Ok, I'm hesitant to respond... But if you seriously want a good alfredo sauce, then I'll share my personal recipe... The key to any good dish is fresh ingredients and not too much bullshit, so just follow the recipe.
Ingredients: 2 cloves finely minced garlic 3/4 cup shredded Asiago cheese 1/4 cup shredded Parmigiano 1 pint heavy cream (whipping cream - as in liquid...) 1 Tbsp. olive oil (man up and get the good shit) 1 Tbsp. lemon juice (man up and buy a whole lemon - throw a slice on the plate to enhance color and show the ladies you can handle the fruit) 1 shot Calvados (man up and get the good shit - or wuss out and just use Cognac) 1/2 tsp. sweet paprika (man up and get the Spanish "pimenton de la vera" - the Hungarian shit will leave it bitter) pinch of salt (man up and get the French sea salt - trust me) freshly ground black pepper - 5 or 6 grinds
In a medium sized frying pan (11-13 inches, like me), heat olive oil over medium high heat until smoking, then add garlic. When garlic is close to being golden brown, add Calvados. Flambee and reduce. Add lemon juice, reduce. Add cream and turn heat to high. When cream begins to thoroughly bubble (like boiling water), add Asiago and shake pan continuously while cheese incorporates. Add salt, pepper, and paprika. When sauce thickens to desired consistency, add Parmigiano, turn off heat, and stir before serving over the dish of your fuckin' choice. Enjoy the shit out of the mofo. Cheers.
