Ingredients
HOMEMADE ALFREDO SAUCE:
- 3 Tbsps unsalted butter
- 1 ½ cups heavy cream, organic
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon organic all-purpose flour
- 1 cup freshly-grated parmesan cheese
- 1 cup Mild or Sharp cheddar, optional (You'll want to ensure that either cheese are white or lighter in color to keep the sauce as traditional as possible; I love Organic Valley)
- ⅓ cup organic vegetable or chicken stock/broth
- 2 tsps Italian Seasoning, homemade or store-bought
Instructions
TO MAKE THE ALFREDO SAUCE:
- In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, add the butter until melted. Add the garlic cloves and sauté for 1 minute or so, until fragrant.
- Add the Italian seasoning and flour, stirring until combined.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and slowly add in the heavy cream, and stock, stirring until combined. Let it slightly bubble for 1-2 minutes and then add in the grated parmesan and cheddar cheese (if using), whisking until fully melted and sauce thickens, about 2-3 minutes.
- Enjoy this sauce over your favorite pasta!
Notes
STORAGE: Best when enjoyed within the same day, however, leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, add sauce to a saucepan and add a few Tablespoons of heavy cream if needed for consistency.
