Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions for White Pizza Sauce
  1. Begin by placing a small saucepan over medium heat. Add unsalted butter and allow it to melt gently, stirring occasionally for 1-2 minutes.
  2. Once the butter has melted, quickly add all-purpose flour to the pan. Stir continuously for 1-2 minutes to form a roux.
  3. Gradually pour in milk while whisking steadily. Continue mixing for another 2-3 minutes as the sauce thickens.
  4. Stir in sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, and pressed garlic. Mix thoroughly for about 1 minute.
  5. Add the shredded parmesan cheese and whisk until completely melted, about another minute.
  6. Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the White Pizza Sauce to cool slightly before using.
  7. If storing, transfer to a covered container and let cool to room temperature before sealing.
