Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Pasta Water Magic 💧
    Always reserve 1 cup of starchy pasta water before draining, as it's crucial for creating a silky, emulsified sauce that perfectly coats the rotini.
  • Prosciutto Crisp Technique 🥓
    Cook prosciutto in a single layer in a cold, dry pan to ensure maximum crispiness without burning, gradually bringing the pan to medium heat.
  • Boursin Melting Mastery 🧀
    Remove the pan from direct heat when incorporating Boursin and cream to prevent separation and ensure a smooth, luxurious sauce texture.
  • Garlic Infusion Hack 🧄
    Gently toast minced garlic in butter for 30-45 seconds before adding other ingredients to unlock deeper, nuttier flavor notes.
  • Cheese Layering Pro Tip 🥄
    Finish the dish by folding in grated Parmesan off the heat, allowing residual warmth to melt the cheese without breaking its texture.
