Submitted by Marly Deschauer

"The best, richest Alfredo sauce that we have ever tasted. If possible please use the REAL Parmigiano Reggiano, but if you can not, then the grated parmesan that you get from your deli will do fine!"

One person claimed that there were no directions as to when to add the heavy cream and white wine, but those steps are clearly outlined in #'s 5 & 9, if you bother to look. This is a great Alfredo recipe, and I will be using it again:)

This was awesome! It's restaurant quality and easy to put together, too. Loved it! Thanks, Marly! Made for PAC fall 2009

Heavy whipping cream and white wine are listed in the ingredients but there is no mention of when to add these items. Therefore, I won't attempt this dish.
