The consistency of this sauce is enhanced by a roux, a mixture of fat and flour that is cooked over low heat until it is bubbling and the raw starchy taste has cooked out.
I make these restaurant-style knots of garlicky goodness out of pizza dough. They are glistening and crusty on the outside with a warm, doughy center. I once set a large tray of these on the dinner table in front of my brother Andy, expecting him to take one and pass it down. Let’s just say the tray didn’t make it to anybody else. I couldn’t blame him because these two-bite knots are finger-lickin’ good!
