About Creamy garlic sauce

Creamy garlic sauce is a rich and flavorful condiment made from garlic, butter, heavy cream, and seasonings like salt, pepper, and sometimes parsley or Parmesan cheese. Originating from European cuisine, it’s commonly found in Italian and Mediterranean dishes, pairing beautifully with pasta, roasted vegetables, or grilled meats. The sauce's creamy texture and robust garlic flavor make it a versatile addition to meals seeking a touch of indulgence. While garlic offers health benefits such as boosting immunity and providing antioxidants, the sauce's high calorie and fat content, primarily from butter and heavy cream, should be enjoyed in moderation. For a lighter alternative, some recipes substitute cream with low-fat milk or add thickening agents like cornstarch. Whether used as a drizzle, dip, or marinade, creamy garlic sauce adds a comforting and decadent element to your culinary creations.
