Tip: Drain pasta over a large bowl and keep the liquid, place strainer with pasta on top to keep warm (do not let pasta soak in liquid) before serving pour a few spoonfuls of the hot pasta water over the pasta to prevent sticking together
In a medium size sauce pan melt the butter and olive oil on medium to medium high heat; whisk in the flour to thicken; add the cream, Boursin cheese, white wine, shredded cheese and pepper; continue to gently whisk till creamy, using a wooden spoon stir in the spinach and cooked shrimp till heated through and serve immediately over the cooked pasta.
