Expert Tips That I Recommend

  • When I make my Pizza Hut Garlic Sauce at home, I like it a bit thick. To achieve this, I add heavy cream along with half and half milk. This gives the desired consistency, which is a perfect recreation of the classic Pizza Hut Garlic Sauce.
  • I made the mistake of getting my garlic burnt on the first attempt, which ruined the taste. Burnt garlic can alter the taste of your garlic sauce, so make sure you roast them only mildly.
  • When adding the milk, I whisk it constantly to get a smooth sauce without any lumps.
  • I also follow the same method of constantly whisking the pan when adding the flour or little lumps that can be created in the sauce.
  • Whenever I find the sauce separating after reheating, I blend it again to restore the consistency.
  • If not cooked properly, flour can leave a raw taste. Hence, I always ensure that the flour is cooked properly before adding more liquid to avoid the raw taste.

Recipe Variations For Different Diets

  • Gluten-Free: When I heard that this delicious creamy garlic pizza sauce is not gluten-free, I quickly looked for alternatives. There are not many ingredients in this sauce that contain gluten, so to make it gluten-free, I swapped the all-purpose flour with buckwheat flour or almond flour.
  • Dairy-Free: To make this recipe dairy-free, I use unsweetened dairy-free milk. I also avoid adding cheese and use nutritional yeast instead to create that nice creamy texture.

Storing And Reheating This Recipe

Storing

  • Countertop: I have found that leaving the Pizza Hut Garlic Sauce on the countertop allows the flavors to blend nicely. However, after 2-3 hours, I recommend putting it in a refrigerator to prevent it from getting spoiled.
  • Refrigerate: Since this sauce can be served with various main dishes, I make it in batches and store it in the fridge for 3-4 days. While doing so, I put it in airtight containers to keep the flavors and texture intact.
  • Freezer: When I make the sauce in even larger batches to use for months, I pour it into airtight containers or freezer-friendly bags and freeze it for about 2-3 months.

Reheating

  • Microwave: I enjoy a nice, warm Pizza Hut Garlic Sauce; using a microwave is the best way to reheat it. I pop my Pizza Hut creamy garlic sauce in a microwave-friendly dish and heat at low settings with a 20-second increment.
  • Stovetop: I find heating the Pizza Hut Garlic Sauce to be very easy on the stovetop. So, I add a few splashes of milk in the pan to prevent the sauce from sticking. Then I gently stir it until it warms enough, and then I serve it with the main dishes.

What To Serve With This Recipe

This low-fat, refreshing Pizza Hut Garlic Sauce is a perfect addition to any meal. I enjoy it with my bread in the morning and with my Salad for lunch.

If you are not much of a salad person, then you can also enjoy it with Gabubu Bread, bandore tote, or Nan, and it tastes immaculate. Being a versatile dip, I also enjoy it with French Fries, and this is one of my favorite combinations to try out.

But on days when I feel guilty about my food choices, I combine my Pizza Hut creamy garlic sauce with a bowl of veggies consisting of beetroot, cucumber, onions, and veggies of my choice.
