This rich and flavorful sauce is the perfect match for bitter radicchio. It is incredibly easy to make and goes well with any type of (preferably fresh) pasta. My favorite pasta to have this with is gnocchi. The light and fluffy potato pasta goes well with the rich sauce. Garnish with Parmesan cheese and parsley.
Ingredients
- 1 pound gnocchi
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cups chopped radicchio
- 1.5 cups heavy whipping cream
- 8 ounces Gorgonzola cheese
- 0.13 teaspoons ground nutmeg
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
-
1
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook gnocchi in the boiling water until they float to the top, 2 to 4 minutes. Drain.
-
2
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add radicchio; cook and stir until softened, about 5 minutes. Transfer radicchio to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap so it continues to wilt.
-
3
Pour heavy cream into the same skillet and bring to a simmer over medium heat, about 5 minutes. Add chunks of Gorgonzola and whisk until melted and evenly incorporated, about 2 minutes. Season with nutmeg, salt, and black pepper. Stir in radicchio. Add gnocchi and toss to coat.

15-Year-Old Pesto Sauce
I first tried pesto in a restaurant about 15 years ago and asked the chef what was in it. I love keeping my own jar of this on hand as it yields enough for a pound of pasta and is wonderful drizzled over tomatoes, boiled potatoes, or Italian bread.
Brazilian Whole Banana Pie
This whole banana pie is a hit in Brazil, mainly in the city of Rio de Janeiro. Almost all the ingredients are natural, except for the margarine. It is also made with whole grains, which contribute for a good health. It supplies a lot of energy and the bananas give an extra dose of potassium. That is why this pie is consumed by athletes and people who practice sports in general. Besides, it is simply delicious!
