Tortelli cremaschi

Tortelli cremaschi is a traditional pasta dish originating from Crema. The dough for the tortelli is made from white flour, semolina flour, eggs, olive oil, and salt. Once prepared, it's rolled and filled with a combination of cocoa amaretti (amaretti Gallina), mostaccino biscuit with spices, raisins, Marsala or dry anise liquor, candied lemon, mint, and grated Grana Padano cheese.
