HOW TO MAKE FETTUCCINE ALFREDO
Step 1: Cook the fettuccine in a large pot of salted boiling water for 2 minutes less than the package directions. Drain when done, setting aside 1/4 c. of the pasta water.

Step 3: Next, add in 1 c. Parmesan cheese. Mix well until blended.
Step 4: Once the pasta is done, drain and quickly run under cold water.
Step 5: Add the pasta once the sauce has thickened. Toss well until the pasta is coated. Then, stir in the reserved pasta water.
