White Pizza Sauce Recipe

Recipe Description

This Quick & Easy White Pizza Sauce Recipe is an easy pizza sauce to make. It is a take on an Alfredo sauce made with milk, cheese, and garlic. It is a great alternative to a tomato-based sauce on pizzas with chicken or bacon toppings. It also tastes great with caramelized onions and blue cheese.

To make this quick sauce, start by making a roux from butter and flour. Add milk gradually while whisking constantly until smooth and thickened. Add salt, black pepper, and pressed garlic. Whisk in Parmesan cheese. Remove from the heat and continue to whisk until the cheese is melted and sauce is smooth.

Top tip: do not boil the sauce after adding the cheese or it may curdle. This sauce will keep for up to 5 days in the refrigerator.
