White cream sauce for pizza

A basic white cream sauce for pizza. Use this white cream sauce to top pizza or pasta. This is a rich, heavy and delicious cream sauce, so very little is needed in order to get a great flavor.

Ingredients:

• 1 tablespoon butter
• 3 tablespoons flour
• 1 1/4 cup cup milk
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning (or a blend of basil and oregano)
• dash salt and pepper, to taste
• 1/3 cup fresh Parmesan cheese, grated

Preparation:

Melt butter in a medium saucepan and add in flour, stirring until thick and pasty.

Slowly add milk, whisking together constantly to avoid lumps. Add garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper and simmer for 3-4 minutes, or until thickened.

Stir in grated Parmesan cheese until welted. Sauce will thicken further as it cools, so add in a bit more milk if needed.

This recipe makes more than enough white sauce for one large pizza.
