Critical Success Points

  • Boil the pasta just until al dente (do not overcook).
  • Pan-fry the sausage to develop flavor.
  • Bring the cream sauce to a full boil before combining with pasta.
  • Transfer pasta directly from boiling water to sauce for best texture.
  • Add cheeses off-heat to prevent curdling.

Safety Warnings

  • Use caution when boiling water and draining pasta to avoid burns.
  • Pan and cream sauce will be hot; handle with care.
  • Keep raw sausage separate from other ingredients until cooked.
