Description

This fettuccine Alfredo pasta takes a delicious spin on a traditional garlic Alfredo using two cheeses and a special ingredient. Save on sodium and skip putting salt in the sauce. The cheeses have enough salt.

Ingredients

  • 12 ounces, fluid Fettuccine Pasta
  • ¼ cups Parmesan Reggiano Freshly Grated
  • ¼ cups Asiago Cheese, Freshly Grated
  • 3 Tablespoons Butter
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream
  • 1 pinch Nutmeg
  • Salt And Pepper, to taste

Preparation

1. Fill a large pot with water for the pasta, season with salt, place on high heat, and bring to a boil.
2. If grating your own cheese, grate each and set aside.
3. Put the butter and cream in a 12″ skillet or pan large enough to toss the sauce and pasta. Add the nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Heat on medium heat, stirring often, and watch closely to avoid having the milk mixture boil over.
4. Cook over medium heat until the sauce has thickened and reduced by ⅓ (around 5-8 minutes). You will begin seeing the bottom of the pan as you stir through the cream mixture.
5. Add the the Parmesan and Asiago cheese. Mix stirring constantly until the cheese has completely melted. Remove from the heat and cover until the pasta is finished.
6. Cook the pasta, drain, and toss with the sauce. Serve immediately.
