Ingredients
- 3 Tablespoons unsalted butter
- 6 cloves garlic minced
- 1 Tablespoon Italian seasoning
- kosher salt to taste
- freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Pinch red pepper flakes
- 3 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups vegetable stock room temperature or lukewarm
- 1 cup half and half room temperature or lukewarm
- 6 ounces Parmesan Cheese grated or finely shredded
Instructions
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and Italian seasoning, along with salt, pepper, and a pinch of red pepper flakes, if using. Whisk frequently for 1 minute until fragrant, lowering heat if needed, to keep the garlic from burning.
- Whisk in flour and cook for 1 minute. Slowly whisk in vegetable stock until fully incorporated. Bring to a simmer and cook, whisking somewhat frequently, for 2-3 minutes until it thickens. The sauce should coat the back of a spoon.
- Reduce heat and whisk in cream until combined, then whisk in parmesan cheese in batches until fully incorporated and melted. Taste test and add salt if needed.
- Use immediately or transfer to a jar for storage. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days.
