Ingredients

PLAN/PURCHASE
2 Tbsp sweet butter, unsalted
2 Tbsp yellow onion, finely chopped
2 Tbsp flour, all-purpose variety
4 clove baked garlic, smashed
1/4 tsp dried parsley
1/4 tsp dried oregano
1/8 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
1//8 tsp white pepper, freshly ground
1 c whole milk
1/4 c parmesan cheese
1/4 c pecorino romano
1 - 2 dash(es) truffle oil (optional)

Steps:

1. PREP/PREPARE
2. Gather your Ingredients (mise en place).
3. Add a bit of salt to the baked garlic, and then smash it smooth with the flat end of your kitchen knife. You want it like a paste.
4. Chef's Note: If you have never baked garlic, you will love its wonderful mellow flavor. Here is a recipe on how to bake garlic: https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/seasoning-mix/cooking-essentials-baked-garlic.html?r=4
5. Add the butter to a saucepan over medium heat.
6. When the butter melts, add the onion, and sauté in the butter for 1 minute.
7. Add the flour, baked garlic, black and white pepper, parsley and oregano to the saucepan, and whisk until completely combined, and beginning to bubble, about 2 - 3 minutes.
8. Add the milk and whisk to combine.
9. When the mixture begins to simmer, add the cheeses, and stir until the mixture begins to thicken, about 4 - 6 minutes.
10. Chef's Note: At this point remove from the heat, and add the truffle oil, if using.
11. Chef's Tip: If the mixture become too thick, add a bit of milk, a tablespoon at a time, until you have the right consistency. It should be thick enough to easily coat the back of a spoon, and leave a trail when you run your finger across it.
12. PLATE/PRESENT
13. Use it on your next pizza.
14. Use it over a plate of pasta. Enjoy
15. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
