Notes

• Keeping Creaminess and Freshness in Balance: It’s important to get the right balance between freshness and creaminess. To avoid the cream from curdling while making the Cajun cream sauce, add it to the pan gradually. The exquisite creaminess that freshly grated Parmesan cheese offers is significantly superior to pre-packaged substitutes. Just before serving, stir in finely chopped scallions or parsley to add freshness and give the food a pop of color and herbaceous flavor.
• Texture of Pasta Refinement: Pay close attention to the pasta-making process. Cook it just till it’s al dente to maintain a hint of stiffness that goes well with the creamy sauce. Add a little olive oil while the water is boiling to prevent sticking. Do not overcook the pasta because it will continue to cook when mixed with the sauce. After draining, quickly rinse it with cold water to stop the cooking process and preserve the desired texture.
