Fettuccine Alfredo with a creamy garlic sauce is a delightful twist on the classic Italian dish. The history of this indulgent pasta dates back to early 20th century Rome, where chef Alfredo di Lelio created the original Fettuccine Alfredo. The dish gained international fame when Hollywood stars fell in love with it at his restaurant, Alfredo alla Scrofa. Today, the best versions of this dish can be found in authentic Italian trattorias, where chefs use fresh fettuccine and a rich, creamy garlic sauce made with butter, heavy cream, and Parmesan cheese. The key to a perfect fettuccine Alfredo with creamy garlic sauce lies in the quality of the ingredients and the balance of flavors.
