Fettuccine Alfredo
A buttery, cheesy pasta from Rome. Deceptively simple — quality ingredients make all the difference.
Ingredients:
- 400g fettuccine
- 100g unsalted butter, cubed
- 100g Parmigiano-Reggiano, finely grated
- Salt and white pepper
Method:
- Cook fettuccine in well-salted water until al dente. Reserve 1 cup pasta water.
- Melt butter in a wide pan over low heat.
- Add drained pasta and a splash of pasta water, tossing to emulsify.
- Remove from heat and add cheese in batches, tossing continuously.
- Add more pasta water as needed for a silky sauce.
