Fettuccine Alfredo (Original Recipe)

8 oz. Fettuccine
4 Tbsp Butter
Reserved Pasta Water 8 oz.
Freshly Grated Parmesan Regiano (2 cups freshly (very finely) grated) *no
substitutes*
Kosher Salt

1 Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil.

2 Slice the butter into chunks and place them in a large bowl.

3 Boil the fettuccine according to package directions until al dente.

A couple mins before the pasta is done, reserve 1 cup of pasta water and
let it cool slightly while the pasta finishes cooking.

4 Drain the hot pasta and place it in the bowl with the butter.

Add ~1/4 cup pasta water and mix with a large spoon for ~30
seconds until the butter begins to melt and coat the noodles.

5 Add the grated parmesan along with a couple more tablespoons of pasta
water.

Mix vigorously, adding more pasta water as needed a couple tablespoons at a
time, until the cheese melts and emulsifies into a thick and creamy sauce.

If you accidentally add too much pasta water you can re-balance the sauce
by adding more grated parmesan.

6 Serve immediately with some more grated parm on top and enjoy!
