    So glad to find a way to make this from scratch rather than the packaged dried Majadera with MSG, etc. Got a recipe to duplicate Osem's dried parve torteliini or ravioli?

    Haha. This is a wonderful dish.

    I like how we have a similar mindset - throw everything into a pot, cook, eat. :)

    I should have checked to see if this recipe was already up before posting. (I usually don't check because most people don't post authentic recipes)

    But I'm glad to meet you!
