Creamy Pasta Sauce FAQs
Which pasta should creamy sauces be served with?
Long and skinny pasta like spaghetti, linguine, and bucatini taste delicious with creamy sauces like carbonara and cacio e pepe. Shelled pasta like conchiglie also work well, particularly with cheese-based sauces.
HOW TO PAIR PASTA AND SAUCESWhich wines go well with creamy sauces?
To offset creamy sauces like carbonara and alfredo, pair your pasta with Soave, Pinot Bianco or a Sicilian white. Meanwhile, creamy seafood sauces are best with fruity whites like Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio and Prosecco.
FIND YOUR PERFECT WINE PAIRINGCan vegan alternatives be made for creamy pasta sauces?
Most creamy sauces will use milk, cream, cheese or butter. For vegans, swap in plant-based cream and vegan cheese. We include vegan dishes on our weekly menu each week so keep an eye out for our creamy sauce alternatives.
