Pasta With Citrus Cream Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• In a 3-quart saucepan bring 2 quarts salted water to a boil for pasta.
• With a sharp knife cut peel and pith from grapefruit and oranges. Working over a bowl cut grapefruit and orange sections free from membranes, transferring sections to a plate, and halve them. Squeeze excess juice from membranes into juice in bowl and reserve 1/4 cup juice.
• In a 12-inch skillet combine reserved juice, and cream and heat sauce over moderate heat until butter is just melted. Keep cream sauce warm over very low heat.
• Add pasta to boiling water and cook until al dente. Drain pasta well in a colander. Add pasta, fruit, Parmesan, and parsley to sauce and toss with salt to taste until most of sauce is absorbed.

Steps:

• In a skillet over med-low heat, warm the cream.
• Add in the cognac or dry sherry, lemon and orange zest, and salt; simmer 7-10 minutes.
• Add in the mint and basil.
• Toss the hot, drained pasta with the sauce and grated cheese.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add noodles, and stir to separate. Cook for 8 minutes or until tender. Drain, then return to the cooking pot.
• Just before noodles are done, in a small saucepan combine the lemon zest, cream, salt and pepper. Cook over medium heat for 2 minutes, or until cream comes to a boil.
• Pour cream mixture over drained noodles, and add the lemon juice. Stir to coat. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until all the liquid is absorbed, about 1 to 2 minutes. Season with additional pepper, if desired.

Steps:

• In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta according to package instructions. Reserve 1 cup pasta water; drain pasta and return to pot. Meanwhile, in a small pot, heat oil over medium. Add shallots, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring, until tender, 4 minutes. Add cream and lemon zest. Bring to a boil and cook until slightly thickened, 8 minutes. Add lemon juice and season to taste with salt and pepper. Pour cream sauce over pasta and toss, adding enough pasta water to create a thin sauce that coats pasta.
