Base Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Melt the Butter

    In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Make sure it does not brown.

  2. 2

    Add Garlic

    Once the butter is melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

  3. 3

    Incorporate the Cream

    Slowly pour in the heavy cream, stirring continuously. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese and Seasonings

    Gradually whisk in the freshly grated Parmesan cheese until fully melted and combined. Then, add salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Continue to stir until the sauce thickens, approximately 3-5 minutes.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Once the sauce has reached your desired consistency, remove from heat and serve immediately over pasta, or store for later use.
