How to Make Ryanzgurl S Amazing Alfredo Sauce

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
  2. Whisk in 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour until smooth (this creates a roux).
  3. Gradually whisk in 2 cups of whole milk, ensuring no lumps form.
  4. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens slightly (about 5 minutes).
  5. Reduce heat to low and stir in 1 1/2 cups of freshly grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.
  6. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Add a pinch of nutmeg for an extra layer of warmth (optional).
  7. Serve immediately over your favorite pasta, vegetables, or use as a lasagna sauce. Enjoy!
