TORTELLINI EN BRODO

Tortellini en brodo ("in broth") is a traditional first course for Christmas feasts in northern Italy. Because it calls for only a few ingredients, make sure they are of the highest quality, especially the chicken stock (now is a good time to use any you might have in your freezer).

Most Italians will tell you that this is the ONLY way to eat tortellini. My family would agree. This is a very comforting dish on a cold day/night or just a quick and easy meal for the family. I keep chicken broth frozen in the deep freeze. But in a pinch, you could use boxed or boullion.
