Try this CREAMY WALNUT SAUCE recipe, or contribute your own.
Suggest a better descriptionThis rich and nutty sauce makes everything from roasted vegetables to chicken more interesting. For a Primal take on Chicken Alfredo, sauté thinly sliced zucchini with chicken, then pour the sauce on top.
Sauté walnuts and shallot in butter until walnuts are lightly toasted, about 3 minutes.
Add 1 cup of cream and bring to a gentle simmer for five minutes.
Pour the walnuts and cream in a blender and purée until as smooth as possible. Add salt to taste.
This yields a fairly thick sauce. Add the additional ½ cup of cream to thin out if desired. If you want the sauce to be silky smooth, push the puréed sauce through a fine mesh sieve so the nut solids are separated out.
