Fettuccine
Template:Short description Template:Use dmy dates Template:Infobox food
FettuccineTemplate:EfnTemplate:Efn is a type of pasta popular in Roman cuisine. It is descended from the extremely thin {{#invoke:Lang|lang}} of the Renaissance,<ref>Template:Cite book</ref> but is a flat, thick pasta traditionally made of egg and flour (usually one egg for every Template:Convert of flour). At about Template:Convert, it is wider and thicker than, but similar to, the tagliatelle typical of Bologna,<ref name=":11">Template:Cite book</ref>Template:Sfn which are more common elsewhere in Italy and is often used as a synonym. Spinach fettuccine is made from spinach, flour and eggs.
The terms {{#invoke:Lang|lang}} and {{#invoke:Lang|lang}} are often used as synonyms for this pasta, but the former term is more precisely used for wider (about Template:Convert) and the latter for narrower (about Template:Convert) forms of the same pasta.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
Fettuccine is often classically eaten with {{#invoke:Lang|lang}} ('beef ragù') or {{#invoke:Lang|lang}} ('chicken ragù').Template:Sfn A famous dish made with fettuccine is fettuccine Alfredo, a simple dish of pasta, Parmesan cheese and butter which was created and named at a restaurant in Rome in the early 20th century as a tableside "performance".<ref>Template:Cite book</ref> It is popular in the United States, where it is made with cream, although almost unknown in Italy.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>Template:Sfn
Fettuccine is traditionally made fresh (either at home or commercially), but dried fettuccine can also be bought in stores.
