Tips for Making the Best Balsamic Tortellini:
- Choose the right tortellini. Fresh tortellini will give you the best results, but frozen tortellini can also be used. If using frozen tortellini, be sure to thaw it completely before cooking.
- Cook the tortellini according to the package directions. Most tortellini will need to be boiled for 3-4 minutes, or until they float to the top of the pot.
- Make the balsamic glaze while the tortellini is cooking. This will give the glaze time to thicken and develop its flavor.
- Add the tortellini to the balsamic glaze and toss to coat. Be sure to coat the tortellini evenly so that each piece is coated in the glaze.
- Serve the tortellini immediately, garnished with fresh herbs or grated Parmesan cheese.
