- Stir in sour cream, salt, and pepper.
- Add white wine (or sherry, milk, or cream) to thin the sauce to your desired consistency.

- Serve immediately over your favorite noodles, pasta, mashed potatoes, or in puff pastry shells. Garnish with chopped parsley.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
