Notes
Helpful Recipe Tips
- Use fresh parmesan it makes a world of a difference. It thickens the sauce better, more flavorful and melts as it should because it's free of a non-caking agent.
- If using Palmini noodles don't skip the step of adding into a milk based product and letting it soak for a while.
- If using any water based noodles like zucchini do not heat them up in your sauce. The water will leak into your sauce and destroy it. Heat the zoodles in a separate pan or bowl. Then add them into your sauce. Note, there may still be a presence of water from the noodles but you can control it better.
