Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Linguini

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add linguini and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Alfredo Sauce

    In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Add the Cream

    Pour in the heavy cream and stir well. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  4. 4

    Incorporate the Cheese

    Gradually whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese until the sauce is smooth and creamy. Season with salt and cracked black pepper to taste.

  5. 5

    Combine Pasta and Sauce

    Add the cooked linguini to the sauce and toss to coat the pasta evenly. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to heat through.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Plate the linguini Alfredo and garnish with extra Parmesan cheese and cracked black pepper if desired. Serve immediately.
