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.

Notes

1/2 - 1 cup of pasta cooking water, milk or broth can be used to loosen up the sauce to the desired consistency.
