Five Minute Homemade Alfredo Sauce With Milk Food

CREAMY GARLIC ALFREDO SAUCE IN 15 MINUTES

Creamy Garlic Alfredo Sauce in 15 Minutes image

We created this sauce with milk because most families have milk in the fridge. If you want to use heavy cream, then just eliminate the flour and replace the milk with heavy cream. Makes about 2 1/2 cups of sauce.

Ingredients

1/4 cup butter ((1/2 stick))
4 cloves garlic (, minced (or 2 teaspoons garlic powder))
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
1/4 teaspoon dried herbs ((basil, oregano, thyme, etc.))
1/2 teaspoon dried mustard powder
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon salt (, or to taste)
1/2 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper

Steps:

Heat a sauce pan on medium-high heat. Melt butter, then add garlic and cook translucent and fragrant (about 1 minute).
Whisk in flour and continue whisking to remove large clumps.
Slowly whisk in the milk. Whisking often to make sure flour lumps are smooth, bring sauce to a low boil. Then reduce heat to low.
Add dried herbs, mustard powder, parmesan, salt and pepper. Continue whisking until sauce is smooth and begins to thicken.
Serve the sauce with your favorite pasta. If you're saving the sauce for later, allow the sauce to completely cool.
Pour the sauce into mason jars or a container. Keep in fridge and use within 5 days.

HOMEMADE ALFREDO SAUCE

Homemade Alfredo Sauce image

When I found out I had celiac disease and couldn't have fettuccine Alfredo, I was determined to figure out a way to re-create it. I mix this homemade alfredo sauce with gluten-free multigrain pasta, but you can use any style of pasta. -Jackie Charlesworth Stiff, Frederick, Colorado
