Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 (16 ounce) box tagliatelle pasta
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup heavy cream
3 ½ ounces crumbled blue cheese
⅔ teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 pinch salt
1 pinch ground black pepper
1 pinch ground white pepper
1 pinch ground nutmeg
1 pinch dried oregano
1 pinch dried basil
1 tablespoon toasted walnuts, chopped

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Boil the tagliatelle until cooked through yet slightly firm, 8 to 10 minutes; drain.
  • Drizzle olive oil over the cooked pasta and toss gently to coat.
  • Heat the cream in a saucepan over low heat until warm; stir in the blue cheese, garlic powder, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, white pepper, nutmeg, oregano, and basil. Cook very gently until the blue cheese has melted and the sauce is hot, but don't let the sauce boil.
  • Place the tagliatelle in a serving dish and pour the sauce over the pasta. Top with walnuts to serve.

This is my new favorite pasta dish! The blue cheese sauce is so creamy and flavorful, and the asparagus is a great addition.

I thought this dish was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I would recommend adding some more spices or herbs to the sauce.

I found the sauce to be a bit too thick. I would recommend adding a little bit of milk or cream to thin it out.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste. I would recommend using less butter or cream in the sauce.

I'm not a fan of asparagus, so I left it out. The dish was still very good, but I think it would have been even better with the asparagus.

I found the sauce to be a bit too salty. Next time, I'll use less salt or omit it altogether.

I'm not a fan of blue cheese, so I substituted it with cheddar cheese. The sauce was still very tasty, and the overall dish was very satisfying.

This dish was easy to make and turned out great! I didn't have any asparagus on hand, so I used broccoli instead. It was still delicious.

I thought the flavors in this dish were a bit too strong. The blue cheese sauce was overpowering, and the asparagus didn't do much to balance it out. I would recommend using a milder cheese, or adding some other vegetables to the dish.

This tagliatelle dish was a hit with my partner! The blue cheese sauce was incredibly flavorful and creamy, and the asparagus added a nice touch of freshness. Will definitely be making this again.
