Alfredo di Lelio's fear for his pregnant wife's lack of appetite prompted him to put his skills to use. The life of their first son was dependent on it... His dish of noodles, cheese, and butter not only inspired her to eat but she also inspired him to put it on the menu.'s Since its inception, the century-old dish has been popular pasta lovers around the world ever since..
Not only that, but also fettuccine alfredo enthusiasts try the dish in a variety of ways. Add shrimp, mushrooms, or spinach to the dish. The dish also pairs well with other vegetables and proteins, as well. Cut the richness with a white wine and finish with a fruit dessert.
