Drain and refresh under cold water. Pour a few tablespoons olive oil over pasta and toss gently to prevent from sticking together. Trim fat from proscuitto and cut into small squares. Steam peas until just tender, then plunge into cold water to stop cooking and preserve color. Pick over basil, removing all stems. Wash and let dry on a paper towel. DRESSING: In a stainless-steel bowl, combine white vinegar, lemon juice, mustard, garlic, and whisk together. Continue whisking while adding olive oil in a slow, steady stream until vinaigrette is well blended and thick. To assemble Combine tortellini, proscuitto, and peas in a large bowl. Pour half the dressing over the mixture and toss gently to coat evenly. Tear fresh basil leaves into quarters and add to salad. Chill. Before serving, moisten with more vinaigerette, toss and transfer onto a serving platter. Sprinkle with parsely.
