EASY CRAB TORTELLINI
Here's a super easy, super simple method for making stuffed pasta using wonton wrappers. If you'd rather call these crab wontons or crab dumplings (or even cheater tortellini!), go ahead. No matter what you call them, this is definitely something you want in your bag of culinary tricks. They're loaded with crab and the tortellini shape does a great job of catching and holding on to all the delicious sauce.

Steps:
- Crush crackers into a bowl. Add egg, mascarpone cheese, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce; stir until combined. Let sit until crumbs have absorbed some moisture, about 5 minutes.
- Add crab meat, seafood seasoning, salt, cayenne pepper, and jalapeno to the cracker mixture; stir until just combined. Wrap and chill in the refrigerator until flavors develop, about 1 hour.
- Place a wonton wrapper on a work surface to resemble a diamond shape. Wet the top 2 edges with just enough water to moisten. Place 1 tablespoon crab filling right in the center and press to spread it out a bit. Pull the bottom wonton corner up and over the filling, line it up with the top corner to form a triangle, and work your way down the sides, pressing and sealing the wonton edges and pushing out any air. Press your finger right in the center of the long side to create a fold (or bend) in the triangle. Moisten the 2 "wings" and fold around the bend to seal. Repeat to form remaining tortellini.
- Bring a pot of salted water to a boil.
- While waiting for water to boil, place creme fraiche in a skillet over medium heat. Add paprika, lemon zest, salt, and a splash of the pasta water. Cook and stir until heated through and just starting to simmer, then turn off the heat and reserve.
- Add tortellini to the boiling water, giving a gentle stir make sure they don't stick to the bottom. Cook for 1 minute; they may or may not float to the surface. Remove tortellini with a slotted spoon and transfer into the reserved sauce.
- Turn heat to medium-high and cook, gently stirring and basting, until sauce is heated through and just starts to simmer. Don't overcook or the sauce will reduce too much. Turn off the heat and stir in dill. Serve immediately on warm plates and sprinkle with additional dill and cayenne.

Steps:
- First make the pasta. Put the flour in a food processor with almost all of your egg mixture, oil and a pinch of salt. Blitz to large crumbs - they should come together to form a dough when squeezed (if it feels a little dry gradually add a bit more egg). Tip the dough onto a lightly floured surface, knead for 1 min or until nice and smooth - don't worry if it's quite firm as it will soften when it rests. Cover with cling film and leave to rest for 30 mins.
- To make the filling, mix all of the ingredients together, season and leave in the fridge until needed.
- Cut away ¼ of the dough (keep the rest covered with cling film) and feed it through the widest setting on your pasta machine. (If you don't have a machine, use a heavy rolling pin to roll the dough as thinly as possible.) Then fold into three, give the dough a quarter turn and feed through the pasta machine again. Repeat this process once more then continue to pass the dough through the machine, progressively narrowing the rollers, one notch at a time, until you have a smooth sheet of pasta. On the narrowest setting, feed the sheet through twice.
- Put the pasta sheet on a lightly floured surface, then spoon teaspoons of the filling 4cm apart on the bottom half of the sheet. Using your fingers, pat water around each blob of filling. Fold the top half over the fillings and carefully squeeze around, making sure to remove any air pockets.
- Cut between each ravioli using a pasta cutter or sharp knife, then pinch around the edges of each ravioli to make sure it is well sealed. Keep on a lightly floured baking tray while you repeat the process with the remaining dough and filling.
- Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil. In a large, non-stick pan, melt the butter over a medium heat and cook for 2-3 mins until brown and nutty. Take off the heat and whisk in a splash of the pasta water and the lemon juice. Cook the ravioli for 2-3 mins, remove with a slotted spoon and immediately toss in the brown butter sauce. Serve topped with the lemon zest and a crack of black pepper.

BILL'S HOMEMADE CRAB TORTELLONI TUSCANY
This is my husband Bill's recipe. He's a wonderful Italian cook who learned how to make Italian food from a Sicilian couple whose restaurant he worked in while in his teens. He made up this particular recipe when his roommate of his bachelor years came home with crab and asked him to do something with it. It takes some time to make by hand, but if you purchase ready-made tortellini, the whole recipe can be prepared in about an hour. All you will need are the sauce ingredients. We hope you enjoy this dish as much as we do!

Steps:
- For Filling:.
- Put all ingredients in large bowl.
- Mix it all together until well-mixed.
- Cover and refrigerate.
- For Pasta:.
- Follow the instructions as per recipe #181058 (Homemade Pasta From Better Homes and Gardens) and divide the dough into 8 equal sections.
- Roll each section flat until each is about 16" square. Then cut each section into sixteen 4" squares.
- Get the filling mixture and place a heaping teaspoon filling into a square. Fold the square over the filling corner to corner.
- Press the seam to seal the filling inside the pasta (it should look like a fat little triangle). Take the two far ends of the triangle, one in each hand, and giving a half twist to one side, meet and press the two ends together (it should look like a little bishop's hat). Place the tortelloni on a rack to dry. Repeat this process for all squares.
- In large skillet under low heat saute garlic, onion, portobello mushrooms and spices in the olive oil.
- Once onions are translucent, add the crabmeat, heavy whipping cream, milk and salt. Bring to a simmer slowly.
- In large pot, bring water with 1 t olive oil and a dozen or so fennel seeds to a rolling boil.
- Add tortelloni to the water.
- Boil them until they all float, stirring occasionally.
- Meanwhile, using the flour, thicken the sauce to taste (personally I never use more than 1/4 c flour).
- Place tortelloni on a plate and cover with sauce and sprinkle lightly with paprika (I sometimes will also sprinkle the top lightly with parmesan or mozzarella cheese).
