MASTER RECIPE: PARMESAN CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• 1. PREP/PREPARE
• 2. Gather your ingredients.
• 3. Add the butter to a saucepan over medium heat.
• 4. If you are not using clarified butter, wait until the foaming subsides.
• 5. Add the flour.
• 6. Whisk until completely incorporated, about 1 quick minute.
• 7. Chef's Note: Adding fat and flour together creates a roux. There are different stages of a roux; the longer your cook it, the browner it gets, and the nuttier it tastes. We want a light roux... no browning. So, 1 minute on the heat is about all you want.
• 8. Slowly whisk in the chicken stock.
• 9. Chef's Tip: Do not use hot chicken stock, or you will get lumps in your sauce.
• 10. Continue to whisk until completely smooth.
• 11. Add the cream.
• 12. Stir to incorporate, about 1 minute.
• 13. Chef's Note: At this point, season with salt and pepper.
• 14. Chef's Note: We are using white pepper, because we don't want to see little black flakes in the sauce. In addition, white pepper is milder than black pepper, so adjust your seasoning accordingly.
• 15. Continue to cook and stir for an additional 2 minutes.
• 16. Add the Parmesan
• 17. Stir until incorporated, about 1 minute.
• 18. Chef's Note: If the sauce is too thick, add more cream or chicken stock, one tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is achieved.
• 19. Chef's Tip: If you are making this sauce ahead of time, put a piece of wax paper or plastic wrap over the sauce while it cools to prevent a skin from forming.
• 20. VARIATIONS ON A THEME
• 21. FOR FISH AND CHICKEN: Add about 1/2 teaspoon of dried thyme and oregano and 1 or 2 baked/mined cloves of garlic.
• 22. A VEGGIE DIP: Use the same variations for fish and chicken, but melt about 2 ounces of cream cheese into the sauce.
• 23. PASTA: Use the master recipe without variations over most pasta.
• 24. PASTA VARIATION: Skin, seed, and chop one large plum tomato add a tablespoon of chopped basil, and serve over pasta.
• 25. Chef's Note: When I use garlic in a sauce, I like to bake the garlic first. Place the garlic cloves on a piece of parchment paper and drizzle with a bit of olive oil. Pull the ends of the parchment paper together and twist together, like a beggar's pouch. Bake for about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven, and allow it to cool. Add a few pinches of salt, and then mash into a paste with the flat side of your kitchen knife.
• 26. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
