Pasta sauce is many time the most important part of our Italian meal.We tend to choose the pasta shape just to be sure that it matches well with the sauce we would like to it.The idea is that the sauce has to wrap the pasta in such a perfect way that the two are perfectly together when we eat.
For this reason many times people love tomato or creamy sauces, which match easily with most of the pasta shapes.
To serve a nice, creamy sauce we can think of cheeses and we have not to forget that most cheeses are lactose free,as we were explaining in our previous post (link here)
So let us enjoy the pleasure of the great mix of various cheeses

■ Preparation
Put a large pot of salted water on the stove and bring to a boil.(for the pasta)
Grate the Parmigiano.
Cut the other 3 cheeses into cubes.
Pour milk and cream in a saucepan on low heat and add gorgonzola , provolone, and fontina.
When these cheeses are starting to melt, add the grated Parmigiano.

As the water boils, pour in the pasta and cook it “al dente”, then drain and put it for a minute
in the pan with the 4 cheeses sauce .
Arrange the pasta with 4 cheeses in the serving plates and serve immediately.
■ Tips
The pasta with 4 cheeses sauce cools, it tends to dry out quickly, so once it is ready, serve it immediately.
If you prefer, you can replace or add cheeses like Gruyere, Emmentaler, Grana Padano, Pecorino older than 4 months.
If you want to lighten the sauce you can replace the cream with other 50 ml of milk
This is one of the many pasta sauces for cheese lovers and considering it is so fast and easy,it confirms the possibility of preparing a pasta dish to satisfy ourselves when we are hungry but also our buds with a rich and creamy taste, having a full and satisfying flavour with a smooth and velvety texture.Buon appetito !
