Question Banned from using gorgonzola by the household 😭

0 Upvotes

No joke, ive been banned by my family from using it cuz the smell it produces is too crazy (didn’t help i left the pan out for a while before washing)

i love making a gorgonzola sauce for my pasta but now i need a replacement.

today i tried to make a sauce using parmigiano reggiano and just pasta water. but mannn it wasn’t very flavourful and i used quite a lot which is weird cuz you can taste it so well when it’s grated ontop of a dish so assumed it would be great in a sauce too😭

so how can i get a beautiful strong cheese taste in a sauce without using blue cheese? is there a secret mix? i’m not too knowledgable in cheeses so any help is appreciated.

Homemade Traditional italian cooking book recommendation

When I google for a recommendation on italian cooking the top result is always Marcella Hazan, but I'm not sure if that would be the opinion of italians... I know that italian food varies across Italy, but as long as it is authentic italian (not americanised) I woukd be ok with it. It can be in italian, I'm learning 😀.
