Tried a lot of cream sauces that didn’t “hold” on the pasta. Lets face it, Alfredo is a fatty sauce. In all of my past versions, the pasta absorbed the sauce after 5 minutes. Here is the emulsified, higher fat version that uses mayo as the base. Even angel hair pasta, pictured, which normally absorbs sauce, stayed beautifully. Use this sauce as the base to add vegetables and spices and make pasta primavera or tomato cream sauce, etc.
