Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves of fresh garlic finely minced
  • 2 teaspoons of Italian seasoning blend
  • 4 tablespoons of all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups of vegetable broth
  • 3/4 cup of heavy cream
  • 8 ounces of freshly shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon of finely chopped fresh parsley
  • Kosher salt to taste
  • Freshly cracked black pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. In a large sauté pan, melt the butter over medium-low heat.
  2. Add the minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and a pinch of salt and black pepper. Stir and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Sprinkle in the flour and whisk continuously until fully incorporated, then cook for an additional minute to remove the raw flour taste.
  4. Gradually pour in the vegetable broth, whisking constantly to avoid any lumps from forming.
  5. Let the mixture simmer gently for about 2 minutes, allowing it to begin thickening.
  6. Add the heavy cream, then stir in the Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley, whisking until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
  7. Continue to cook over low heat, stirring regularly, until the sauce reaches your desired thickness.
  8. Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning with more salt and freshly cracked black pepper as needed.

Notes

This sauce relies on fresh ingredients and straightforward cooking techniques.
The secret to success is prepping all your components ahead of time and seasoning little by little.
Taking your time and stirring consistently are what truly elevate the final result.
