Better Fettuccine With Creamy Asiago Sauce Recipes

CREAMY BAKED ASIAGO-GOUDA FETTUCCINE

Steps:

• Cook fettuccine in large pot of salted water until tender but firm to the bite, about 10 minutes; drain well.
• While pasta is cooking, in small skillet, saute shallots and garlic in 1 T butter over medium heat until tender; set aside.
• After fettuccine is done cooking, drain well in colander and then pour back into the same pot.
• Add the 6 T melted butter and coat pasta well.
• Next add the shallot mixture, parsley flakes, cayenne pepper and ground nutmeg; stir well.
• Next, add 1 cup grated Asiago cheese and 1 cup grated smoked Gouda cheese and combine well.
• Next, add the half-and-half and milk and combine well.
• Let the fettuccine sit for about 15 minutes so that the pasta soaks up the flavors of the sauce mixture.
• Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees F for about 25 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Enjoy!
• Let sit for about 5 minutes and serve.

Steps:

• Boil Pasta according to the directions.
• When done drain and put back in the pan on Med to Med- High heat, add all ingredients and stir thoroughly until you see cheese getting stringy. You can add more Cheese if you like. If you are talented, you can make the sauce while pasta is cooking-but I have found this technique is better.
