Porte de nouveau le tout à ébullition pour que la crème épaississe puis on laisse sur feu tout doux :) - J’ai assaisonné à ce moment avec sel & poivre mais pour le poivre mettez à la fin !! Moi-même je me mélange dans mes étapes des fois ET C’EST OK - La petite louche d’eau de cuisson - On balance nos coquillettes cuites (on enlève 1 petite minute de cuisson car elles vont finir de cuire dans la sauce ça évitera de manger de la ✨bouillasse✨) - Puis la tonne de comté râpé !! On mélange sur feu doux pour qu’il fonde tranquillou - Et plus qu’à dresser avec la chiffonnade de jambon, un peu de comté râpé par dessus et de la ciboulette fraîche.

🌿✨ Where Comfort Meets Harmony

🍝✨ Coquillettes with Herbed Ham, Creamy Parisian Sauce & Comté — The Dish That Brings Everyone Together

Some dishes don’t need theatrics. They don’t rely on fancy plating or culinary showmanship. They arrive in the bowl like a warm hug, a soft blanket, a slow Sunday afternoon.

These coquillettes with herbed ham, creamy Parisian sauce, and melted Comté belong to that sacred category: simple, comforting, and absolutely irresistible. It’s the magic of French comfort food — a childhood classic that grew up, wandered through the market, flirted with a good cheesemonger, and came back richer, silkier, and more delicious than ever.

💛 When Simplicity Turns Into Pure Indulgence

It all begins in a hot pan, where shallots melt into olive oil, softening into sweetness. Then come the Parisian mushrooms, browning gently, releasing that nutty aroma that makes the whole kitchen feel alive. A touch of garlic. A splash of veal stock. And suddenly the sauce deepens, concentrates, becomes velvet. Then the cream arrives — thick, lush, enveloping — simmering slowly until it clings to the spoon like a promise. This is the moment you know: Tonight is going to be good.

🧀 Comté: The Quiet King of Comfort

Next comes the star. Freshly grated Comté, melting slowly into the sauce, adding depth, warmth, and that unmistakable alpine richness. Whether it’s 10, 18, or 24 months aged, it brings character. And if Comté isn’t in the budget (because yes, Comté is a luxury), a good emmental works beautifully — as long as you grate it yourself. Pre‑grated cheese? We simply don’t do that here.

✨ Coquillettes, But Make Them Chic

Coquillettes are childhood in pasta form. But here, they’re elevated: cooked one minute less, then finished directly in the sauce so they absorb every drop of flavor. A ladle of pasta water ties everything together, creating that glossy, creamy texture that feels like a chef’s secret. This is the kind of bowl you eat with a spoon. Slowly. Joyfully. Shamelessly.

🍖 The Final Touch: Herbed Ham

A delicate chiffonnade of white ham lands on top — soft, fragrant, almost melting into the sauce. A sprinkle of Comté. Fresh chives. A twist of pepper. And suddenly you’re holding a bowl that feels like home.

❤️‍🔥 A Dish That Feels Like Home

It’s simple. It’s quick. It’s generous. It’s the kind of meal that turns an ordinary evening into a moment of pure comfort. A dish that whispers: “Sit down, relax, enjoy — everything else can wait.” Simple, effective… and SUPER.

🥕 Ingredients

• 250g coquillettes
• 200g brown Paris mushrooms (or any you like)
• 1 shallot, finely chopped
• 1–2 garlic cloves, chopped
• 150ml diluted veal stock (or vegetable stock for a veggie version)
• 200ml heavy cream
• 1 ladle pasta cooking water
• 100–150g grated Comté (10–24 months), or emmental — always freshly grated
• Chiffonnade of white ham
• Fresh chives, chopped
• Salt, pepper, olive oil
Optional: a pinch of Espelette pepper

🍳 Method

1. Sauté the shallot in olive oil over high heat until translucent.
2. Add the mushrooms and let them brown. Stir in the garlic.
3. Deglaze with veal stock, reduce, lower the heat, then add the cream. Bring to a gentle boil so it thickens, then keep on low heat.
4. Season with salt and pepper (pepper at the end for full aroma).
5. Add a ladle of pasta water.
6. Add the cooked coquillettes (remove 1 minute from package time so they finish cooking in the sauce).
7. Add a generous amount of grated Comté and let it melt gently.
8. Serve with ham chiffonnade, extra Comté, and fresh chives. Eat with a spoon 😋
