Some of them more known, some of them better and some of them you are better off not knowing ............ instead, explore new flavors, combine tastes, listen to your palate, close your eyes, breathe the food …..

Winter and the broccoli are back…..too heathy! Lets add some gorgonzola cheese!!!
Separate flowers from the stem and boil along with the pasta. Once cooked (3-5 min) put them aside. Sauté the leeks until soft, add half of the broccoli, gorgonzola, mascarpone, a few tablespoons of the cooking water and blend it. Check the seasoning! Drain the pasta and mix it with the blended sauce back in the pan. Add the rest of the broccoli, some parmesan and some grounded black pepper. Serve ….! This is really easy.
