This creamy Parmesan pizza sauce makes a perfect base for your favorite ingredients. Put it on a veggie pie, or try it in a calzone with chicken, bacon and spinach.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 2½ cups milk
- 1 tablespoon chopped oregano
- 1 bay leaf
- ¾ cup grated Parmesan
- Salt and white pepper, to taste
Preparation
Melt butter in a small sauce pot. Add the garlic and cook until the butter just begins to foam, making sure not to let the garlic brown. Add the flour and mix to make a roux.
Add the milk ¼ at time, stirring to incorporate completely before adding more. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly. Add the oregano and bay leaf. Let simmer for 5 minutes.
Turn off the heat and whisk in the Parmesan until fully melted. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
