Here's the Pasta Alfredo recipe :
----------------------------
Pasta dough
250g flour
250g semolina
7 eggs
Make a well, stir, knead, rest 30min, knead a little more, divide in 4.
flatten as thin as possible, make fettuccine, dust with flour.
---
No-cream "Cream"
120g butter, smeared at the bottom of a wide dish
210g parmigiano, very fine. Keep that for dusting the pasta once in the dish.
----
30s cooking, slide them straight onto the dish
Add 1-2 ladles of pasta water, sprinkle with cheese
Fold and swirl, repeat. Add water if necessary. Eat. Tweak if you want.
Fettuccine Alfredo is a popular pasta dish that originated in Italy. It typically consists of fettuccine pasta noodles tossed in a rich and creamy sauce made from butter, Parmesan cheese, and heavy cream. The sauce is usually seasoned with salt, pepper, and sometimes nutmeg.
The dish is named after Alfredo di Lelio, an Italian restaurateur who created this recipe in the early 20th century. Legend has it that Alfredo created the dish to please his pregnant wife, who was experiencing nausea and loss of appetite. He used simple ingredients like butter and cheese to make a flavorful and easily digestible dish.
Fettuccine Alfredo has gained popularity worldwide for several reasons:
1. Creamy and Rich Flavor: The combination of butter, Parmesan cheese, and cream creates a velvety and indulgent sauce that coats the pasta noodles. The richness of the sauce is often seen as a comfort food, providing a satisfying and luxurious dining experience.
2. Simplicity: Fettuccine Alfredo is relatively easy to prepare, requiring only a few ingredients. This simplicity makes it accessible to home cooks and allows for variations and personal touches to suit individual tastes.
3. Versatility: While traditionally served with fettuccine noodles, the Alfredo sauce can be paired with various pasta shapes, such as linguine or spaghetti. It also serves as a delicious base for adding other ingredients like grilled chicken, shrimp, or vegetables, offering endless possibilities for customization.
4. Classic Italian Cuisine: Fettuccine Alfredo is considered a classic Italian dish and is often associated with Italian-American cuisine. Its popularity has made it a staple on many Italian restaurant menus, both in Italy and abroad.
However, it's worth noting that Fettuccine Alfredo is a rich and calorie-dense dish due to its high-fat content. Therefore, it is often enjoyed in moderation as an indulgent treat rather than a regular dietary choice.

That said, I have friends with a gorgeous farmhouse in southern France and the traditional farm kitchen is tres petit! So small they built one outside for cooking bigger meals and for cooking in the warm months. It really surprised me, but they said that the traditional kitchens (70-150 years old) are little more than a sink, a stove and a tiny workspace because in winter they cooked over the fireplace in the living room and a lot of cooking and baking was done outside. Of course the very, very wealthy had servants and sometimes a separate cook house, but even well-to-do French apparently had tiny kitchens!

Here are a couple of tips: setting 8 minimum on pasta machine to finish with so they are even thinner. Also, you can emulsify using your cul de poule on top of the cooking pot, to create kind of a bain marie for the emulsion, they don't get cold and you get a creamier result. finally, adding the cheese in stages was what helped me get the perfect creamyness in the end.

I kept yelling “more cheese..” during the first try. The emulsion needed the cheese and pasta water to come together with the beurre but I’m glad you got it in the end. I like the mix of farina and semola as well. I’m not crazy about fresh pasta due to the lack of Al dente as you said, but for fettuccine Alfredo, I think it works. Well done Alex!

You are probably not going to do it this way but I get fantastic results by doing the following. I cook the pasta, reserve a couple of cups at the end, drain the pasta, add chunks of butter, some pasta water and parm, then IN THE POT, whip it vigorously with a wooden spoon. Season to taste and it works for me 100% of the time. Oh, and I use less water than what I normally would for the extra starch. Like a lot less water. I know its not as fancy as doing it table side but the results are perfect and I was a professional cook for 15 years in high end french restaurants if that means anything.

I'm quite proud of myself that I immediately spotted the "mistake" of the not enough starchy water in the first try. I knew that because of your carbonara series! It inspired me to learn the dish properly and is now one of my go to recipes when I cook for someone, because I'm proud of it. But during the experimentation phase I had the same problem with not enough creaminess, until I started adding extra starch! So, thanks for educating and inspiring me in the kitchen!

The pasta water the restaurant uses has been cooking pasta for many orders; it is very starch rich. You can enrich your water a few ways; first, sacrificial pasta cooked into the water first to be disposed of, second, as you did, add a slurry of flour directly to the water (any starch will work), third, you can use a more powerful burner and cook in a smaller amount of water which will make a denser starchy water.

Thyme and Black Pepper, excellent. Was begging you to add more starch to the emulsifier/cooking water and you did, this is about as close to perfection as we can hope to do!

A little bit of lemon zest would be a great addition to the original. Your second attempt looked like you got everything except too thick of noodles, but you admitted that already. Very well done. That is a very nice kitchen, especially having a french top stove is a great thing. When I built my kitchen, I made sure to have a french top stove and a proper wok burner. You really should consider having them in your new kitchen as well.

Well you make the rolling loop look so easy but the tip about reducing the pasta roller down to 8 was a master stroke. My family now love the much thinner fettuccine and it inspired my wife to find a home made tomato sauce that even our kids rated. A very definite win… Thanks for all the content..

The moment I finished this video I pulled out a pasta maker that I’ve had for 10 years and never used. Just happened to have half a block of parm that needed to be used. I’m sure I could’ve done better on the fettuccine, but the creaminess is out of this world. Thank you, Alex, for all that you do to inspire schlubs like me to cook things I’d never try otherwise. Still working on that omelet.

Fun to see you dining at Alfredo's -- and recreating the fettuccine. I first had Fettuccine Alfredo at Alfredo's back when I was a teenager -- still prepared all those years ago by Alfredo himself. So a few memories. Not sure, but it looked a bit like you might have gotten the golden fork and spoon when you dined there. But thanks for making the record straight -- no cream.

Alex, this is wonderful! The care, passion, and attention you put in your dishes is at the very least equal to that you put in the videos you make - which says something. Now, as an Italian, I'd like to add my bit: there is nothing wrong with adding thyme and pepper! They do match the rest of the ingredients quite well, in fact (although I might argue that fresh sage - salvia - would've been even better, but that's not the point). What most Italians tend to complain about (while often being, admittedly, quite caricatural and excessive) is other people completely distorting the nature of dishes, and namely adding (i) far too many ingredients and (ii) things that don't really mix together. Italian cuisine, above all, is about simplicity and balance, which we can afford due to the high quality of the produce. When I open pasta recipes from non-Italians and immediately see seven cloves of garlic and four spices mixed up, I immediately get alarmed. As your personal journey shows, the palate is like a muscle: it can be trained, and educated. So yes, everyone can (and should!) eat whatever they like, but there *are* things that more refined palates will generally dismiss, while appreciating taste that's alien to mouths less used to particular flavor. You wouldn't want eating lessons from someone who's only had junk food (or one type of food) their entire life, right? Here, your execution is borderline perfect, and your personal touch very well spot on and welcome. We love our traditions, sometimes too much, but it's the principles behind it we dearly hold on to. And you did great!

In my home we used dry pasta. We used extra parmigiano and used a metal bowl that was on the heat as a way to emulsify better.
