Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Powdered milk
- 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine powdered milk, grated Parmesan cheese, all-purpose flour, garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, black pepper, salt, and nutmeg (if using).
Mix the ingredients thoroughly to ensure even distribution.
Transfer the Alfredo sauce mix to an airtight container or jar. Label it with the preparation date and store it in a cool, dry place. The mix can be stored for up to 6 weeks.
To prepare Alfredo sauce: In a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat, combine 1/3 cup of the dry mix with 1 cup of water and 1 tablespoon of butter. Whisk continuously until the mixture is smooth and starts to thicken, about 4-5 minutes.
Once thickened, remove from heat and serve immediately over cooked pasta, vegetables, or protein of your choice.
If a thinner consistency is desired, gradually add more water or milk while whisking until you reach your preferred texture.
