Ingredients for Buttered Noodles
If you can believe it, you only need four ingredients to cook this dish:
- Noodles: Though fettuccine noodles are called for in this dish, you can substitute any other type of noodle, from penne to spaghetti, if you prefer.
- Salt and Pepper: Add salt and freshly ground black pepper to this simple buttered noodles dish to finish it off.
- Butter: Both salted and unsalted butter are acceptable. You might wish to choose unsalted as you’ll be adding more salt at the end (of course, this depends on your taste).
- Parmesan: The addition of grated Parmesan cheese elevates this recipe. Cheese isn’t strictly necessary for buttered noodles, so you can omit it if you choose.
