How to Make Creamy Vino Sauce

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup chopped onion and 2 cloves minced garlic. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until softened and fragrant, stirring occasionally.
  2. Whisk in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, to create a roux.
  3. Gradually whisk in 1 cup heavy cream and 1/2 cup dry white wine (such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio). Bring to a simmer, stirring continuously.
  4. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency, stirring occasionally.
  5. (Optional) Stir in 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese and cook for 1 minute more.
  6. Remove from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley and 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil.
