Well they are actually different things that taste the same, however, these were peeled so you couldn't really tell. They were pretty small so most likely shrimp but I just went with what the sign told me. [Reply]

I use dry rather than fresh because it is almost foolproof. A bad alfredo is one with the cheese stuck to the bottom of the pan and not incorporated into the cream. Dry I have never seen that happen.
Garlic I like to use because I think it adds so much more to the sauce.
That's why you temper it first. Do you know what that means?
With a ladle, gradually add about 1 cup of the hot mixture into egg yolks, mixture constantly. Then, add egg yolk mixture to mixture in pan and continue cooking according to the recipe.
That's how I usually do it but on alfredo sauce, I let sauce in pan cool down a bit first too. I bring it back up a bit if I need too. I add the egg yolk near at the end of making the sauce too. [Reply]
