Photo: Peas in Three-Cheese Sauce Recipe
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 3 shallots, finely chopped
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 16 ounce package frozen peas, thawed
- 1/3 cup grated Parmesan
- 1/3 cup shredded white Cheddar
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons grated Pecorino-Romano
- Salt
Directions
Heat butter in a saucepan and saute garlic and shallots in a saucepan until translucent. Reduce heat to low and add cream and nutmeg. Allow to reduce by about 1/3. Remove from heat and stir in peas, Parmesan and Cheddar, and cook until cheese is incorporated. Season with pepper and sprinkle with Romano cheese. Cheese will be salty so add salt only if needed after all cheeses are added.

A very good recipe. My rule of thumb for "new" recipes is to make it exactly as the author intended the first time. I haven't felt the need to change anything. This recipe needs no tinkering. Good balance of flavors and easy to put together. Once, in an area without access to white cheddar I substituted cream cheese and it was still solid.

Yes, yes, yes! We tried this dish on Thanksgiving just to have something different from the usual green bean casserole. My husband and I both said "green bean what?" This was excellent! I covered it with french fried onions and baked it to brown them. Will have to try the sauce on other vegetables. Yum Yum :-D

I MADE THIS AND INSTEAD OF MIXING IT WITH PEAS, I ADDED IT TO BROCCOLI AND CAULIFLOWER. I ALSO ADDED ABOUT 1/2 TEASPOON OF FRESH THYME TO THE CREAM AND CHEESE MIXTURE. WONDERFUL SAUCE. A KEEPER IN MY KITCHEN!!!
