Ingredients

Directions

  1. Bring 6 quarts of water to a boil and add 2 tablespoons of salt.

  4. Drop the Tagarin pasta into the boiling water and cook until tender, about 45 seconds.

Note

Use fresh, high-quality Gorgonzola for the best flavor impact.

Toast the walnuts lightly in a dry pan before adding them to the cream for extra depth of flavor.

Tagarin pasta cooks very quickly; do not overcook it to maintain its delicate texture.

This dish is best served immediately as the pasta will continue to absorb the cream sauce if left to sit.
