What a fantastically rich dinner. I decided to go with a pretty basic recipe since it was my first time making it. That's about all I can say about it!
Fettucini Alfredo
(Recipe courtesy of Tyler Florence)
Alfredo Sauce:
1 pint heavy cream - (I did use half and half I didn't want to be too bad!)
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
Freshly cracked black pepper
Chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, for garnish
To prepare alfredo sauce: Heat heavy cream over low-medium heat in a deep saute pan. Add butter and whisk gently to melt. Sprinkle in cheese and stir to incorporate. Season with freshly cracked black pepper. In a large stockpot, cook pasta in plenty of boiling salted water for 3 minutes. Quickly drain the pasta and add it to the saute pan, gently toss the noodles to coat in the alfredo. Transfer pasta to a warm serving bowl. Top with more grated cheese and chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
That picture is beautiful! My mouth is watering :)
