Alfredo's of Rome's Original Fettuccine Alfredo image

Recipe courtesy of Russell Bellanca, owner of Alfredo's of Rome. The Original Fettuccine Alfredo was created in 1914 by Alfredo Di Lelio, concocted to tempt the palate of his pregnant wife who had lost her appetite. Until now, the Original Fettuccine Alfredo has been a secret recipe, passed on from generation to generation. At the Alfredo restaurants, the fettuccine noodles are made fresh daily from a mix of three different flours, durum and organic eggs. For home use, however, the cook can purchase fresh fettuccine noodles at most supermarkets and deli's.

Time 10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 lb fresh very thin fettuccine
6 ounces unsalted butter
6 ounces parmigiano-reggiano cheese, grated (aged 24 months)

Steps:

  • Cook the fettuccine noodles in 1 gallon of salted boiling water for three minutes.
  • At the same time, mix the butter at room temperature in a bowl with the grated cheese until the cheese almost dissolves, forming a smooth cream. If using a mixer, this should not take more than three minutes at which time the noodles will be ready.
  • Strain the pasta leaving just a small amount of water and toss the noodles with the Alfredo sauce. Plate the preparation.
  • Cheese lovers may want to sprinkle additional grated cheese on top.

FETTUCCINI ALFREDO PER LAZIO OF ROME

Some interesting info found re: alfredo sauce. "The original owner of Alfredo's Restaurant in Rome, Alfredo Di Lelio, is said to be the originator of this delicious but rich dish of worldwide fame(invented at Alfredo alla Scrofa). He has since passed away, and the recipe for both the fettuccine pasta and the sauce remain secret. Some say the creaminess and lightness of the fettuccine and/or the sauce was in the cheese he used, or the addition of a little olive oil to the preparation of the fettuccine, others that the fettuccine was cooked in milk, still others that he gave each dish his blessing with a final toss using his gold fork and spoon before sending it to table." The quality and taste of the ingredients is the key to success with fettuccine Alfredo - especially the fettuccine and the cheese. The fettuccine should either be freshly made and as thin as possible, or, if store bought, the best fresh (not dry), thinnest pasta you can buy.

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

10 ounces fresh fettuccine or 10 ounces tagliatelle pasta noodles
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup freshly grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese, at room temperature, plus extra cheese to pass at the table (Parmesan)
1 cup heavy cream, very lightly whipped
salt & freshly ground black pepper (use white pepper if you have it)

Steps:

  • NOTE:
  • TIMING is important with this dish - ideally the pasta finishes cooking when your sauce is ready - although the sauce will 'hold' for a short while on very low heat. If you are using fresh fettuccine, it can cook in as little as 2 minutes (plus the time it takes your water to boil), so you must prepare your ingredients accordingly. Fettuccine Alfredo is 'finished' in the pan - the cooked and drained pasta is added directly to the warmed and mixed ingredients in the pan.
  • IN a pan large enough to hold all the pasta , melt the butter over low heat.
  • ADD slowly the slightly whipped heavy cream and whisk either with a whisk or stir continuously with a wooden spoon till it is hot and slightly reduced. (variation: use 1/2 of the cream here, add the rest just at the end before you add the pasta.).
  • ADD slowly the grated cheese as you continue stirring or whisking.
  • COOK the pasta.
  • ADD salt and pepper to the sauce to taste.
  • ADD the cooked and drained pasta, mixing well with a wooden spoon.
  • TURN into a warmed serving bowl, or directly onto warmed plates.
  • PASS grated Parmesan at the table.
  • PERSONAL NOTE:.
  • I went searching for a broccoli and chicken alfredo and found this. I will be adding chicken and broccoli to this, putting it into a greased casserole dish, topping with mozzarella cheese and baking it (at 350F) until the cheese melts.
