Make sure you use eggs

>>12301261
No
Alfredo sauce is garbage invented by flyovers to pretend their aversion to flavor is exotic
Also, someone in this thread will tell you that you just need to get "good" alfredo sauce. Ignore this poster. They are either obese or a shitposter.

Fat and flour.
Fat and fucking flour.

People prepare for the worst… but hope for the best. They concentrate on the things that are important to them. All the things beyond fat and flour.

>>12301289
People shouldn't eat flour anyways
Makes you die from blood clot in the brain.

I like it when making a quick pasta dinner and I don’t have White wine stocked. I ignore the stuff you can buy since it’s very quick to make

>>12301261
I suspect you're not from Italy.
If the recipe is just burro and parmigiano, it is a fucking basic dish done everytime you cannot eat too much stuff, when you're ill for example, or when you really have just the time to cook the pasta.

We just don't call it alfredo and we don't make it with fettuccine because that would be a waste of the fettuccine.

>>12301270
You can add garlic, pepper, Parmesan, Romano, parsley, and whatever else to Alfredo sauce. It doesn't have to be bland.

>>12301261
>>12301270
Yeah lol those dumb Americans

>Serving fettuccine with butter and cheese was first mentioned in a 15th-century recipe for maccaroni romaneschi ('Roman pasta') by Martino da Como, a northern Italian cook active in Rome; the recipe cooks the noodles in broth or water and adds butter, "good cheese" (the variety is not specified) and "sweet spices".

Modern fettuccine Alfredo was invented by Alfredo di Lelio in Rome. According to family accounts, in 1892 Alfredo di Lelio began to work in a restaurant that was located in piazza Rosa and run by his mother Angelina. Di Lelio invented "fettuccine al triplo burro"[3] (later named "fettuccine all'Alfredo" or "fettuccine Alfredo") in 1907 or 1908 in an effort to entice his wife, Ines, to eat after giving birth to their first child Armando. Alfredo added extra butter or "triplo burro” to the fettuccine when mixing it together for her.

>>12301306
Op here

just because i want to try the sauce and i asked if its worth trying it, it dosent mean im not from Italy lel.
If it's just "burro e parmigiano" why call it alfredo? It can't be just that.

>>12301328
So Alfredo sauce is literally retarded women's food.

>>12301328
>Alfredo added extra butter or "triplo burro”
I had an heart attack just from reading it

>>12301331
Speak italian so we know you are not an imposter.

>>12301331
The usual recipe I’ve seen is something like:

>1 tablespoon butter
>1 tablespoon flour
>1 cup milk
>4 oz Parmesan cheese
>parsley
>oregano
>minced garlic
>pinch of allspice
>salt and pepper to taste

Melt the butter in a pan, add the flour and make a blonde roux, gradually add the milk and bring it to a simmer. Grate the cheese while stirring, then add the spices and cooked noodles, simmer until thickened.

>>12301353
im gonna try it for sure!

>>12301365
Cut that shit out you filthy Moor

>>12301367
Women it eat, which is worse.

>>12301372
I estimated the amount of milk and cheese so definitely adjust that if it seems to thin or too thick.

>>12301380
I usually do 1.5 tbsp of each per cup, 1 is a bit thin

You know when an argument is won when someone out points your grammar mistakes instead of actually putting forth a rebuttal.

>>12301261
I'm a burger, and no, I don't like Alfredo sauce. I fucking never eat that shit. It's too heavy, it's too tasteless. It's like pouring wallpaper paste over your pasta. I don't know how it became a thing, but I curse those devils.

>>12301541
A resturant in Rome (Il Vero Alfredo, right next to Augustus' Mausoleum) scammed a bunch of burger celebrities by upselling a bitter and parmesan fish (for the record, that's something you eat when ill in Italy), who came back to the US and spread It, in turn also creating variante with chicken and suchlike.

>>12301674
>bitter and parmesan fish

>>12301353
>Grate the cheese while stirring

Where do you get "retarded" from, you absolute incel?

>>12301758
he needs to be edgy apparently

am from america and have never liked it, but only ever had it out of jars. always found it to be either bland or weirdly sweet as a lot of foods here are, it'd be fun to try and make though

>>12301758
What kind of retard can only eat cheesy butter noodles after giving birth? Calling someone an incel for calling a woman retarded makes you sound like a fat bitter bitch who can't find a mate while all of your skinny peers are in comminted relationships. Are women not allowed to be called out for retarded behavior anymore?

>>12301328
That's a far cry from what passes for Alfredo sauce here in the US. Here is mostly processed bullshit from a jar made from ingredients like soybean oil and xanathan gum.

>>12301836
mmmmh yummy

>>12301827
Loss of appetite has always been an indicator of possible health problems. If the guy's wife wasn't eating normally after giving birth that was cause for concern. As a good husband he did what he could to get her to eat.

>>12301345
>an heart attack
>an
I will say this until I am dead. You do not put "an" before any word starting with "H". Its so fucking common here, I feel like its either a british thing because they don't pronounce the H, or its foreigners not understanding english grammar.

>>12301848
an hero

>>12301847
this. It clearly states that he did in a way to entice her to eat it, which is why it was so rich and creamy, it was literally made as a comfort food that most people wouldnt say no to. Youre literally an incel lmfao

>>12301863

>>12301847
She's still a retard for only being able to eat cheesy butter noodles. I guess the modern equivalent would be your wife eating nothing but Kraft maccycheese after birthing. That's a classic diet of spergs and tards.

>>12301872
There's a reason comfort food exists. Don't forget giving birth was a much bigger deal back then - a lot more women died in childbirth than do now.

>>12301863
>incel

>>12301950
If more women had access to Pasta Alfredo in the developing world a lot of unnecessary postbirth maternal death would be prevented.

>>12301751
Fair, what I meant to type is "grate the cheese and then slowly add to the mixture while stirring" or something like that.

>>12301289
So basically it's roux/bechamel?
Just with fat instead of butter?

>>12302104
It's bechamel with Parmesan and spices.

Are you seriously asking mericans suggests on pasta? No. Just make some lasagne and cook your own besciamella bro
With hate from italy

It's probably too spicy for you anyway

Because that's how everyone who's eaten flour has died.

>>12301827
You are an immature, selfish brat, apparently. Grow the fuck up and realize that pregnancy and the birthing process can cause all kinds of complications and symptoms and is very hard on the body. A woman's body goes through a major physical change during pregnancy and during labor and delivery. Imagine you had a condition at least once (or most likely twice or three times) in you life that caused your bones and muscles to move and reposition themselves, caused your hormones to run off the charts, caused the blood flow in your body to change, along with more I can't think of right now. I bet you'd act like a little bitch, so shut the fuck up. Any woman who's given birth can eat anything she damn well wants to, and if she wants something like alfredo sauce (no matter what anyone personally thinks about it) she damn well should get it.

>t. bitter incel who married a houseboat sized woman

Not all women are histrionic fatbodied retards despite what your Schumer esque wife has made you believe

>>12302558
the thing is that we have "quattro formaggi" that's pasta with high quality blue cheese and others.

>>12302568
You're responding to the wrong person. My wife isn't the one who ate the alfredo. Actually, my wife hates alfredo sauce with a passion. The only thing she really wanted after giving birth was some ice cold pineapple (and then, the next day she wanted a burger). But, I'll still defend any woman's right to eat whatever the fuck they want after giving birth. And if you had any balls, so would you.

>>12302585
That is the same as alfredo but with a variety of cheeses instead and possibly less butterfat, you're not missing out by not having "alfredo"

>>12302594
If you had any balls you would be able to call anybodys food choices retarded when they're cleary retarded. You're a fedora tipper acting like women are fragile beings who are beyond reproach when in reality women are just people with different genitals than you.

>>12302422
kek

>>12302654
LOL, goddamn your'e an idiot. First of all, women are not fragile, they're stronger in many ways than men. Giving birth is fucking proof of that. And I'm much too old to be a "fedora tipper". You, however, are obviously extremely immature and have very little life experience. Grow the fuck up, selfish boy.

>>12302684
Your insistence that all women are the same is incredibly naive and disrespectful to women who actually deserve to be celebrated. Don't lump caring mothers in with the ones who discard their newborns in dumpsters or get abortions at 8 months pregnant or abandon or abuse their small children. It sounds like you've known about 3 women in your whole life and luckily they're all great people. What you don't understand is that first and foremost women are individuals. You're patronizing women by insisting that merely being female requires some sort of unquantifiable inner strength. You also make blanket assumptions about people based on their use of a single meme buzzword.

>>12301270
Jesus Christ. Did a flyover fuck your wife or something? Why is every thread filled with flyover rage?

>>12301836
Please make higher quality posts in the future instead of making baseless accusations about products you know nothing about.

>>12302654
Food is food how is any of it retarded? I really think you have a disorder you’re not mentioning. I can’t understand how you think eating any food is retarded in the slightest. It’s all personal opinions, why shit all over people for it? Please stop feeling superior on an anonymous cooking forum, it makes me sad.

>>12302750
Because flyovers are literally the absolute worst people in US and wholly deserve to be mocked and denigrated at every possible occassion.

>>12302808
>Food is food how is any of it retarded?
The same way any choice can be retarded in a number of ways, you treehugging hippie.

>>12302749
Ok, that's all well and good, but how is Alfredo "retarded women's food"? Because you don't like it? And why is she "retarded"? Because she wasn't hungry after giving birth? Are YOU retarded?

>>12302808
You're right. Every diet is equally valid and worthy of celebration and not ridicule. Who cares if you die at 40 from Type 2 diabetes and leave your kids and wife behind? You lived your best life.

>>12302749
LOL, you are reading WAY too much into my post, which just exemplifies how much of a wacko you are. Projecting your own thoughts into what other people say, instead of actually comprehending what another person is saying is a mark of being 1. Narcissistic and 2. Not the brightest bulb on the tree.

Not him, but if you were to stop for a moment doing an pol9k caricatur-tier impression of a whipped feminist söyboy, you could actually come up with answers yourself thereby avoiding the need to type out autistic walls altogether.

>>12302909

My sauce goes like this
Butter in a pan, ass garlic, rosemary, oregano, parsley, and bay leaf to the butter and fry it all. Adding more butter untill you have a good thick layer of infused butter. Then you pick the bay leaf out. Add heavy cream, then add romano and parmesan until it thickens. Flour if absolutely nessecary. Then add in a bit of white wine

It's just reduced cream with cheese, pepper, and a bit of nutmeg. People telling you to make a Mornay sauce are tetarded.

>>12304232
Are you the trilby tipper with the fat retarded wife?

>>12301261
I enjoy it. It's relatively simple: butter, garlic, flour (roux), milk (bechamel), hard cheese (mornay), usually a bit of protein, and parsley or something just to pretend I'm not just loading up on fat and carbs.

>>12301847
>>12302496
Not him but he has a point. If she was capable of thinking logically, she would know that she needs to eat whether she liked the way the food tasted or not. For example men can eat MRE's despite them tasting like crap because they know they need energy for survival. But apparently women are too retarded to understand this basic concept, and cucked faggots like you give them a pass because they were pregnant. Boo fucking hoo.

We have proof that the resturant owner was scamming the American celebrity clients that ultimately brought about the "Alfredo sauce".

It didn't happen exactly that way (and, as a Romeanon, I can tell you he was proud of the escamotage, as are his descendants to this day), but it's pretty damn close.

>>12304478
Only thanks to a system that both sides want to abolish, but never get around doing it because it'd make them look like dictators.

>>12301827
Have you ever given birth? You think women are just fine and fucking dandy after and that there are no complications or side effects? Jesus christ. Next thing you know you're going to say giving birth is retarded why do women do it

>if she was capable of thinking logically and somehow eliminated all the hormones flowing through her body during pregnancy she's just eat the food.

I'm out of this thread. Retards wants a birthing woman to somehow overcome her entire biological imperatives.

>>12306495
Kill yourself faggot.

>>12302779
It's true, go look at a can of Newman Zone

>>12306499
No. They want to be able to call some of the ridiculous dietary choices of pregnant women and new mothers retarded without being called misogynists which is pretty reasonable. Ask a pregnant woman what she thinks about her crazy food cravings and combinations and she'll probably tell you they're retarded. When my friend was pregnant she craved gherkins and velveeta which she laughed at and called crazy. You're mistaking joking about female behaviors with haing women.

>>12302779
There's simply no defense for the garbage that makes up about 80% of what's sold in American grocery stores.

>>12304252
You're a fucking moron. Do you see lots of severely injured soldiers asking for MREs? No, you don't. Labor and delivery is serious business, and causes serious trauma to a woman's body. The first thing they need is medical care, and the SLEEP. Not eating is an extremely normal response. Many women even have IVs hooked up to keep them hydrated and to give them pain meds. You're a pissy little tosser who doesn't know fucking anything about which you are talking.

>>12304408
Coastal cities do tend to be more metropolitan because they are port cities and tourist cities. Nearly every "new thing" that comes to a country starts with coastal cities and rolls inland. That's just how the world fucking works, dude. Don't be so butthurt about it.

>>12307019
If the posters weren't being so hateful, then people wouldn't be responding this way. They're not "lol women's cravings be crazy", they're acting spiteful and piggish about something that they can't even imagine and know nothing about.

The one thing I miss about living in flyover country (besides my family) is the lower prices. But other than that, I like it here better. And, I tried to stay there and work, because I wanted to be close to my family, but there weren't any jobs that paid enough and let me use my degree, which is why I moved here. So, I'm thinking the butthurt one doth be YOU.

>>12304225
You're discarding the opinion of roughly half the country in one fell swoop. Noneof these 50 million people could possibly have an opinion that matters on cheesy pasta sauce.

>>12309901
They didn't have a term for post partum depression back then. She was depressed after giving birth so she wasn't eating. Not eating made her husband concerned, and rightfully so. They guy makes her a dish that qualifies as comfort food and she eats it. Eventually the dish makes it onto his menu named after him and becomes popular because people like comfort food. How is this so difficult to understand? Autism?
