Instructions
- All ingredients ready? Let's begin!
- First, you're going to make a roux. Place a medium saucepan on the stove. Add the butter and turn the heat to medium heat. Begin to melt the butter, taking care not to brown it.
- Add the garlic and stir.
- Once the butter is completely melted, add the flour. Use a whisk to mix together the flour and butter. Whisk together until a paste is formed.
- Keep stirring so that the flour begins to cook, but not burn. You’ll be able to tell that the roux is done cooking when it starts to develop a nutty flavor.
- Gradually pour in the milk, whisking as you pour it in.
- Bring the milk mixture to a simmer.
- While the milk mixture is simmering, gently add in the grated parmesan. Stir everything together with the whisk.
- Season with salt, black pepper, and nutmeg.
- Use the sauce immediately for best results.
