Fettuccine Alfredo
Recipe courtesy Giada De Laurentiis

Ingredients
18 ounces fresh fettuccine
2 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
12 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 cups grated Parmesan
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
Pinch freshly grated nutmeg
Salt and freshly ground white pepper

Instructions
Cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender but
still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 4 minutes. Drain.

Stir 2 cups of the cream and the lemon juice in a heavy large skillet to blend. Add the butter and
cook over medium heat just until the butter melts, stirring occasionally, about 3 minutes. Remove

from the heat.

Add the pasta and toss. Add the remaining 1/2 cup of cream, and Parmesan to the cream sauce in the
skillet. Add the lemon zest, nutmeg, salt, and white pepper. Toss the pasta mixture over low heat
until the sauce thickens slightly, about 1 minute.
