Ingredients Wheat flour, salt, eggs, and water. For the filling, minced mortadella, chicken giblets, and herbs.
How Made The flour is sifted with a pinch of salt and kneaded long and vigorously with eggs and sometimes a little water until a smooth, firm dough forms. The dough is left to rest, then rolled out into a sheet, not too thin, and small disks of variable size are cut from it. A spoonful of filling is placed on each disk; the disk is folded in half to form a half-moon, and the edges are sealed with the tines of a fork. The tordei are cooked in plenty of lightly boiling salted water.
