Scandinavian Sauciness (Paired with chicken meatballs over penne)

Time estimate: 8 minutes

Ingredients

-1 Tbs Butter
-1 Garlic clove minced (try the pampered chef garlic press)
-Generous pinch of all spice and nutmeg
-1 cup of milk
-1 cup of beef broth
-1 Tbs + 1 Tsp of cornstarch.
-Pepper and salt
-Parsley for garnishing
*optional* ¼ cup of cream or half and half


Utensils Needed:

-Medium sauce pan
-Measuring cups and spoons
-Garlic press
-Whisk
-Bowl for milk and broth

Directions

-Melt butter over medium in saucepan. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute.

-While garlic is cooking mix cornstarch, and spices into a bowl with the milk and beef broth. Whisk until all lumps are gone.

-When garlic is done, whisk the liquids again to prevent the cornstarch from lumping and add to the garlic. Turn to med-high and whisk frequently until thickened. Add pepper and salt to taste. If you're looking for something a little creamier add in the cream or half and half. Garnish with parsley.
