NOT including the pasta - right?

Right andiesenji!
Thanks for letting me know :-* :-*
I can't imagine what kind of sauce this would be otherwise! ;)
-
I really like the look for this sauce, but dislike gorgonzola / blue cheese - would this work with some other sort of cheese or do you need the taste of the gorgonzola?
-
Well Cuilidh.. If you don't like any kind of blue cheese what I can say wouldn't exactly be a substitute and it would taste differently
I thought like what would I do if I were you... ??? :-))
I guess I'd use 100-120g of feta and the rest philadelphia. I've never tried though
And as I said before, it wouldn't be a substitute

Cuilidh
I make something very similar with
Camembert or brie cheese with a tablespoon of sour cream

Thanks for the suggestions. I had thought of camembert / brie but hadn't considered the addition of sour cream. Farfallina, I was pretty sure that the 'blue' part of the cheeses comprised a huge part of the taste but thought I would ask anyway. I think I may just try fundj's idea and see how that goes.
-
oh yes
Camembert or brie could be a better idea
they didn't come into my mind at the time I posted
If you ever try, let us know how it results ;)
-
A young Asiago cheese pairs beautifully with ricotta - or you can also use one of sheeps milk feta - wash the brine off well and don't use any added salt in the recipe.
I have a friend who simply can't stand blue cheeses (heretic ;D) so I use the Asiago combined with other cheeses when I have to substitute.
-
This sounds yummy!
Could you add other things into it as well? Such as an onion, bit of garlic and some shredded ham or something? Would that cook in the sauce ok?
-
Yes you can,
This is what I would do
Steam up some broccoli and sown peas(keep warm)
or fry some ham and peas with a little butter (keep warm)
Then fold through the cheese sauce
There is no cooking of the sauce it will heat up when you mix it with the hot pasta

Thank you :)
-
I made this for dinner tonight and sauteed some onion and shredded ham before doing the sauce and it was so good! Definitely going to cook again :D
-
I am glad you enjoyed it Trish
And thank you for sharing your modifications :*
Next time I make it I am gonna try your way ;)
