Pasta

Cheese Sauce

Method

Cooking the Pasta

  1. 1

    Boil the Water

    In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add 1 tablespoon of salt.

  2. 2

    Cook the Pasta

    Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook according to package instructions, usually about 8-10 minutes, until al dente.

  3. 3

    Drain the Pasta

    Once cooked, drain the pasta in a colander and set aside.

Making the Cheese Sauce

  1. 4

    Melt Butter

    In a saucepan over medium heat, melt 50g of butter.

  2. 5

    Add Flour

    Once the butter is melted, add 50g of all-purpose flour to the saucepan. Stir continuously for about 2 minutes to create a roux.

  3. 6

    Add Milk

    Gradually pour in 500ml of milk while whisking to prevent lumps. Continue to stir until the sauce thickens, about 5-7 minutes.

  4. 7

    Add Cheeses

    Reduce the heat to low and add 100g of Gorgonzola, 100g of Mozzarella, 100g of Parmesan, and 100g of Ricotta cheese to the sauce. Stir until the cheeses are fully melted and the sauce is smooth.

  5. 8

    Season the Sauce

    Add 1 teaspoon of black pepper to the cheese sauce and stir well.

Combining and Serving

  1. 9

    Combine Pasta and Sauce

    Add the drained pasta to the cheese sauce and toss well to coat the pasta evenly.

  2. 10

    Serve

    Serve hot, garnished with additional cheese or black pepper if desired.
