Tortellini

um....we made tortellinis when Freddy (my spritely FIL) was in town.

Four cheese and basil tortellinis.

It made us all sweaty and a little bit stressed out helping Luke "help" us crank out the swaths of egg-yellow pasta sheets. (The dough got stuck in the machines a few times as Luke didn't realize he was supposed to crank the turn-handle as fast as he should)

But it also made me feel happy seeing all that blithe yellow fabric flowing out like satin.

And now these pics remind me of the wonderful times we had with Freddy. (Pictures in next post)

I would like to make tortellinis with him again (hopefully not too long).

Mmmmm, looks yummy. How did they turn out?

They turned out delish - love the freshness of homemade cheese filing, although I think we could have rolled the wraps a little thinner. but i guess the thick(er) skin indicates a "unique" touch of handmade craftsmanship. :)
