Recipe Notes:
- Sauvignon Blanc has the perfect level of acidity for this creamy sauce and when thinking of Sauvignon Blanc, nowhere comes to mind quite like New Zealand. The varietal synonymous with New Zealand has the perfect notes of citrus to compliment the other ingredients of the dish, so when looking for the perfect white for this recipe, reach for a bottle of New Zealand’s famous Sauvignon Blanc
- Reducing a sauce is the simple process of simmering liquid until the desired consistency is reached. This is done by removing the lid from your pan to allow evaporation to occur. The process will thicken your sauce without overcooking your pasta. The proper consistency of the sauce is up to personal taste, but a good rule of thumb is to remove a piece of pasta from the pot and see if it is still coated in a thick, white sauce.
- Unless you enjoy the taste of lemon rind, I would suggest adding your lemon once the sauce is done.
- Don’t consume alcohol? All the alcohol will have cooked off in this recipe long before it is done boiling. After adding wine to a recipe, it only takes 30 seconds at 172° F for alcohol to evaporate. Still don’t want to add the wine? Try substituting for more vegetable broth.
