Marvee!
That is how I make Swiss cheese pasta with elbows.
Yes! That is Al Fredo! Thank you!
This was delicious! I made it yesterday and I'm looking forward to leftovers 🙂 Thank you!
I cannot STAND Alfredo sauce but this looks like something I might like. Thank you for a really simple recipe. I will try this one for my son who LOVES it
It is a good idea to save the Parmesan-Reggiano rind for other recipes, but DO NOT CUT OFF THE RIND until you are finished grating your cheese, unless grated fingers is one of the ingredients in your recipe. 2:50
This is an appalling bastardization of the authentic technique, and I’m shocked ATK is still using anything from Barilla, considering their hateful stance on equality issues. Shame on you.
This looks like noodles with Parmesan and butter. Interesting. No cream, no garlic, no garbage. I have always been told Alfredo is an American invention.
Does anyone else use Pecorino Romano along with the Parmesan? I usually use a ratio of 2 parts Parmesan to 1 part Pecorino Romano.
My go-to comfort food is high quality artisanal bread. French baguette or Italian Ciabatta for crusty. Italian loaf for pillowy soft crumb. Japanese Shokupan for the best sandwich bread ever! A little butter and I am in heaven!
This is the ONLY WAY I make this dish. It is delicious. I cannot stand American Fettuccine Alfredo with cream in it. Way to rich…. I do add a light sprinkle of Parmigiana when I serve it.
Hi, I just made this for the family. Thank you for the video and recipe. Followed the recipe exactly as presented. It tasted fine, but the family just wasn't crazy about it…too bland I think. It is kind of of an Italian version of a cheese quesadilla. Ok… but kind of plain.
Shrimp or chicken might have kicked it up a notch.
I'll try this again sometime with a little something added.
She was in trouble when she added the butter… The Italians are coming for you…
Looks good, I'll add it to my, "to try and do" list. That list grows by leaps and bounds with access to all the great youtube cooking channels out there.👍🏼
My favorite comfort food is my own cheese (I use Clearfield White American) steak hoagie with grilled green bell peppers and sweet onions. Topped with (Chef John's recipe from Food Wishes) homemade Crème Fraîche on a (King Arthur's recipe) fresh baked hoagie roll. The combination of flavors from the tangy-ness of the (only) two ingredient crėme fraîche along with the sweetness of the pepper & onion and the melt in your mouth, almost buttery, clean, beefy flavor of a quality piece of grassfed, shaved ever so thin beef steak, piled on a freah baked hoagie roll, is my go to when I want something fulfilling, comforting and just down right delicious.
My second favorite would be Ham Potpie. Not the type of potpie that's filling between two crusts and baked, but the kind that's similar to chicken & dumplings. I use a homemade noodle, not a dumpling type noodle, not a egg noodle. My noodles have 4 ingredients and poof up and stick to your ribs… so delicious and is a easy to make recipe, but does require some time to cook all that goodness out of the ham bone, definitely a meal for crisp and chilly, fall & winter days.
It's really hard to pick a favorite when I love food as much as I do.💗
Ashley is such a cutie pie! 🥰
Looks absolutely delicious!
Made this for supper; followed her recipe to the T and it was delicious. Thank you!!
What’s the best gluten free pasta? So sad my daughter can have the real stuff.
Oddly enough, Fettuccine Alfredo is not something that the Italian side of my family ever made. But I love it and have been trying to figure out how to make right. So, thank you!!! 😊
Fried chicken and mashed potatoes and gravy. My go to, comfort meal.
Hang on….no cream?!?!

I never use the green can. Stopped doing that after I became a full sized adult.
