Dominos Garlic Parmesan Sauce Ingredients

  • Heavy cream: Rich, velvety base for a creamy sauce.
  • Grated Parmesan cheese: Adds a sharp, nutty flavor to the sauce.
  • Butter: Provides richness and smooth texture to the sauce.
  • Minced garlic: Adds fragrant and savory garlic flavor.
  • Italian seasoning: A blend of herbs to enhance flavor complexity.
  • Salt: Balances flavors and enhances the richness.
  • Black pepper: Adds a hint of spice and depth.
  • Flour (optional): Thickens the sauce for a creamier consistency.

How to Make Dominos Garlic Parmesan Sauce

Step One: In a saucepan, pour the heavy cream and heat it over medium heat. Stir occasionally until it begins to simmer. Add the butter and minced garlic to the cream, stirring continuously until the butter melts and the garlic becomes fragrant (about 1-2 minutes).

Step Two: Add the grated Parmesan cheese to the mixture, stirring until it melts and the sauce becomes smooth. Stir in Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if necessary. If you prefer a thicker sauce, whisk in a tablespoon of flour and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce reaches your desired consistency.

Step Three: Remove from heat and serve immediately as a dip for pizza, breadsticks, or your favorite dishes!

Dominos Garlic Parmesan Sauce Recipe Tips

  • Use fresh garlic: Freshly minced garlic provides the best flavor for the sauce. Avoid using pre-minced garlic for the best results.
  • Adjust consistency: If you prefer a thicker sauce, you can add a tablespoon of flour or cornstarch. For a thinner sauce, just skip the flour and add a little more cream or milk.
  • Low and slow: When heating the cream, do so over medium heat to avoid scalding it. Stir it often for a smooth sauce texture.
  • Grated Parmesan works best: Use freshly grated Parmesan cheese for a richer flavor. Pre-grated cheese can result in a less creamy texture.
  • Flavor variations: Feel free to add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a slight kick or extra herbs like parsley or thyme for a different flavor profile.
  • Make ahead: You can make this sauce in advance and store it in the refrigerator. Just reheat it gently before using, and if needed, thin it out with a little cream or milk.

Storing

  • Storing: Allow the garlic Parmesan sauce to cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container. Store it in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
  • Freezing: You can freeze the garlic Parmesan sauce in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. Just be sure to leave some space at the top to allow for expansion as it freezes.
  • Reheating: To reheat, warm the sauce gently on the stovetop over low heat, stirring occasionally. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of cream or milk to restore its desired consistency.
