I love your delivery of knowledge and soothing commentary. I appreciate how you acknowledge that this isn’t the traditional recipe but understand and explain the benefits of the evolution of this dish.
Looks delish!! 💟
Update: It is very delicious!! And easy to make. Thank you for posting this recipe!!!
Your smile is so great! You made me so happy watching this and I'm going to make prawn alfredo for my family dinner tomorrow :) thanks!
The secret is to use A LOT of butter and parm. It will be creamier than cream.
DON'T make the sauce separate from the pasta. Mix the hot, fresh-from-the-pan pasta with the butter and parm. It will not break or clump. Add a little pasta water if needed. It's even richer than if you use cream.
I love the way you made the sauce and since I have all the ingredients and a box of shrimp I will make some with the shrimp and see how it turns out. Thanks for sharing this recipe with us all.
Really love this very detailed! Willl try this soon
Youvare so clear and articulate so well each step. I eagerly wait for each of your videos...

@@flame4986 It's fettuccine americano
Thank you! It was super easy to make and my family loved it :)
Thanks for the sauce recipe. Great preparation and presentation.
Thomas has never led me astray. Always perfection
You are so perfect,well done thank you chef 👨🍳
This is bangn'. Good teacher. I added sauteed mushrooms. So good. Thanks Mr. Joseph.
I just made this! Very good!
You killed it, so easy to follow!
i added some lemon pepper and it was amazing. Thank you. This is perfect
Best one yet..thank you Sparkles..
Great helpful tips!
Not sure what the conundrum was but it’s a very good recipe.
Wow!! Such a nice and easy recipe 😋😋
Thank you!!
Great job...even a novice in the kitchen like me could follow your instructions. Thanks for sharing...looking forward to making this dish in my kitchen soon!
A slightly easier method is to melt the butter in water, "melt" the cheese in that mix and then add the pasta. If you insist on adding cream, put it in after the cheese is integrated into the butter-water (butter-cheese-water.)
Well done chef!
Thank you!
Excellent Recipes mouthwatering Recipes my friend thanks for sharing i support you 👌👌😛😛💐💐💐
Fabuloso !!!
Thank you for the recipe and the tips, this time I will add the cheese after removing the pan off the heat. :)
I love this man
Great Video .
I'm definitely going to try this! My alfredo always splits and now I see why. Thanks!
Me too! What a game changer
Oh good! I've always been alfredo having that happen!
😂 (I see what you did there... Clever!)
wonderful
This is just like the recipe I have been using for years, I just add Lemon Pepper & and other times I add a hint of Paprika.
I love Lemon Pepper and it's always good on any food. It's give more flavor.
Thanks
Thomas Joseph, again, thank you for ALL your knowledge and appreciate your assistance in keeping us away from clumpy and thin sauce!!!! LOVE you!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Happy Pride 💜💙💚🧡❤️🎊🎉🍾🥂🍹🌈
Wooow looks tasty and delicious 😋
Very Nice
Your tip to finely mince is very important ! I learned that too and is makes the difference in chomping on garlic bits or just enjoying the flavor! Well done!
Thanks for sharing 9-26-2021., I have some fresh Noodles for Alfredo., it tastes better with Heavy Cream to me, because that’s what I use and many fresh cheeses 🧀
Excellant
Nice video 👌
I wonder who this guys english teacher was his vocab is spot on!
Oh my that was easy and you made me hungry! LOL
I’m in love with carbonara
Great video! The audio had some artifacts that persisted throughout any spoken portions of the video.
Tried this and LOVED IT!!!! How much parmesan cheese was added? 1/4 cup ??? THANK YOU
Looks like 1/2 cup.
I like the consistency of making a roux heavy cream gets all curdled up when you reheat it roux is much better
Roux gets it thick and yucky though. Can't stand that at all
Yummy
Haven't cooked fettuccini in so long but this video convinced me otherwise. I'm a penne alfredo lover now but I wanted to know what other pastas go well with alfredo sauce.
Not sure not sure yet I'll let you know when I try :p
Cajun spice sprinkled on is delicious.
You are so good at cooking🤩👍👍👍 Looks so delicious 😍hi my new friend 🤝🛎👌
Could i use a blonde roux and milk instead of cream? Want this today, but don’t have cream on hand.
In the original recipe you don't cook the butter. You use the heat of the cooked pasta to melt butter and emulsify it together with the cheese. It is a similar technique to making Italian carbonara except you whip it on a cold plate. Most American Italian restaurants add cream because they don't know how to make it properly so they have to add cream to stabilize it.
I am making it now, but at Morrisons I could only get linguine, or tag,
4:45 I don't think he really wanted to do that exchange.
The separation happens many times with me. No fun! I’m gonna try this. Thank you
If you don't make the sauce in a pan, but rather mix the pasta straight from the hot water with butter and parm, it will turn into a sauce and it won't separate. Just add a spoon or more of pasta water if you need more liquid. It's so good.
@@kremove I’ll try that, thank you :)
Thanks but could you provide a link to the actual recipe...
Don't want thin and smooth...I want thick and luscious!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭
Can you use a combination of cheeses,I did not know you would use parmesan. Looks delicious👍🌈
Maria I’ve made it with a Parmesan and Romano. Any aged, drier cheese should work. If you used a meltier cheese, it would come out differently...still yummy, but different. :)
@@stephaniemcdonald1244 Thank you,will try your Parm& Romano🌈
I find adding cornstarch keeps the smooth consistency, and then you can sort of make the flavor more mild by adding more milk but yet not turn it watery. I like strong flavored food but it’s not to everyone’s liking. Additionally I do find that it does like to separate when trying to cook it, I make mine a little bit more involved than you do yours… So the corn starch acts very perfectly.
Try adding a small juiced onion when making enough for 4 to 6 people, as well I add garlic as you did, and white pepper.
This month I’m gonna get back to making UA-cam videos, and this summer my recipe for Alfredo as well as hollandaise sauce will be posted on my channel. As well as my very special crêpe recipe from my grandmother. And my gardening/landscaping, art painting, home remodel of my 150-year-old country school turned cottage, and most important the marketing of my up-and-coming first autobiography in a series of four.
cornstarch is unnecessary; add pasta water instead and cook it through. there should be enough starch in the water to keep a proper emulsification. most of the starch should be released into the water well before the pasta should be taken out of the water, so over cooked pasta shouldnt be a problem either
OnionButtons I have forgotten that, but have heard about adding the pasta water before. Only problem is I typically use ready made stuffed pasta in the refrigerated section. So less starchy water to work with.
PS: if you can find it, asparagus pasta stuffed with ricotta blend is amazing!

👀 who you talking to?
What kind of cream did you used can you send the name
For a touch of freshness I add fresh parsley and a variety of barely cooked veggies for a more balanced dish, thanks for the tips tho.
A touch of Nutmeg !
How much sauce does this make?
How about adding sauteed mushrooms and chopped Italian parsley?
Measurement of cheese??????
I've been eating OG Alfredo my entire life. Two ingredients: butter and parmesan
Thank you! Tried to make pasta and ended up with dog food. Next time I'm following this
Looks delicious! I don't see why so much objection to using "heavy cream" I mean it's pretty much butter in liquid form, whip heavy cream long enough and it BECOMES butter so makes sense to use it...just my humble opinion.
How much Parmesan?
It would be nice to know how much cheese he used.
Why you use unsalted butter if you add salt at the end of your recipe ?
Because if you start the sauce with salt, then it's going to make it quite salty after reducing it. You want to enhance the flavor not be overwhelmed by how salty it is. Gives you control over how much salt you add to your taste.
I only use unsalted butter when I do pastry :)
Thanks! What are your most inexpensive meals?
Tuna Casserole
4 tbs unsalted butter
1 clove minced garlic
1 cup heavy cream
Parmesan cheese (didn't say how much)
white pepper please.
Serve immediately. If left to sit too long it will become gunky because the pasta will absorb all the moisture in the sauce.
I dream of pasta
What about nutmeg?!
THOMAS !!!!!! MARRY ME !!!!! XOXOXOXOXOX
Can you use half and half instead of heavy cream?
Yes bit it's more likely to separate because less fat to hold it together
How much cheese?
Did he tell exactly how much grated Parmesan to put in it?
Some recipes say 4-5 oz.
Can I switch butter with coconut oil?
No! The flavor is in the butter. Coconut oil will be bland
Wow, mouth is watering....although I must say: that was A LOT of heavy cream...for me, more parm a tad less cream but still, I learned something better that I already knew: Americans have turned Alfredo into a silky creamy delight which as you say is at this point more American than it is Italian. 9.5 out of 10
i really wanna make this but i’m scared i’ll fail and waste my ingredients 😭
I make a delicious Alfredo and I never needed all that butter.
Can you show us how to make a Vodka sauce?
Martha Stewart
I made Alfredo sauce once and ruined it a couple of years ago. But I watched another video and this one. It was this one that explained why my cheese coagulated last time. Tonight's sauce was just as you showed it. I will not fear to tread here again!
I made it while dating my husband. Years later I asked if he liked it. He said he could sparkle the walls with it. 😳
😋👍
Why would you add a bunch more salt without tasting the sauce first?
You do know that when using just butter and cheeses, you do not put the butter over high heat. In a pan, you should just use low heat. Normally you put the butter on a hot plate to melt, add the cheese and mix, and then add the noodles and mix.
Please, dont swear: those are not fettuccine ... they are LINGUINE.
Not even the name ... 😖
Most Americans and American Italians think that this is authentic.
Al Dante
You did not tell us how much cheese you put into the sauce…
Looks like 3/4s of a cup.
What is a substitute for cream? Avoid the calories? Thanks!
Coconut milk? I dont know the diffrent amount of callories between those 2.
Half and half
dont like rice or pasta, baby new potatoes in this sauce yum
What could you use instead of garlic? Garlic as well as all "hot" spices make me terribly ill. Love Alfredo but have not made. Would just butter, heavy cream , cheese not be bland? What about light use of pepper. Like the lemon zest idea, for the amount of butter and cream you used, how much zest would be suggested? Thanks for a reply.
Nutmeg goes well with white sauce. You could use shallots. You could add parsley to finish.
Can you handle onion? I use a food processor to nearly liquify onion on mine. I have even thought of just juicing an onion instead.
Not for your taste/pleasure; but soon I will be back making vids- wide variety or creations and such; but my Alfredo sauce is going to be one of them.
to be honest, butter and parm reg is all you really need. cream makes it bland because it masks the complexity of the butter and parm. if you really want to add cream, try making another classic dish. its all the ingredients above including the juice of 1 lemon and its zest. the flavour is completely different from what you might expect from a rich dish but its completely sublime.
if youre going with my above suggestion, you might need a different technique or you will destroy your sauce. all you need is 1 pot. boil your pasta, poor off most of the water off (leave a good amount of water so your sauce doesnt go dry and pasty), off the heat, throw in butter and emulsify, then add cheese and emulsify
@@angellover02171 Thank you for the suggestion.
@@FynnOliverEmonSill Thank you for your reply. Yes, I can tolerate onion - thank goodness. I use onion in many things to keep the recipe from being bland. Thanks again.
you didn't say how much cheese
