These tortelli are like amazing black truffle-baked potato-pierogis. This atypical pasta celebrates all things grown underground: potatoes, onions and truffles. It’s a tuber-palooza! (Yes, truffles are actually tubers, not fungi, as many people assume.) The filling here might remind you a bit of the ultimate baked potato, with sour cream, cheese and onion. The truffle and honey make this seriously next-level

Idaho potatoes are ideal for this stuffed pasta, they provide the perfect light fluffy texture that prevents the filling from getting overly dense and allows the flavors of the cheese, herbs and honey to really shine.
