La Fin!

We did it! We finished every single recipe. But first, I must say, we had to whip up another batch of that delicious popcorn!

Popcorn with Sweet Butter and Sea Salt

After some relaxing, magazine reading, and popcorn munching, it was time to eat again. The tortellini was dropped into the pot of boiling stock, cooked until ready, served up garnished with parmesan, and happily consumed. The broth was truly rich. It was primarily chicken-based, but also was cooked with some beef scrap and veal bones, giving it a very rich taste. The tortellini was filled with a pork, prosciutto, mortadella, and parmesan mixture, sealed perfectly (not a single one was lost in the broth), and cooked al dente.

It is now time for one last kitchen cleaning and the somber task of heading home. At least we all get to bring a mini fruitcake home with us, to enjoy tomorrow. Well, that and we'll also be bringing back a handful of cookies. Oh yum!
