National Tortellini Day
February 13, 2024
Tortellini is a signature dish from the Italian region of Bologna, where they claim to have created this stuffed pasta packed with flavor. Ravioli, tortellini, and tortellacci are all part of the same family of stuffed pasta. The most common fillings for tortellini are ham, white meat, and Parmesan cheese.
This Italian dish is favorite worldwide. It can be also served as a part of soup, that makes the dish even better. There is a nice legend about the origin of tortellini. Goddess Venus stayed in a tavern on the outskirts of Bologna, the city where tortellini originate.
