Truffled Tagliatelle w. Gorgonzola + Walnut Cream Sauce
Grade: B
Went to Citarella on 9th a long time ago and purchased the truffled tagliatelle for a "special" occasion. Decided to break it out for Easter and it wasn't my favorite. I should have gone with Penne. However, I gave the recipe a B because the sauce was pretty tasty. Will probably do it again with a steak.
Gorgonzola + Walnut Cream Sauce
- 2 Tbs Unsalted Butter
- 2 tsps of fresh sage
- 4 oz crumbled gorgonzola
- 2 tsps of mascapone
- 2 Tbs of milk
- 1 c. walnuts (ground)
- 2 Tbs grated Parmesan
- Black Pepper
Cherry + Ricotta Hazelnut Strudel
Grade: B+
Recipe called for fresh cherries which are out of season, but when the fruit start to ripen, this recipe will have a lot of potential. Given that I used frozen Dole Cherries, the strudel was still very light and subtly sweet. Enough to satisfy the sweet tooth after a rich meal.
Will share the details when I try this again.
