  1. Heat a large saucepan over medium-low heat, adding 2 tablespoons of olive oil or unsalted butter.

  4. Pour in 1 cup of whole milk or heavy cream and sprinkle in 4 ounces of crumbled Gorgonzola cheese.
  5. Stir continuously over low heat for about 3-4 minutes until the cheese melts into the cream.
  6. Remove from heat and add 1 tablespoon of white truffle oil and 1 teaspoon each of fresh herbs. Stir well and taste for seasoning.
  7. Add cooked pasta to the sauce and toss for about 1-2 minutes until elegantly coated.
  8. Plate the pasta in warmed bowls and finish with grated Parmesan cheese, garnishing with optional truffle oil or fresh herb leaves.
