Notes
- If you can't find white pepper, regular pepper will work just fine!
- Add smoked or regular paprika for a hint of flavor and vibrant color to your dish. You can also add chili flakes for a bit of heat.
- Feel free to substitute half and half cream for heavy cream, however, keep in mind your sauce won't be as creamy.
- Let leftovers cool completely, then transfer to an airtight container and store in the fridge for 3-5 days.
- Frozen pasta dishes will last for 2 – 3 months, just be sure to allow to thaw fully in the fridge before reheating.
