Caruso sauce or salsa Caruso is a warm sauce in Uruguayan cuisine made of cream, ham, cheese, beef extract, and mushrooms, and sometimes nuts or onions. A simpler version is a Béchamel sauce with spices, walnuts, and ham.[1] It is served with pasta, typically cappelletti.
A different and unrelated Caruso sauce, also served with pasta, is a tomato sauce with chicken giblets and mushrooms.[1][2]
