A delightful twist on a classic pasta dish, combining creamy textures with the rich flavor of Parmesan.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the bow tie pasta until al dente, following the package instructions.
Ensure the water is well-salted for flavorful pasta.
Drain the pasta and set it aside.
Reserve a cup of pasta water to adjust the sauce consistency later if needed.
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy cream, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper.
Stir constantly to prevent the cheese from clumping.
Cook the sauce, stirring, until it thickens slightly.
Do not let the sauce boil to maintain a smooth texture.
Toss the cooked pasta with the sauce until evenly coated.
Add a splash of reserved pasta water if the sauce is too thick.
Transfer the pasta to a serving bowl and garnish with fresh parsley.
Chop the parsley finely for an elegant presentation.
Serve the pasta warm and enjoy your creamy Parmesan bow tie pasta.
Pair with a side salad or garlic bread for a complete meal.
