Instructions

1. Make the dough either by hand or with a pasta machine.

2. Roll out into a large circle by hand or with a pasta machine, until it’s thin enough to see your hands through it.

3. Place the mortadella, mascarpone, parmesan cheese and egg in a food processor with the salt and nutmeg.

4. Whir until smooth.

5. Spread the mortadella mixture over half of the pasta dough and then fold the unfilled dough over the filled portion of the dough.

6. Press dough gently to remove any air bubbles.

7. Using a pasta cutter, cut into small squares about 1 inch across.

8. Cook the pasta gently in a chicken broth and serve when done.

9. Alternately, cook the pasta gently in water, then add to a pan with butter and sage.

10. Sprinkle with more parmesan cheese.
