Why I love this recipe:
- Easy – Basic ingredients, a few simple steps, and a quick meal for any night of the week, but fancy enough for guests! This is the best fettuccine alfredo!
- Comforting – It’s warm, creamy, and everyone’s favorite! I love to serve it with homemade breadsticks and a wedge salad!
- Delicious from Scratch – Everything is better from scratch, and alfredo is a prime example of that. Jarred alfredo is terrible in comparison to this creamy homemade alfredo sauce.
How to make Fettuccine Alfredo:
Prepare Pasta and Cheese: Boil fettuccine noodles in a large pot of salted, boiling water. Cook according to time on package, until al dente. Reserve some of the hot pasta water. Shred cheese and set aside to allow it to come to room temperature. (Do not use pre-shredded cheese.)Make a Roux: Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Pour in flour and stir for 30 seconds. Toss in garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
