Preparation:
* Note: see the "Basic Fresh Egg Pasta" recipe which is included in this collection.
Bring 6 quarts water to boil and add 2 tablespoons salt.
In a large mixing bowl, mash goat cheese until soft. Add eggs and nutmeg, stir well. Using a pasta roller, roll out pasta to thinnest setting and then cut sheets into 2-inch squares. Place 1 teaspoon goat cheese filling in the center of each 2-inch square. Fold opposite corners together to form a triangle. Press edges together firmly to seal. Bring opposite points of the triangle together and meld together with firm finger pressure. Continue until all pasta is done.
Drop tortellini into boiling water and cook until tender.
