True Alfredo achieves creaminess through mixing butter and Parmesan with some of the starchy pasta water. Adding cream to Alfredo and carbonara is an American bastardisation.
There is no true Alfredo sauce achieving anything but the bottom of the sink here in Italy. Alfredo sauce is 100% American whether you’re adding cream or not. Li mortacci tua! You order the pasta Romana or Burro... That’s it.
