Instructions

Let’s dive into making this creamy and cheesy Pasta ai Quattro Formaggi:

  1. Prepare Cheeses:

    • Combine Parmesan and parsley in the work bowl of a food processor.
    • Pulse using ON/OFF turns until the cheese is finely minced.
    • Mix this with the grated Fontina and set aside.
  2. Cook the Pasta:

    • Boil a large pot of salted water.
    • Add the fettuccine pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente.
    • Remember to reserve about a cup of pasta water before draining.
  3. Prepare the Sauce:

    • In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter.
    • Add the cream and gorgonzola cheese, stirring occasionally until the cheese is completely melted and the sauce is smooth.
  4. Combine Pasta and Sauce:

    • Add the hot, cooked pasta to the skillet with the cheese sauce.
    • Toss gently to coat the pasta evenly in the sauce.
    • Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 3-4 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
  5. Add Cheese Mixture:

    • Now, add the parsley and cheese mixture to the pasta.
    • Sprinkle in a pinch of nutmeg and the fresh ground pepper.
    • Season with salt if needed (remember, the cheeses are already salty, so taste before adding salt).
  6. Final Touches:

    • Toss everything together gently until all the cheese is melted, creating a luxurious and creamy sauce.
    • Taste the pasta and adjust the seasoning according to your preference.
  7. Serve and Enjoy:

    • 🍽️ Divide the Pasta ai Quattro Formaggi into plates or bowls.
    • 🌿 Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley or extra grated Parmesan, if desired.
    • 🥖 Serve alongside some crusty bread to mop up every last bit of the delicious sauce.

This Pasta ai Quattro Formaggi is a true celebration of cheese, creating a decadent and comforting meal that will leave everyone at the table satisfied and coming back for more. Buon Appetito! 🇮🇹✨
