Ingredients
  

For the Sauce
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream At least 36% milk fat for the best texture.
  • 3 cloves Garlic Peeled and smashed.
  • ¾ cup Gorgonzola Can substitute with another blue cheese.
  • ¼ cup Parmigiano Reggiano Grated, fresh cheese preferred.
  • 2 Tbsp Finely Chopped Parsley Optional, for garnish.
  • tsp Dijon Mustard Consider whole grain mustard for a different texture.
  • ½ tsp Kosher Salt
  • ¼ tsp Freshly Ground Black Pepper

Equipment

  • Medium Saucepan

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Gorgonzola Cream Sauce
  1. Pour 1 cup of heavy cream into a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, adding the smashed garlic cloves. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low and let simmer for about 10-15 minutes.
  2. Use a slotted spoon to remove the garlic cloves from the saucepan and discard. The cream should have absorbed garlic flavor.
  3. Lower heat to medium and stir in ¾ cup of crumbled Gorgonzola cheese and ¼ cup of grated Parmigiano Reggiano until both cheeses have melted. Fold in chopped parsley, Dijon mustard, kosher salt, and black pepper.
  4. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper as needed. If too thick, whisk in a splash of cream. Serve immediately over favorite dishes.
