Ingredients
Instructions
In a large pot, cook the Fettuccine until just undercooked. It will finish cooking in the sauce. Reserve a half cup of the cooking water before draining.
While the pasta is cooking, heat the cream and garlic (if using) over low-medium heat in a deep saute pan.
Add butter and whisk gently until melted. Mix in the nutmeg and cheese. Season with freshly grated black pepper. Simmer over medium heat 5 to 7 minutes to thicken slightly. Remove and discard the garlic.
Add the pasta to the pan, and gently toss the pasta to coat in the Alfredo sauce (adding some of the pasta water if needed to loosen).
Taste for seasoning and add salt as needed. Serve immediately.
