An Italian pasta favorite with a traditional creamy white sauce that blends butter, Parmesan cheese and cream.
The story goes that a classic Alfredo sauce back in the 1500s was simply melted butter with parmesan cheese. As time evolved, cream was added to this sauce to make it more decadent and creamy.
While this dish is far from low calorie and a definite indulgence, it is one of the simplest sauces to make and is a far different taste than you will find in a jar on store shelves.
