Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

In a large saute pan or sauce pan, melt the butter over medium heat until it stops foaming.
Add the garlic and cook for 30-60 seconds, while whisking, until the garlic becomes fragrant.
Sprinkle the flour evenly over the butter and garlic and whisk to combine. Cook for 1 minute, while whisking, until the flour is absorbed.
Slowly whisk in the half and half until it is incorporated. Let the sauce simmer, while whisking for 1-2 minutes until it starts to thicken.
Remove from the heat and whisk in the parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
Use immediately or cool for use later.
