200 g heavy cream (use at least 30% fat, don’t go lower)
150 g gorgonzola (use Gorgonzola Dolce, not Piccante, for the best taste. You can find it in any grocery store)

Spices
1/6 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
10 fresh basil leaves

Method:
00:00 - Intro

00:12 - Start by cutting the gorgonzola into small pieces. The smaller you cut it, the faster and more evenly it melts. Make sure you’re using Gorgonzola Dolce, not Piccante. Dolce is mild, creamy, and slightly sweet — exactly what you want for this sauce. It’s also the type you’ll usually find in regular grocery stores.

00:35 - Now let’s cook. Place a pan on medium heat — if your stove has numbers, aim for about 6 out of 9. Pour the heavy cream straight into the cold pan. Don’t heat the pan first. If the pan is already hot, the cream can split. Start stirring right away.

As the cream warms up, add the nutmeg and ground black pepper. Give it a good stir. You don’t need any salt here — the gorgonzola already has plenty of flavor.

00:56 - Next, add the gorgonzola pieces. Keep stirring without stopping. You’ll see the cheese begin to melt almost immediately. Continue stirring until the cheese fully melts and the sauce turns smooth and creamy. This usually takes about 2 to 3 minutes.

Once the cheese is almost completely melted, tear the fresh basil leaves with your hands and add them to the pan. Don’t cut basil with a knife — tearing it helps keep the aroma fresh and vibrant. Stir the basil into the sauce.

Lower the heat and let the sauce gently simmer for another 1 to 2 minutes.

Give it one final stir, then take the pan off the heat.
01:48 - Pour the sauce right away into a cold bowl. Don’t leave it sitting in the hot pan, or it can curdle.

That’s it — your gorgonzola sauce is ready to serve. Creamy, smooth, and done in minutes.
