Im going to give you a very easy recipe this time and my next blog entry will be on a great wine to serve wit this recipe called [1] Conundrum. I will at some point list and write about some Armenian cognacs/brandy as well. This time I just put a link to one called [2] Nairi which is a beautiful 20 year old gem for a very bargain price.

Armenian Tortellini 
Calories Per Serving: 0
Preparation Time: 15
Difficulty: Easy

Ingredients:
1 Pack Tortellini (I get fresh kind. 1 pack per 2 people from [4] Trader Joe)
4 oz Crumbled Gorgonzola
2-3 oz Heavy cream
Crushed roasted nuts of choice
Few springs of parsley.
Salt and pepper too taste
Cooking Instructions:
Cook the tortellini in boiling water for 6-8 minutes. While the tortellini is cooking heat up the cream. Now the part to make the tortellini an Armenian food. :) Add a tablespoon of [5] Armenian cognac. Add the diced parsley and salt and pepper to the cream.
Serving Suggestions:
When the tortellini is cooked plate it 10-12 per person. Add the crumbled Gorgonzola on top of the tortellini, Add the crushed nuts and add 3-4 heaping table spoons of the cream. Let the pasta sit for couple of minutes for everything to semi melt and bond together.
Additional Comments:
Very very easy to make.  You dont have to use cognac or brandy, you can use bourbon as well.
