So the few things I CAN cook tend to be shockingly good, and often I don't have a recipe.
I'm going to teach you how to make alfredo,the way I was taught.
No,it isn't low fat. Don't eat a gallon of it.
You'll need.
- A carton of heavy whipping cream
- Butter (or margerine - whatever, but butter is better)
- Salt
- Garlic powder (you can use fresh garlic but then it's YOUR recipe)
- Parmesan Cheese (the kind in the green can, not fresh or again,it's YOUR recipe lol)
Pour the cream into a pan and turn on medium heat until it's warm but not bubbly. DO NOT LET IT BOIL.
Once it's reasonably hot, drop in about two TBSPs of butter/margerine and stir until they melt.
Now, this next part is all to taste. Remember, you can add more - you cannot TAKE OUT once it's in, so go light.
Shake in some garlic powder, sat and parmesan - and stir. Make sure the parmesan gets completely mixed and isn't stuck in lumpy bits. You might need to turn up the heat slightly to facilitate this.
Now, taste it.
Continue to add garlic powder and parmesan until you've used about 3/4 of the can of parmesan- or to the place where it tastes RIGHT to you. Remember, each time you add, stop, stir, get all the ingredients fully mixed and taste. If it's not right, add a little more.
The cream will thicken with the additions, and you'll find yourself realizing when the taste is where you want it pretty quickly. After it is where you want it, let it cook another five or ten minutes, stirring constantly, to thicken it further and voila.
Best Alfredo Ever.
