How to Make Garlic White Pizza Sauce

Note: The full instructions are provided in the recipe card below.

Heat the milk in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until simmering. Meanwhile, heat butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat until melted, then add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Add flour and whisk until smooth and thickened. Cook, whisking, but do not let darken; only about 2 minutes. Slowly add warm milk, whisking constantly.

Season with salt, garlic, pepper, and nutmeg, gently simmer, and cook until thickened, about 10 to 15 minutes. Let it cool completely before use or cover and chill until ready to use. (The sauce will thicken more as it cools but will still be creamy enough to spread over pizza dough easily).

How to Store & Re-Heat

To store: Garlic White Pizza Sauce, ensure it cools completely before transferring it to an airtight container or a jar with a tight-fitting lid. Sealing the container tightly is important to prevent air from entering, as exposure to air can cause the sauce to spoil more quickly. Place the container in the refrigerator, where it can be safely stored for up to 5 days. When ready to use the sauce again, remove it from the refrigerator and reheat it following the instructions below.

To reheat: Garlic White Pizza Sauce, gently warm it in a saucepan over low to medium heat. Stir the sauce occasionally to ensure even heating and prevent scorching or burning. If the sauce has thickened in the refrigerator, you can adjust the consistency by adding a small amount of milk while reheating.

Keep an eye on the sauce as it reheats, and once it is warmed through, it is ready to be used as a delicious topping for your pizza or any other dish you desire. Enjoy the flavors of the creamy garlic white sauce once again!

Make-Ahead

Transfer the sauce to an airtight container, seal it tightly, and store it in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. When you're ready to use it, gently reheat the sauce in a saucepan over low to medium heat until it reaches a spreadable consistency. Having the sauce pre-made and on hand allows you to save time and effortlessly add its creamy, flavorful goodness to your pizzas whenever you desire.
