- Tip #1: To avoid burning the garlic, be sure to cook it over medium heat and stir constantly. Garlic can quickly turn bitter if overcooked.
- Tip #2: For a creamier sauce, use whole milk, but if you prefer a lighter sauce, feel free to substitute with skim milk or a dairy-free alternative.
- Tip #3: Fresh basil adds a burst of flavor, but you can also use other fresh herbs like oregano or parsley to suit your taste.
