Chef's Kitchen: King Crab Garlic Alfredo Pasta By Chef Melly - Bay News 9

jumi.indah.link

TAMPA, Fla. — Chef Melly Gardner is the third generation in her Three Generations Food Truck business.

Her truck is named in honor of her grandmother who helped her kick off her chef career and a mother who works with her now.

Chef Melly, working in her new test kitchen in Tampa, displayed some Alfredo cooking tips.

For instance, Chef Melly says using salted butter adds to the flavor.

Also, when you see the garlic starting to brown in your pan, you know it’s time to add your heavy cream.

Also, she takes the recipe off the fire to fold in the Parmesan cheese.

She says it thickens better that way.

And Chef Melly said the future holds plenty, including more to cook, newly purchased food trucks and plans to help others start a business.

Until then, enjoy this recipe.
