One thing that might help with the clumping of the egg yolks - and I'm surprised that the original recipe doesn't mention it - would be to temper the eggs by mixing a measure of the hot sauce to the beaten eggs before putting them into the saucepan. It's a fairly common technique with Hollandaise and other sauces.

I followed this recipe but found that the alfredo came out clumpy. I asked a friend who said that the temperature was too hot for the eggs. So a word of caution regarding adding the eggs might want to first melt the cheese into the sauce and then slowly mix in the egg yolks off the heat.:-)
Yummo!! but very rich. If you want a little something extra added some garlic and Dijon Mustard. If you are in a rush getting home from work try adding some corn flour for thickening instead of letting it simmer to reduce.
I wrote a review for this recipe but it has disappeared. I shall say that the egg yolks were unappetizing and most unappealing and we will never make this recipe again. Thank you.
This sauce is excellent. I added 2 tbsp of butter and 1 tsp of garlic powder for an add richness.
VERY YUMMY! everyone loved this dish....even my grandma who "is'ny a pasta person". i added garlic italian seasoning & some lemon pepper for flavor. again VERY YUMMY!:)
We tried it because we only had these ingredients on hand and it was a mistake. The sauce turned chunky after a few minutes in the noodles.
Very tasty. I added some garlic and some white wine as well. Usually I use a flour mixture to thicken my alfredo but the eggs worked well. Very yummy:)
My boyfriend and I agree that this recipe isn't too great. It turned out WAY too thick to the point of being chunky and the cheese was beyond overpowering. I wouldn't reccommend it unless someone can tweak it.
