Day 278: I don't typically link pictures that I didn't take myself, but this is a good shot of "Both Sides of Sacramento". I'd offer accredidation, but I don't know who exactly to credit. It's an EXCELLENT shot of Sacramento's diverse nature.
I cooked dinner for the young lady, and thought I might share the recipe for the sauce.
Quick Alfredo sauce:
Three Cloves of garlic, minced fine
1 tbsp butter
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
7 tsp butter
1 cup shaved parmesan cheese
1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
2 cups heavy whipping cream
Put 1 tbsp butter and 1 tbsp olive oil in a sauce pan. Melt butter over medium heat.
Add garlic, and cook until garlic starts to brown.
Add cream, and slowly add parmesan and mozzarella cheese, stirring continuously.
Add remainder of butter.
Cook until all butter is melted, over medium-low heat. Cook pasta, and, instead of pouring the pasta on a plate where it will get all cold and terrible, throw drained warm pasta into the sauce. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add diced cooked chicken if desired (we desired).
EAT IN FACE.
All in, this takes about 10 minutes, assuming that the pasta water is already boiling.
And it's AWESOME.
Tomorrow, ADVENTURE!! :)
