Directions:
- In a medium frying pan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring occasionally and mashing the garlic with the back of a wooden spoon, until it is soft and golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in the sage, salt, and pepper.
- In a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the tortellini until just done, about 4 minutes for fresh and 12 minutes for frozen. Drain the pasta and return to the pot.
- Add the butter and parsley and toss over low heat until the pasta is thoroughly coated with the butter, about 1 minute.
- Variation: Ravioli with Garlic Sage Butter Sauce: Feel free to use ravioli, or any other small stuffed pasta, instead of the tortellini.
- Cheese Tortellini with Garlic Sage Butter Sauce: If you prefer another stuffing, such as cheese or mushroom, by all means try it.
- Tortellini with Garlic and Fresh-Sage Butter Sauce: Substitute 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh sage for the dried. Sauté until crisp but not brown, about 1 minute.
- Wine Recommendation: Barbera is one of the most food-friendly Italian red wines, and it works beautifully here with the assertive sage and garlic.
