Recipe - Crab Tortelloni With Scallions And Poppy Seed

1 pound Fresh crab meat
4 Scallions, thinly cut or sliced up
Plus 4 scallions
One fourth cup Basic tomato sauce
1 Recipe basic pasta, rolled
out to thinnest setting
6 tablespoon Butter
1 tablespoon Poppy seeds

Bring 6 quarts water to boil and add 2 tablespoons salt.

In a mixing bowl, stir together crab, scallions and basic tomato sauce
until well blended. Cut pasta into 4inch squares and place 1 tablespoon
filling in center. Fold into triangles, exude air and seal edges. Bring
points of long side together to form a ring (or a hat!!) and seal with
pressure between fingers. Place tortelloni in water and boil for 8 to 10
minutes. Meanwhile, melt butter with poppy seeds. Drain cooked tortelloni
carefully and gently place in pan. Add remaining scallions and toss to
coat. Serve immediately.

Yield: 4 servings
