Craving a comforting bowl of pasta in a creamy sauce? Real alfredo should never (never!) include cream; the silky sauce is the result of an emulsion between the grated cheese, melted butter, and starchy pasta water. The "Alfredo" in fettuccine Alfredo is Alfredo di Lelio who operated a restaurant in Rome. I present both Fettuccine Alfredo versions here — the classic and the creamy. Love creamy pasta but need a dairy-free option?
