GORGONZOLA SAUCE
Steps:
- Bring the heavy cream to a full boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, then continue to boil rapidly for 45 to 50 minutes, until thickened like a white sauce, stirring occasionally.
- Off the heat, add the Gorgonzola, Parmesan, salt, pepper, and parsley. Whisk rapidly until the cheeses melt and serve warm. If you must reheat, warm the sauce over low heat until melted, then whisk vigorously until the sauce comes together.
GORGONZOLA PASTA SAUCE
Extremely easy and quick pasta sauce recipe. Use for cooked chicken or shrimp, too. For a lower fat version, substitute half and half for the cream and add a teaspoon of cornstarch for thickening.

GORGONZOLA CREAM SAUCE
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.

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.

Tips and Conclusion
Tips:- For the best flavor, use good quality gorgonzola cheese. A creamy, flavorful gorgonzola will make all the difference in this dish.
- If you don't have heavy cream on hand, you can use milk instead. However, the sauce will be thinner and less creamy.
- If you want a richer sauce, you can add a tablespoon of butter to the pan before adding the gorgonzola cheese.
- To make a vegetarian version of this dish, omit the pancetta or bacon. You can also add some roasted vegetables, such as broccoli, zucchini, or mushrooms.
- Serve the fettuccine with a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese and a glass of white wine for a truly Italian experience.
