Italiano Alfredo Sauce Recipes

CREAMY ALFREDO SAUCE RECIPE

Steps:

• Heat a large saucepan over high heat until very hot. Add just enough cold water to cover the bottom of the pan. Let the water evaporate (it will do this quickly) but make sure there are a few drops left in the pan. This will keep the cream from scorching and burning on the bottom of the pan. Remove the pan from the heat.
• Add the cream to the pan and return it to the heat. When the cream comes to a boil, reduce heat to medium/ medium high and continue to boil until it is reduced by half. During that time, add the garlic.
• In the meantime, cook pasta in well salted water according to package directions. Drain well when cooked.
• When the cream is reduced remove it from the heat. Add butter 1 tablespoon at a time and whisk it in. The cream should thicken and turn glossy. Add the cheese and hot pasta to the cream. Season with salt and pepper and garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Serve immediately (with added parmesan cheese for me!).

TRADITIONAL ALFREDO PASTA

Steps:

• In a large pot of boiling salted water cook the fettuccine al dente.
• in a medium pan add 1/2 the butter, 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese and 1/2 -1 ladle of hot pasta water (about 3-5 tablespoons). On low medium heat, whisk together to make a cream.
• Add the drained pasta, another 1/2-1 ladle of hot pasta water (or a little more if needed) the remaining butter and parmesan cheese, gently toss together on low heat (for about 1 minute) and serve immediately, sprinkle with parmesan cheese and black pepper. Enjoy!
