GORGONZOLA CREAM SAUCE
Ingredients
|
1 cup heavy whipping cream |
2 tablespoons chopped Italian flat leaf parsley |
|
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste |
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese |
|
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste |
1/2 apple, diced |
|
6 ounces dry miniature ravioli |
1/4 cup chopped toasted walnuts |
|
3 ounces crumbled Gorgonzola cheese |
1 teaspoon chopped Italian flat leaf parsley |
Directions
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.
