OK, OK, I'm sorry I started this year's Alfredo thread.

On the other hand, it's been one of the most consistently sparkling and
thought-provoking Alfredo threads in years. Keep it going.

Not really after a while it gets really old. I suppose evil garbage restaurants
like Olive Garden and crap like "Chicken Scampi" perpetuate mis-information to
the great unwashed.

Duh, of course Alfredo is a sauce. Sheesh, I saw a jar of it at the
supermarket today.

Really Felice, you should know better! ;-)

Yeah, I did enjoy Bob Myer's contribution:

"Everyone in earshot gasps at this horrific culinary faux pas, and
then spends the next thirty minutes haranguing the poor SOB and
describing in painful and excruciating detail exactly what items do
and do not qualify for that label."

Heh...

Aww, I really liked their "Chicken Scampi", and I shower every
day! Seriously though, I agree with you, Dimitri, about the
mis-information spread by these kinds of outfits. I wonder if
they still sell "Alfredo" sauce for dipping breadsticks? Tasty,
but poorly named...

Funny, I thought it was Crash who started it after Damsel told him there's
no such thing!

Jill

Funny thing is that so did I??!!

Crash

"Crash" answered my (spurious) claim to have started this year's Alfredo
thread:

> Funny thing is that so did I??!!

I stand corrected, Crash. You DID start it by asking what AF sauce was, and
I said it didn't exist. Shows you I pay more attention to my answers than
others' questions. Shall I FedEx some Fettuccine Alfredo to you as an
apology?

Not that anyone in his right mind would want to take credit for starting
this thread ...

Not to worry, Felice... this thread starts up at least once a year (as you
noted) along with "scampi" threads. Now it seems no one has any idea how to
cook corn on the cob! Must be some sort of newfangled vegetable

Crash and I aren't in our right minds, so that's about right.

One thing about Alfredo that makes me ROTFL is that at first I
read the thread with curiosity, and then I realized I ate
something very very similar for years: pasta burro e parmigiano
(butter and parmigiano pasta).
Just cook the pasta, drain it quickly to maintain some of the
cooking water with it and bring it back into the pan (no more
fire under), then add butter, some ground pepper and grated
parmigiano reggiano, stir until butter is melted and serve. Only
difference is that we didn't add whipping cream, since the
quick-draining technique left enough moisture to keep the right
texture.

I ate "pasta burro e parmigiano" because it become cold in a moment. And
when it cools the butter become hard. "Na vera shkifezz" ))

Methinks the first "ate" you forgot the "h", is it?
Because "ate" is the past of "eat" (mangiare) while "hate" is the
present of "hate" (odiare)
