My only question is how big is 1 serving? We're making this tonight and I'm trying to pre-record it in my food journal

I make pretty much the same thing and use shirtaki noodles too (such lifesavers those things, I can't even tell the diff between them and real noodles!)
To make a single serv which is a perfect amt for Shirtaki Noodles:
2T butter
4T Heavy Whipping Cream
3T Parmesan
I like to use this with chicken, broccoli and a little bit of onion and garlic. YUM.
Great with Fettuccine Shirataki AND Angel Hair.

I love this Sauce! I used it on Shirtaki noodles and it turned out Lovely!. I did have to add a bit more cream to thin it out more after I added the parmasan cheese, but it really is yummy! Hats off to the Chef!!
