Tortelli


Stuffed pasta is typical of the Emilia Romagna Region, but in the area of Parma the most famous are the tortelli which can be stuffed with with ricotta and Swiss chard, pumpkin or potatoes. They are dressed with melted butter and parmesan cheese, hence the famous Parmesan saying “foghè in t’al butér, sughè in t’al formài” (drowned in butter and dried in cheese).
