My mommy's alfredo doesn't taste very good, so could you get the recipe for her? Abigail Bowman, age 6 Jackson FETTUCCINE ALFREDO 1 pound fettuccine, cooked in heavily-salted boiling water 3 cups heavy whipping cream 2 teaspoons garlic, minced Pinch ground nutmeg Salt and pepper to taste 1/3 cup Parmesan, grated In a high-walled skillet add cream, garlic, and nutmeg and reduce over high heat. As the sauce thickens to the point where it will coat the back of a spoon, add the freshly drained pasta to the pan. Add the cheese and adjust the seasonings with salt and pepper. Toss or stir the pasta with a wooden spoon so the cheese melts evenly and does not stick to the pan and burn. When the sauce is thick and coats the pasta, turn off the heat and serve. If the sauce reduces too far and is too thick or "breaks" you can add a touch of cold water and re-toss to bring it back to the right consistency. Yield: 4 servings. "The key to this dish is to time the cooking of the pasta so that it is ready when the sauce is reduced, which will take 5-10 minutes depending on the heat of your cooktop cook·top n.
