Chef's Notes
True al burro relies entirely on starch, butter, and cheese. There is not a single drop of heavy cream allowed in this kitchen, so respect the technique!
Pro Tip
Always grate your own Parmigiano-Reggiano from a block. Pre-shredded cheese contains anti-caking agents that will turn your velvety sauce into a clumpy tragedy.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Using boiling water straight from the tap instead of heavily salted, starchy pasta water, resulting in a greasy, flavorless puddle at the bottom of your bowl.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
I told the King that this recipe only has three ingredients, and he tried to make a royal decree to tax the pasta water separately.
The Culinary Science
The magic of this sauce is an emulsion, where the starches from the pasta water bond the fat from the butter and cheese into a smooth, homogeneous liquid.
