Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 4 ounces Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
  • 1 tablespoon truffle oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

Optional Garnish

  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Finely chop the garlic and crumble the Gorgonzola cheese to have everything ready for cooking.
  2. Melt Butter and Sauté Garlic: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and gently sauté the garlic for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant, taking care not to brown it.
  3. Add Heavy Cream and Simmer: Pour in the heavy cream, bring to a gentle simmer while stirring frequently to prevent scorching, and let it reduce slightly for about 5 minutes to thicken.
  4. Incorporate Gorgonzola Cheese: Lower the heat and slowly crumble the Gorgonzola into the cream, continuously stirring until the cheese melts fully and the sauce becomes smooth and velvety.
  5. Finish with Truffle Oil: Remove the sauce from the heat, drizzle in the truffle oil, and stir gently to blend. Season with salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste.
  6. Serve Warm: Pour the sauce over your favorite dishes immediately. Garnish with fresh parsley or other desired toppings and enjoy.

Notes

  • Use quality, fresh crumbly Gorgonzola for best flavor and texture.
  • Keep heat low throughout cooking to avoid cream separation.
  • Add truffle oil at the very end to preserve its aromatic quality.
  • Stir constantly to ensure a smooth, even sauce.
  • You can adjust thickness by simmering longer for thicker sauce or less for a thinner consistency.
