Alfredo Pizza Sauce (White Sauce)
Description
The Alfredo Pizza Sauce combines melted butter with pressed garlic sautéed until fragrant. Flour is toasted into the fat to form a roux, which is then gradually blended with whole milk while whisking to prevent lumps. The mixture thickens over gentle heat, achieving a velvety consistency. Parmesan cheese is stirred in at the end until melted, enriching the sauce with its nutty, salty flavor.
The final sauce has a creamy texture and mellow garlic taste that works well as an alternative to traditional tomato bases on pizza. It can be spread directly on the dough before adding toppings such as chicken, spinach, or mushrooms for a white pizza variation.
Ingredients
- 3 tbsp butter unsalted
- 3 garlic pressed, cloves
- 2 tbsp flour all purpose
- 1 1/2 cups milk whole
- 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese grated
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté until fragrant.
- Sprinkle in the flour and toast for about a minute.
- Pour in the milk and whisk constantly, breaking up any clumps of flour. Cook on medium-low until the mixture begins to thicken.
- Stir in the Parmesan cheese until it melts and the sauce is creamy. Remove from heat.
- Spread on your pizza and enjoy!
