FAQ

What can I use instead of heavy cream for alfredo sauce?

The two best substitutes for heavy cream in alfredo sauce are: Milk + Flour + Butter: Whisk together 1 cup of whole milk (make sure it’s COLD), 2 tablespoons of flour, and 2-3 tablespoons of melted butter (cooled). Whisk until smooth. Once you heat this mixture it will begin to thicken like heavy cream.

What is traditional alfredo sauce made of?

Usually the traditional, authentic Italian alfredo sauce is made with just Parmesan cheese, butter, pasta water and salt.

What are the ingredients to Alfredo?

The key ingredient in alfredo sauce is cheese—generally Parmigiano-Reggiano—and lots of it. To thicken alfredo sauce, you can add more cheese than the amount that is called for in a recipe until you achieve the consistency that you want.
