Cooking instruction summary:

1 Bring a large pot of salty water to a boil and drop in your fettuccine. 2a Plain version Melt the butter in a large sauté pan set over low heat. Once the butter has melted, turn the heat off.2b Creamy version Melt the butter in a large sauté pan set over low heat. Add the cream to the butter as it melts. Stir often to combine the two, do not turn off the heat, but keep the heat at its lowest setting while the pasta cooks.3 When the fettuccine is al dente (cooked, but still a little firm) lift it out of the pot with tongs and move the pasta to the sauté pan.
