cook's notes
The Original Fettuccine Alfredo was created in 1914 by Alfredo Di Lelio, concocted to tempt the palate of his pregnant wife who had lost her appetite. Until now, the Original Fettuccine Alfredo has been a secret recipe, passed on from generation to generation. [CDKitchen Note: supposedly]

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.

I used half the butter called for and added cream to make it more of a sauce. Topped with some grilled shrimp. Was good and simple. Might try a different version next time.

This is awesome! I have been trying to find the recipe for Alfredo's that used to be at Epcot and this is it! It tastes just like I remembered it at Epcot and very easy too!
