Steps:
- Bring 4 quarts water to a boil in a large pot for cooking the pasta.
- Place the walnuts in a medium skillet over medium heat; toast, shaking the pan occasionally to turn the nuts, until fragrant, about 5 minutes; transfer to a plate.
- Melt the butter in the skillet; add the nuts and basil and cook just until heated through.
- Place the mascarpone in a bowl large enough to hold the fettuccine when cooked.
- Stir in the walnut mixture and add salt and pepper to taste.
- When the water come to a boil, add salt to taste and the fettuccine.
- Cook until al dente and then drain, reserving 1/4 cup of the cooking liquid.
- Toss the fettuccine, still dripping with cooking water, with the walnut sauce and mix well.
- Add as much reserved cooking liquid as needed to thin the sauce.
- Divide among individual bowls and serve immediately.
