Expert Tips for Success

Prevent Curdling: Never add the cream at the beginning. The low and slow heat can cause it to separate. Our end of recipe method is foolproof.

Freshly Grated parmesan is key: Pre shredded cheese has chemicals that keep it from clumping together, which might make your sauce gritty. Taking two minutes to grate a block of parmesan makes a world of difference in text and flavor.

Don't Skip the rest: If your sauce looks a little thin right after the pasta is cooked, don't worry! 10-15 minute rest period allows the starch from the pasta to thicken the sauce perfectly.

Add Veggies : For a nutrition boost, stir in two cups of fresh spinach or 1 cup of thawed frozen pea during the last 10 minutes of cooking.

Storage & Reheating

Refrigerator: Store in an airtight container for a long as three days.

Reheating: Put it back on the burner over the low heat or in the microwave for at least 30 seconds at a time, stirring between each time. Add a little of milk ot broth to loosen the sauce back to a creamy consistency.
