Instructions
1
Begin by preparing the pasta dough: In a food processor, blend flour and eggs together until a smooth and firm dough forms, which may take a couple of minutes. Once ready, wrap the dough in plastic wrap or place it in a resealable bag and refrigerate for at least one hour.
2
For the filling: Toast panko breadcrumbs in a dry skillet over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until golden brown. In a mixing bowl, combine the toasted panko with everything bagel seasoning, cream cheese, ricotta cheese, one egg, and grated parmesan cheese. Mix until smooth and transfer to a piping bag or plastic bag with the corner snipped off.
3
To assemble the tortellini: Roll out the chilled pasta dough on a lightly floured surface into a rectangular sheet approximately 1/8 inch thick. Using a 3-inch round cutter, cut out circles of dough, gathering and re-rolling any scraps as needed.
4
Pipe about one teaspoon of the filling into the center of each dough circle. Moisten the edges of the circle with a little water to ensure a good seal. Fold the dough over to form a half-moon shape, pinching the edges tightly to seal. Pinch the two ends of the half-moon together to create a tortellini shape. Place the completed tortellini on a floured baking sheet.
5
To cook the tortellini, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, fry the chopped bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it is crisp. Once boiling, gently drop the tortellini into the water and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they float to the surface.
6
Reserve ½ cup of the pasta cooking water and drain the tortellini. Add the tortellini to the skillet with the crispy bacon, along with the reserved pasta water and additional parmesan. Toss everything together, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat the pasta evenly. Incorporate the remaining everything bagel seasoning and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
7
Serve the tortellini piping hot in bowls, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
