Parmaghetti.

Boil spaghetti, toss with a bunch of melted butter, and grate on so much parm that the pasta is almost dry.

That's basically what pasta alfredo is.

Yeah, we know what alfredo is, that's why we said it's not parmaghetti. You may notice this key sentence in the wikipedia article. "As the cheese melts, it emulsifies the liquids to form a smooth and rich coating on the pasta."

Parmaghetti is in no manner about making a proper pasta. You don't finish cooking it in the butter/parm with pasta water as needed to make the sauce. The texture is totally different. You coat the pasta with butter just so that more non-melted cheese can stick to it.

Allow me to apoligize and amend my statement. Its badfredo.
