Ingredients
- 3 cups whole milk
- ½ stick unsalted butter
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour , sifted
- ¼ teaspoon granulated garlic
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt , to taste
- 4 large fresh garlic , thinly sliced
- ¼ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
- 11/2 teaspoons Ground Black Pepper
Instructions
- 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 garlic, salt, pepper, and nutmeg and bring to a gentle simmer and cook until thickened, about 10 to 15 minutes. Let cool completely before use or cover and chill and until ready to use.

Notes
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!
