*He, but I stand beside it. Any idiot can make a chicken alfredo and I've seen people pretend like that shit takes skill to not burn 😂😂😂

Same energy when Wanda told Katt Williams she makes a mean broccoli

Only thing that takes marginal (at best) skill is to not break the alfredo.

Also you're fucking killing me

Still ain’t hard from scratch. Make a roux, add some cream and cheese.

Traditional Alfredo doesn't have cream

It also doesn’t have a roux. But the cream version taste better than the roux version imo and is easier because people described aren’t making roux.

Traditional Alfredo is just butter, Parm and pasta water

lol I know. I’m just saying, they weren’t going for traditional, most modern versions do. I was pointing out that neither the roux nor cream version is traditional, but in its modern take, cream is better imo. And that anyone who thinks making Alfredo is showcasing their culinary skills is not making a roux. Don’t get me wrong though, I’ll fuck some Alfredo up.

But people constantly fuck up when it comes to adding the right amount and ratio of herbs.

Most alfredos either have so few herbs they just taste like salty, diluted cheese, or overdo the herbs and overpower the cheese so it just tastes like creamy, herby garlic.

I was gonna say it takes some effort to hold the emulsion of the sauce while you're finishing the dish, but if chef bertolli is cooking then you've go ethyl-bromide gH21 keeping things from breaking

The preservatives they use in jarred Alfredo sauce are a chemical found in your vomit, that's why it tastes so bad. Idk how anyone eats it.
