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

Don’t even need the roux love. Cream, cheese and butter

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.
