When I learned how easy it was to make fresh, homemade tortellini I had to make a quick video about it. For this recipe I am filling my Italian dumplings with a sausage ragu made from cinghiale, or boar meat. You can use anything you like to fill yours, so dont be afraid.

In Bocca Episode 2 is OUT!

In this episode we meet Roberto Serrini, who is a filmmaker, travel writer, and definitely not a chef. He tells a very special story about how he and his best friend Peter were brought to Italy to meet his family, and how these bizarre and wonderful books bonded them as friends. He also tells us how much he likes to eat. A few times. It's kinda stupid.
