Parmesan Cream Sauce

Pantry and Fridge

Ingredients

1 quart Heavy cream

1/2 pound Parmesan cheese, grated

1/3 pound Romano cheese, grated

2 teaspoons White pepper

1/8 teaspoon Nutmeg

3 Tbsp Butter

1/4 cup Flour

Instructions

Bring heavy cream to a boil. Add cheese and stir well. Add pepper and nutmeg. Next, in a small sauté pan, make a roux by me the butter over medium heat. Blend in the flour and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent the roux from browning. Using a wire whisk, add roux to the milk/cheese mixture and continue cooking until thickened, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from the heat.

This sauce may be made and held in refrigeration for up to one week.

Yield: 1 quart

Cinnamon Cream Syrup

This pairs perfectly with Sweet Potato Pancakes. It may be better than the pancakes themselves (and they’re great). But try this recipe on regular pancakes, waffles, and French toast.

Sweet Potato Pancakes

I ate my first sweet potato pancake during my only visit to Gatlinburg, Tennessee. My family, along with another couple and their young children rented a cabin in the mountains during spring break. I woke every morning and headed into town for breakfast. I would imagine Gatlinburg has more pancake houses per capita than any place on the planet. My problem is that I never found a good-tasting pancake until I happened across sweet potato pancakes at one of the pancake houses. We serve a version of this recipe at The Midtowner. The Cinnamon Cream Syrup is a must.

RSJ’s Smoked Yellowfin Tuna Dip

The smoked tuna dip at Harbor docks is, by far, the best in the area. Actually, it’s the best I have ever tasted. Over the years I have taken a few stabs at recreating a Harbor Dock’s version, but always come up short. After several failed attempts, and facing a cookbook deadline, I finally worked up a recipe for smoked crab dip, which is excellent, though my wife still prefers Harbor Docks smoked tuna dip.
