Rich and creamy! I have found that Parmesan cheese doesn't melt well, and often substitute Gruyere cheese.

Time 25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons sweet butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese, plus more for garnish
3/4 cup grated mozzarella cheese
1 (12 ounce) box angel hair pasta (or fettuccini)
2 tablespoons chopped parsley, for garnish (optional)
freshly cracked black pepper, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Melt butter in medium saucepan with olive oil over medium/low heat.
  • Add the garlic, cream, white pepper and bring mixture to a simmer.
  • Stir often.
  • Add the Parmesan cheese and simmer sauce for 8-10 minutes or until sauce has thickened and is smooth.
  • When sauce has thickened add the Mozzarella cheese and stir until smooth. STIR FREQUENTLY.
  • While the sauce cooks, boil noodles for 3-5 minutes.
  • Place pasta on serving plates and spoon sauce over pasta.
  • Garnish with parsley, freshly cracked black pepper and more grated parmesan (optional).

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the final product. Use real butter, freshly grated Parmesan cheese, and full-fat milk or cream.
  • Don't overcook the sauce: Alfredo sauce should be cooked gently over low heat until it is slightly thickened and creamy. Overcooking will cause the sauce to become thick and rubbery.
  • Add the cheese slowly: Gradually whisk the Parmesan cheese into the sauce until it is melted and smooth. Adding the cheese too quickly can cause it to clump.
  • Season to taste: Taste the sauce before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. A little bit of salt, pepper, and garlic powder can go a long way.
  • Serve immediately: Alfredo sauce is best served immediately after it is made. It can be reheated, but it may not be as creamy and smooth as when it was first made.

Conclusion:

Alfredo sauce is a classic Italian sauce that is enjoyed by people all over the world. It is a versatile sauce that can be used on pasta, chicken, fish, or vegetables. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can easily make a delicious Alfredo sauce at home. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give Alfredo sauce a try. You won't be disappointed!
