5 Ingredient Creamy Garlic Sauce Recipe for 4 Servings

Instructions:

1. Melt the butter. Place a heavy bottomed skillet over medium low heat and melt the 4 tbsp unsalted butter until it begins foaming but before it browns. Note: This low temperature prevents the milk solids in the butter from burning.
2. Sauté the aromatics. Add the 6 cloves of minced garlic to the butter. Cook for 1–2 minutes until fragrant and translucent. Ensure you stir constantly; garlic turns bitter the second it browns.
3. Introduce the cream. Pour in the 1.5 cups heavy whipping cream slowly, whisking as you pour to combine it with the garlic butter.
4. Simmer and reduce. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Cook for 3-5 minutes until the sauce thickens and coat the back of a spoon. This is the nappe stage where excess water has evaporated.
5. Remove from heat. Slide the skillet off the burner. This enters the emulsification window where the temperature is high enough to melt cheese but low enough to prevent it from seizing.
6. Whisk in cheese. Gradually add the 1 cup of freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano and 0.5 tsp fine sea salt. Whisk vigorously until the texture is silk smooth and glossy.
7. Taste and adjust. Dip a clean spoon in. If it needs more punch, a tiny pinch more salt can be added now.
8. Serve immediately. Pour the sauce over your desired base while it is still warm and fluid.
