FETTUCCINE ALFREDO CON PROSCIUTTO



Fettuccine Alfredo Con Prosciutto image

Rich and decadent. You'll never want for a better alfredo sauce. (in my humble opinion).The variations on this sauce are tremendous, see following directions. My Italian brother-in-law even highly recommends!

Provided by Billy Starr

Categories     European

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 ounces prosciutto di Parma
1/4 cup butter
2 large shallots
3/4 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup parmigiano-reggiano cheese
1/2 cup pecorino romano cheese
12 ounces fettuccine (even better Spinach Fettucine)
salt and pepper (To taste. Using white pepper will slightly alter the taste from Black and you won't have black dots )
parsley (to garnish)

Steps:

  • The cheese selected here are of the best quality. It's your main ingredient of the sauce, try not to cheat. Parmesean/Romano cheese in a can does not melt at all, because of additives. Highly not recommended.
  • Boil water for pasta, cooking until al-dente.
  • Slice prosciutto into squares.
  • Fine Dice Shallots.
  • Grate Cheeses.
  • Melt butter in a generous sized cooking pan (pan with sides) on low heat. Add shallots and cook till tender/translucent. Add salt and pepper to taste (remember there's alot of salt in these cheeses.) Add heavy cream, stirring constantly until the cream almost boils. Remove from heat. Add drained pasta into pan with cheeses. Stir until you've found decadence in a pan!
  • Soon as I can I'll post a picture, but with green pasta, use a white or cream colored serving dish and garnish with parsley and a few ribbons of parmasean cheese! Bon appetito! (cooking time depends really on your pasta choice).
  • Variations:.
  • For example, skip proscuitto and cook shrimp in sauce before adding pasta and cheese. OMG! Add cooked diced chicken breast. Try pancetta or bacon instead of prosciutto. Use with tortellini? Add Mozarella cheese on top of individual servings and bake it under a 450* pre-heated oven for 10-15 min until mozarella is melted and just starting to brown.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better your fettuccine Alfredo will be. Use fresh fettuccine noodles, high-quality Parmesan cheese, and fresh prosciutto.
  • Don't overcook the noodles: Fettuccine noodles should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked noodles will be mushy and unpleasant.
  • Make the sauce in a double boiler: This will help to prevent the sauce from curdling.
  • Add the Parmesan cheese slowly and gradually: This will help to prevent the sauce from becoming too thick.
  • Season the sauce to taste: Add salt, pepper, and nutmeg to taste.
  • Serve the fettuccine Alfredo immediately: The sauce will start to thicken as it cools, so it's best to serve it right away.

Conclusion:

Fettuccine Alfredo is a classic Italian dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser.
