When you visit your favorite Steak house Restaurant Cincinnati loves consider ordering one of these delicious Italian sauces served on a dish of pasta:
1. Alfredo: If you love creamy foods than this is the sauce for you. Beautifully smooth and velvety the combination of butter, heavy cream and garlic are thickened with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and can often be ordered with the addition of seafood or chicken.
2. Arrabbiata: If spice is something you crave Arrabiatta is simple yet packed with flavor due to the addition of chilis. Beautiful tomatoes are sometimes made even more flavourful with the addition of pancetta, but the combination of tomato and picante chilis works well without any help.
3. Bolognese (also known as Ragu): When it comes to red sauces this is the most common and the traditional sauce usually contains a combination of ground beef, pork and veal. Many restaurants use recipes passed on for generations or come up with their own twist on this classic adding everything from pancetta to Italian sausage. The meat is combined with tomatoes, onions, garlic, carrots and celery and is usually served on long noodles, penne or ziti.
4. Carbonara: This is a lovely sauce that some may not consider a sauce. It tosses eggs and bacon in a pan with pasta just before serving and some chefs add cream. Topped with parmesan it is delicious and some versions include peas, garlic or onions.
5. Pesto: Traditional pesto is olive oil, fresh basil, garlic, pine nuts and parmesan cheese tossed on long noodles. As this sauce has become popular it has been made with newer flavors such as walnuts and is also made with sun dried tomatoes. The sauce is not cooked, but served fresh instead.
6. Marinara: Every family and restaurant has their own version of this simple tomato sauce that is the base for many dishes. It is tomatoes simmered with garlic and onions and each chef has their own technique and secret ingredients to make it their own.
Pasta is always an excellent choice at the steak house restaurant Cincinnati loves and choosing the one that will suit your mood and taste is easy once you know what flavors to expect.
