Steps
  1. Melt the butter over low heat in a medium saucepan. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  2. Add the flour to the pan and whisk to combine, cooking for 1-2 minutes to form a roux.
  3. Gradually pour in the milk while continuously whisking. Increase heat to medium and stir for 3-5 minutes until thickened.
  4. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and the sauce is creamy.
  5. If using white wine, pour it in now and stir to deglaze the pan. Allow to simmer for 1 minute.

  7. Mix in the fresh herbs and season with salt and pepper to taste.
