RECIPE TIPS

1. If you want an even creamier recipe, add grated Parmesan cheese or grated mozzarella cheese to the sauce (add the cheese at the same time you add the sauce).

2. If you have any leftovers or want to save the recipe for another day, store the pasta in the refrigerator in an airtight container (to prevent the growth of microorganisms). You can store the pasta in the refrigerator for up to 2 to 3 days.
