4 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup pecorino romano, grated
1/2 cup parmesano reggiano, grated
1 teaspoon black pepper
Directions:
In a medium saucepan melt butter and add garlic.
Let garlic saute for 3-4 minutes, or until aromatic.
Add cream and heat until a soft boil (watch it closely!)
Lower heat slightly and add cheeses.
Continue to stir until cheese is melted and integrated.
** this sauce is so unbelievably good because of the quality of the cheeses! Though they are expensive, you do not need much to achieve a rich and delicious sauce and it will definitely be worth it.
I had pecorino romano on hand so I only used that and it was still, by far, the best cream sauce I have ever had. I tossed it with garlic-herb fettucine that I got at the farmer’s market this morning which made a fantastic dish!
