Recipe Contest- Win Le Creuset Cookware!!
I tried a new recipe last night for Gnocchi in a Fontina Sauce, and while it has nothing really to do with southern baking, I am going to share the recipe at the end of this post. The good news about all of this is that I had my dear friend who is in marketing at Le Creuset over for dinner last night to try the gnocchi, and we got to talking about this blog. We decided to have a recipe contest, and the winner will get an amazing, wonderful, useful piece of Le Creuset cookware! My friend is quite a chef and baker, and she has graciously agreed to be the judge for the recipe contest! So, think you have an amazing recipe for your favorite dessert?? Send us your recipe to southwillrise.mp@gmail.com by Friday, September 16th, and we will announce the winner and post the top three recipes on Friday, September 30th. We can’t wait to see what you send in!!
Gnocchi in a Fontina Sauce
1 lb of refrigerated gnocchi
6 tablespoons of unsalted butter
2 tablespoons chopped shallots
8 oz of Italian Fontina cheese cubed
1/3 cup of heavy cream
3 tablespoons Parmesan cheese
Directions
Cook gnocchi until tender (about 5 minutes).
Start the sauce at the same time you start cooking the gnocchi as you want the gnocchi to be done first.
Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
Add the shallots and cook for a few minutes until tender.
Stir in the cream and heat until almost a boil. Gradually mix in the cheese, but be careful not to bring the mixture to a boil.
Stir until smooth then remove from heat and pour over the cooked gnocchi.
So tasty!!
Well this is a fun blog! I can’t wait to try these receipts!
Just received a tip about your blog and greatly enjoyed your observations and the photos. I’m not a cook, so I’m planning to come to your house for dinner tonight. Tomorrow night, too. Thanks.
You are welcome any time- and we will be even closer when we move to Lamboll St.!!
