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.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

Time 40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup heavy whipping cream
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
6 ounces dry miniature ravioli
3 ounces crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
2 tablespoons chopped Italian flat leaf parsley
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
½ apple, diced
¼ cup chopped toasted walnuts
1 teaspoon chopped Italian flat leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Place a heavy skillet over medium heat. Pour cream into skillet, bring to a simmer, and cook cream until it reduces by half, about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
  • Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Pour dried ravioli into boiling water and cook, stirring occasionally, until pasta is tender, 16 to 18 minutes. Drain pasta, reserving a cup of pasta water.
  • Gently fold cooked ravioli into cream sauce and turn heat to low. Mix in Gorgonzola cheese, stirring gently until melted. If sauce is too thick, thin it with a little pasta cooking water.
  • Stir in 2 tablespoons parsley and Parmesan cheese. Transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle with diced apple, walnuts, and 1 teaspoon parsley.

ZUCCHINI CARROT SAUTE WITH GORGONZOLA AND WALNUT CREAM SAUCE



Zucchini Carrot Saute With Gorgonzola and Walnut Cream Sauce image

This is a dish I came up with when I wanted something sorta like pasta, but veggie instead. :) It's not, um, well, lowfat... but hey, balance in your diet is the key, right? Other nuts can be substituted for walnuts - pecans or pistachios are also tasty! This dish by itself is a rich, lower carb plate, but it's also very good over pasta.

Tips:

- To save time, use pre-shredded zucchini and carrots. - If you don't have gorgonzola cheese, you can substitute another soft blue cheese, such as Roquefort or Cambozola. - For a vegetarian version of this dish, omit the pancetta. - If you don't have walnut cream sauce, you can make your own by blending together walnuts, olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper. - Serve this dish immediately, as the zucchini and carrots will become mushy if they sit for too long.

The combination of sweet vegetables, creamy sauce, and salty cheese is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and tasty dinner idea, give this recipe a try!
