Fettuccine, fame & family: the story of Alfredo alla Scrofa

from The Italy Now Podcast

We sit down with Mario Mozzetti at Alfredo alla Scrofa in Rome, where fettuccine Alfredo was born and where the art of mantecatura has been passed down through three generations. The third-generation owner of Alfredo alla Scrofa tells us how this iconic dish conquered the world, from Hollywood legends to Masterchef Turkey, and why the secret is still in the hands. It's a love letter to Roman tradition, family pride and the perfect plate of pasta. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
