Ingredients
  

For the Base
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream Provides the creamy base; for a lighter option, use half-and-half.
  • 3 cloves Garlic Smashed; adds aromatic depth.
For the Flavors
  • 0.75 cup Gorgonzola Cheese Imparts a distinct tangy flavor; substitute with blue cheese for a bolder taste.
  • 0.25 cup Parmigiano Reggiano Grated; enhances flavor and thickness.
  • 1.5 teaspoons Dijon Mustard Contributes depth and tanginess.
  • 0.5 teaspoon Kosher Salt Balances flavors; adjust according to taste.
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper Freshly ground; adds warmth.
For the Finishing Touches
  • 2 tablespoons Parsley Finely chopped; adds freshness.

Equipment

  • Medium saucepan

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium saucepan, add the heavy cream along with the smashed garlic cloves. Set the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, allowing it to simmer for 10-15 minutes until thickened.
  2. Use a slotted spoon to carefully remove and discard the garlic cloves from the saucepan.
  3. Stir in the Gorgonzola cheese and grated Parmigiano Reggiano, ensuring they meld into the creamy base. Add the chopped parsley, Dijon mustard, kosher salt, and black pepper. Stir over low heat until the cheeses have melted and the sauce is smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
  5. Serve immediately drizzled over a cooked steak or favorite protein.
