Reply to comment by TheGreywolf33 in [Homemade] Gnocci with bacon and white Thyme Sauce. by TheGreywolf33

Thank you for this! A couple questions:

  • do you have measurements or just wing it?
  • you state “strain”: do you mean strain out the garlic, shallots, etc so you only get the flavor not the bits?

Thanks!

• I would say a half cup of whole Garlic and shallots and like a table spoon of peppercorns. This was one smaller bottle of wine (about a quart) and a quart of cream.

• yes strain out the aromatics like the garlic and shallots and keep the cream. You can always add more garlic to the final dish in the pan.

•Make sure your cream is HOT when you blend your cheese so it completely emulsifys but not boiling as you don't want to break it.

Hope that helps. Cheers.

So...4 cups each of wine AND cream?

I’m wondering as well, that certainly doesn’t look like a whole quart of cream was added.

Yes a quart each. There will be left over cream you can use to your liking.
