Creamy Rosemary Sauce

This infused sauce follows the 'less is more' principle. The fats (butter and cream) are excellent at absorbing the aroma of spices. By 'steeping' the rosemary in the warm fat, the essential oils are released and permeate the entire sauce without the need to dodge hard leaves. The parmesan acts as a natural thickener and flavor enhancer.

Instructions

1

Melt the butter, then add the crushed garlic and the whole rosemary sprig. Sauté for 1 minute.

Tip: Releasing aromas in fat (infusion) is most effective.
2

Pour in the cream and simmer gently for 5-8 minutes.

Tip: The cream loses water and thickens.
3

Remove the rosemary sprig. Stir in the parmesan and pepper. Taste before adding salt.

Tip: Be careful with extra salt due to the saltiness of the parmesan!
