For an even smoother sauce, consider using an immersion blender to blend the sauce after cooking.
If you don't have fresh herbs, you can substitute dried herbs. Use 1 teaspoon of dried basil and 1/4 teaspoon of dried oregano.
This sauce can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently over low heat, adding a splash of milk if needed to restore its creamy consistency.
Feel free to experiment with different cheeses, such as Pecorino Romano or Asiago, for a unique flavor profile.
Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat.

    This sauce is amazing! It's so much better than the store-bought stuff. I used it on a pizza with roasted vegetables and it was a hit!

    I was skeptical about making a white pizza sauce, but this recipe changed my mind. It's so easy to make and the flavor is incredible. I added a little bit of nutmeg for a warm, nutty flavor.
