Fettuccine With Parsley Butter in Pressure Cooker

KateL's Note:

A personal favorite to save the air conditioning in hot weather. I love my Cook's Essentials 6-quart electric pressure cooker! From Toula Patsalis's "The Pressure Cooker Cookbook". Pasta can be cooked in the pressure cooker just until tender to the bite if cooking times are followed correctly. Short egg noodles may be substituted in this delicate cream dish.

Great way to keep the kitchen cooler but still get some yummy pasta. I made this as a side for Flounder Francaise or Chicken Francaise along with green beans and garlic bread for a wonderful dinner. I didn't have the summer savory, so just made it without. The whole family enjoyed the pasta!! Thanks so much for sharing the recipe. Made for Newest Tag Game.
