Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
First, prepare the filling. Place ricotta, Parmesan, and any easily melting cheese (like Fontina), grated on a fine grater, and 1 egg into a bowl. Mix well, season with salt and pepper.
Step 2
For the dough, mound the sifted flour on a work surface, add a pinch of salt and 4 eggs. Knead a firm, elastic dough (knead for at least 10 minutes). If the dough is too stiff, add a little olive oil. Wrap the dough in a clean towel and let it rest for 30 minutes.
Step 3
Then, roll out the dough into a thin sheet and cut it into squares. Place the filling in the center, fold the square diagonally, pinch the edges, and connect the ends like regular dumplings.
Step 4
Drop the tortellini into a large pot of boiling salted water.
Step 5
While they are cooking, melt the butter in a saucepan and mix with half of the marjoram. Use a slotted spoon to remove the floating tortellini. Allow excess water to drain and place them on a plate. Drizzle the finished tortellini with marjoram butter, sprinkle with chopped marjoram, and serve hot.
