SERVES: 4 • TOTAL TIME: 30 MINUTES
Ingredients:
185 mL chicken or vegetable stock
120 mL dry white wine
225 g Gorgonzola
2 cups cream
3 tbsp butter
Pinch salt
¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
500 g penne
1/3 cup grated parmesan
½ cup walnuts, roughly chopped
Directions:
Begin by toasting walnuts in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Stir constantly and watch carefully to ensure they don’t burn.
When walnuts are lightly toasted remove from heat and set aside.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat combine stock and wine and bring to a boil. Cook until the mixture has reduced to about 2/3 cup.
Reduce heat to low and add in butter, cream and Gorgonzola. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring constantly until the cheese melts. Add salt and pepper, stir and remove from heat.
Cook pasta according to the packet directions until it is al dente.
Drain pasta and toss it through the sauce.
