Categories     Entree

Time 1h30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons butter
1 large sweet onion, thinly sliced (1 1/2 cups)
1 clove garlic, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon salt, if desired
1 lb uncooked penne pasta
1 3/4 cups whipping (heavy) cream
1/4 cup butter
4 oz Gorgonzola cheese (preferably Gorgonzola dolce, or sweet Gorgonzola), crumbled (1 cup)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
Dash of freshly grated nutmeg or ground nutmeg

Steps:

  • In 10-inch nonstick skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat. Stir in onion and garlic to coat with butter. Cook uncovered about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook uncovered 35 to 40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onion is light golden brown. Do not let onion or garlic burn. (Onions will shrink during cooking.)
  • Meanwhile, fill large pot with 5 quarts water; heat to boiling over high heat. When water is boiling, add 1 tablespoon salt if desired. When water returns to boil, add pasta. Stir immediately to make sure it doesn't stick to itself or pan. Boil pasta 9 to 10 minutes or until cooked through but still slightly firm. Drain in colander. There is no need to shake off excess moisture.
  • Add onion mixture to pot. Increase heat to medium and add 1 cup of the whipping cream and 1/4 cup butter. Cook, stirring occasionally, until butter melts and cream simmers. Stir in cheese, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Add drained pasta and remaining 3/4 cup whipping cream. Cook and stir until pasta is coated and sauce is hot.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of mushrooms. This will give your dish a more complex flavor. Some good choices include cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the mushrooms. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and releasing their liquid.
  • Cook the mushrooms until they are browned and tender. This will bring out their flavor and make them more enjoyable to eat.
  • Use a high-quality gorgonzola cheese. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish.
  • Serve the pasta immediately after cooking. This will prevent the cheese from hardening and becoming difficult to eat.

Conclusion:

Penne with mushrooms and gorgonzola cheese is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The combination of mushrooms, gorgonzola cheese, and cream creates a rich and flavorful sauce that is sure to please everyone at the table. This dish can be made with a variety of different mushrooms, so you can easily customize it to your own taste. Serve it with a side salad or a glass of red wine for a complete meal.
