About this Dish: One of the most famous pasta shapes from Italy, tortellini are a stuffed, ring-shaped pasta originally from Emilia-Romagna. A famous legend says the chef who invented this new pasta did so after seeing the goddess Venus and shaped it after her belly button. Unlike other pasta shapes, tortellini are usually reserved for lavish times of celebration and are considered a luxury food, stuffed with decadent fillings like prosciutto, mortadella, veal, and Parmigiano Reggiano® DOP.

Freshly made tortellini pasta with meat filling arranged on a floured surface in Santa Clara, California.
