Instructions
-
1Cook fettuccine in plenty of salted water until al dente. Reserve 2 cups pasta water.
-
2For the classic Roman version (no cream): Drain pasta, immediately return to warm pot.
-
3Remove pot from heat. Add cold butter cubes. Toss pasta until butter melts and combines.
-
4Stir in Parmesan in portions, alternating with splashes of pasta water — keep stirring constantly.
-
5The sauce forms through emulsion of butter, starch, and cheese — it should be silky and creamy.
-
6For US variation: Heat cream with optional garlic, reduce, then stir in butter and cheese.
-
7Serve immediately in deep, preheated bowls — Alfredo doesn't wait.
-
8Top each portion with a small dollop of cannabis butter. Grind fresh black pepper over it.
Pro Tips
- Real Alfredo has no cream — only butter, Parmesan, and pasta water. Simple and perfect.
- Finely grated Parmesan is essential — coarsely grated clumps and won't emulsify properly.
- Cannabis butter and regular butter look identical — it blends in seamlessly.
- For richer flavor: use 1–2 tbsp mascarpone instead of cream for extra creaminess.
