White garlic sauce*
- Mince garlic. Melt butter in large sauce pan over med-low heat, whisking constantly. Add garlic, cook for 30 seconds stirring frequently. Add flour, oregano, salt and pepper. Whisk for 30 seconds. Add cream, whisk. Add parmesan cheese, whisk. Cook until desired consistency. Remove from heat and reserve 1 cup.
PIZZA (8-10 minutes)
- Preheat oven to 550 degrees F. with baking steel or pizza stone inside the oven for 1 hour.
