spaghetti, I only eat tuna in sandwhiches and salad (and tuna pop tarts lol) I make spaghetti about twice a month, but normally I just use jar sause (I know, shame on me) but I'm going to try some of your ideas because they make me very hungry and sound very good <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/smile.gif" alt="" /> Now to explain how to make Canaloie? (pastry type pasta desert) Haha, my spelling is terrible <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_doh.gif" alt="" />

"Canaloie" looks like "Cannelloni ripieni"... They are difficult to prepare but extremely good <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/nicetongue.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/nicetongue.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/nicetongue.gif" alt="" /> ... My mother is able to make them, usually I buy them fresh but already made <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/icon_redface.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/icon_redface.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/icon_redface.gif" alt="" /> .... The stuffing of "cannelloni", "tortellini", "ravioli" etc, can be made with flesh (ragu'), cheese or vegetables
