The Real Olive Garden Alfredo Sauce image

This recipe was retrieved from Olive Garden's website. After browsing hundreds of recipes for that "one" Alfredo sauce, I found the ONE! I have never liked any other Alfredo sauce other then Olive Garden's - I made this recipe last night with angel hair pasta & roasted chicken

Place back on very low heat and continually stir until simmering.
Take sauce off heat so it thickens. (This will increase temperature of egg yolks, known as tempering).

REAL ALFREDO SAUCE

Don't know where I originally got this, but this is the best alfredo sauce I have ever had outside of a restaurant. I have made it with or without the cream cheese, and with all Parmesan, and it still turns out great. The nutmeg is essential!
