Ingredients

1 c. heavy cream
1/2 c. fresh grated Parmesan cheese
dash of fresh grated nutmeg
3 Tbsp. butter
dash of fresh coarse ground pepper
1 lb. fettucine (wide egg noodles)

Preparation

Choose
a
pan
that
can accommodate all of the cooked fettucine
and the sauce.
Put 1/2 cup cream and the butter in the pan and simmer until the butter is melted.
Turn off heat. Cook fettucine
in
boiling
water, being very careful not to overcook. The
noodles

Serve immediately with additional grated cheese on the side.
