Pasta Con Cinque Formaggi Recipes

PASTA FORMAGGIO

Steps:

• In medium saucepan, melt butter.
• Combine flour, dry mustard, chipotle chili powder, salt, and pepper.
• Stir with whisk flour mixture into melted butter, and cook for about 1 minute or until bubbly.
• Slowly add evaporated milk, stirring to combine, then add regular milk as stirring.
• Cook over medium heat until sauce begins to thicken.
• The fattier the milk, the thicker the sauce.
• Add cheeses and reduce heat to low; cook stirring frequently until sauce thickens.
• Stir in tomato paste.
• Pour cheese sauce over cooked pasta.
• Stir in peas.
• Serve at once.
• If desired, top with buttered bread crumbs and bake in 350 degree F oven for 10 to 15 minutes to brown topping.
• (I never do this step.).

PASTA AI QUATTRO FORMAGGI

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil.
• Add the butter to a large skillet over medium heat and add the mushrooms and garlic. Cook until browned, about 5 minutes, then add the wine and cook until evaporated.
• Meanwhile, add the pasta to the boiling water and cook according to the package directions, leaning toward the al dente side. Do not overcook; this will take 1 to 2 minutes!
• Add the cream to the skillet with the mushrooms. Drain the pasta (reserving some of the pasta water) and add the pasta to the mushrooms, along with the fontina, Parmesan, Romano, goat cheese, 1/2 teaspoon salt and some pepper. Stir gently to combine, adding hot pasta water as needed for consistency. Don't overmix; if there are little clumps of cheese here and there, it's fine! Taste and add more salt if needed. The mixing stage should happen very quickly.
• Turn the pasta out into a large serving bowl. Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately.

PASTA CON CINQUE FORMAGGI

FETTUCCINE QUATRO FORMAGGI

Steps:

• Cook pasta in pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite.
• Meanwhile, combine cream and next 6 ingredients in heavy large sauce-pan. Whisk over medium heat until mixture simmers and is smooth.
• Drain pasta; return to same pot. Add cream sauce and Parmesan to pasta; toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with pine nuts and serve.

QUATTRO FORMAGGIO PASTA SAUCE

Steps:

• Shred all of the cheeses but the;marscarpone and toss them together in a bowl. Set aside.
• In a pan, melt about a 1/2 stick of butter and then pour in the light cream and bring to a boil.
• When the cream is beginning to boil, slowly mix in the marscarpone. After it has melted, slowly add the other cheeses giving them time to melt and blend into the cream.
• The sauce will be ready when all the cheese has been mixed in and it comes to a boil again. If the cheese precipitates out of solution, then cool and add extra mascarpone.
• If you are not an idiot, you should have been making the pasta all along and it should now be ready to serve with the cheese sauce over it. If, at this point, you still need instructions about that sort of thing, pass this book on to someone with half a brain.
• Serves two: a man with a future and a woman without a past.
