Welcome to Cooking With Nonna Episode 3 - How To Make Tortellini (or cappelletti as we call it!)
In today’s video Nonna shows us step-by-step how to make her traditional, homemade tortellini - walking us through what goes into the filling, cutting the pasta into little squares and finally how to tie up the little parcels to turn them into cappelletti ("little hats")
My Nonna and Nonno have been making cappelletti with their friends Nino and Clara for the past 36 years! They all get together and have a little production line going so they can make big batches for all their family. We eat cappelletti (as the first course!) for special occasions like Christmas, Easter and birthdays, and they are so delicious (way better than the tortellini you buy from a store!)
We hope you enjoy the video and would love to hear it you give it a try yourself!
