GORGONZOLA CREAM SAUCE



Gorgonzola Cream Sauce image

Autumn is the season for rich, creamy sauces, and I'm pretty sure you're going to be shocked at just how easy this one is. When your cream is reduced, your sauce is practically done. I like serving this with a stuffed pasta like tortellini or ravioli, topped with diced apple and crunchy toasted walnuts.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and make the cooking process go more smoothly.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh ingredients will always give you the best flavor. If possible, try to buy organic or locally grown ingredients.
  • Don't Overcook the Chicken: Chicken is a delicate meat that can easily be overcooked. Cook it until it is just cooked through, or it will become dry and tough.
  • Make Sure the Sauce is Thick Enough: The sauce should be thick enough to coat the pasta and chicken. If it is too thin, add a little more cornstarch or flour.
  • Serve Immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is made. The pasta will start to absorb the sauce and become soggy if it sits for too long.
