Main Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- ¼ tsp black pepper
Cooking
Warm the oil. Heat the olive oil in a small saucepan over medium heat, then stir in the garlic for 30 to 60 seconds until fragrant.
Add the cream. Pour in the cream and bring it to a gentle simmer, stirring often.
Add the cheese. Stir in the Parmesan, Italian seasoning, and pepper, then simmer 5 to 6 minutes until the sauce coats a spoon.
Rest and use. Remove from the heat, rest 3 minutes, and spread on pizza dough.
Substitutions: Half and half gives a thinner sauce, and a pinch of salt can be added after tasting.
Tips: Keep the heat low so the cream does not scorch.
Storage: Refrigerate for up to 3 days and warm gently with a splash of milk.
