- Combine flour and semolina in a bowl and mix together. Remove ¼ cup for bench flour.
- Lay the flour and semolina mix out onto a countertop and form a well in the center.
- Add the eggs, egg yolks, and olive oil into the center of the well. Mix with a fork.
- Using your index finger, slowly incorporate the flour into the eggs; form into a shaggy ball.
- Knead the dough for 5-8 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap and allow to rest.
- Roll the dough out into a very thin sheet, dampen the napkin and lay over the pasta sheet.
- Cut the pasta into small rounds and form the tortellinis, transfer to a dusted baking sheet.
How to Cook
- Adjust the seasoning of the brodo with Balinese Truffle Salt. Strain into another pot or bowl and keep hot.
- Lightly season the pot of boiling water with salt and cook the tortellini for 3-4 minutes.
- Remove the tortellini from the pot and plate them in your perfect serving bowl.
- Using a ladle, ladle some of the mushroom brodo on top of the tortellinis.
- Shave some Parmesan cheese over the tortellinis and top with Truffle Carpaccio.
- Add one last sprinkle of Balinese Truffle Salt and dig in!
