We challenged chefs of three different levels – an amateur, a home cook and a professional chef – to make their versions of Fettuccine Alfredo. And then we brought in a food scientist to review their work. Which Alfredo was the best?
Check out the level 3 recipe on the ICE food blog:

I like nutmeg….does that make me Carribean?
One day Frank will be able to create pasta with his mind. And I'm all for it
I can eat this dish causes my stomach missbehsve lol
Frank: that dried stuff on the shelf is already dead. The pepper you gotta grind…*momentary death stare* still alive
😂 (also Stephen and Julie are precious and hilarious too)
Love when she said the Jamaican secret weapon 🤣🥰
truffle…. gross
Stephen was so right when he threw shade at Olive Garden for having salty fettuccine alfredo. I work there, and one of my managers told me how much sodium is in an order of chicken alfredo, and it's concerning.
What’s crazy is Alfredo sauce doesn’t come from Italy but from France and the first recipe was closer to the original. Also someone should tell the first guy to remove his Skillet from the heat before adding the cheese
I am Italian and I live in Rome all three are not original, the first one gets a zero, the second one gets a 5 she is was pretty close, I would have given her more points if she didn't add the parsley and nutmeg, the last one I would give a 9 but no truffles or pepper go on that dish although I would eat his pasta. But let's face it who is going to buy a whole parmigiano cheese wheel to make that at home? I have eaten fettucine and porcini mushrooms in wheel of parmigiano cheese. The professor lady pronounces fettucine wrong, all Americans do
my mother is the only professional chef for fettuccine alfredo
None of these are a true Afredo
Steven really reminds me of beast mode
Mandeville girl, big up yuh self! 🇯🇲 It's not a nice thing knowing you can't access all the spices, herbs, fruits and vegetables you grew up on.
I feel like there should be a level zero that pours from a can/bottle
This particular video, maybe because it really resonates with my love for FetAlfredo, showcases the awesomeness of this triad cooking show concept! You can learn a LOT about a relatively simple dish/recipe this way, 3 heads are better than one some times!
REALLY frank??? Wasting that whole cheese wheel to show off??????? WTF!
2:53 his smile can make someone day
They all win! Great cooks! Thanks for the training
All 3 chefs are fabulous and I learned from ALL 3, although FRANK was stunning with the wheel of cheese !
Stop with the heavy cream.Like Fettuccine Alfredo is the most simple pasta it's just Cheese,Pasta and Butter why you'll gotta make it complicated by adding vegetables,chicken and other stuff.
food scientist ?
hahahaha
YO LVL 1 LOOKS MOST BUSSIN EVERYTIME! PROVE ME WRONG 👏
I was waiting for Frank to go to the fields to grow the wheat for the flour, grow the chickens for the eggs and raise the calf for the cheese. I guess you guys fast forwarded those parts.
Started the video and saw Steven 😒😒😒 did not like him since the biryani episode
Whys it say 4 levels but theres always 3
Yoooo level 1s looks the best!
No garlic from 2 and 3? Terrible imo.
Frank with his wasting half a wheel of cheese is a disgrace to the profession
"Our stove goes to 11" "But couldn't you just make 10 the highest?" "Our stove goes to 11"
I want nutmeg smuggled in from Jamaica too
Stephen's looks the most appealing to me. I have to have that meat or veggie bulk in my pasta.
Level up your fettuccine game with this $2k wheel of cheese!
💚🇯🇲
I hate when people say they are doing a technique(emulsification) while can clearly see that it's not happening. She needed a lot less water and a lot faster whisking.
The first guy is broke
The level 3 chef put in so much truffle that's all you're gonna taste.
The level 1 guys is sooo funny 😂
"I love Parmesan. Every time I go to the restaurant, I give the person like carpal tunnel. They're like, say when, I never say when."
"Add a little bit of garlic, broccoli, then our mushrooms… so it can look pretty, like myself."
Gordon Ramsay would have some thoughts on the summer truffles.
Pasta al buto pasta with butter so suprise.. A WHOLE WHEEL OF CHEESE
All of them are adorable
If one stick of butter is 700 cals, I'm never eating this again XD But great video! Both funny and informative. I love this series.
I want to know more about the level 2 lady. She seems to have both roots in Jamaica and Northern Italy with is a really interesting combination
Id try all the foods of level 2 chefs
Steven’s gf never been to a proper restaurant before.. since she was ok getting committed with such a cheap excuse for a man
