Ingredients
- 8 ounces spaghetti
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups milk plus more, to taste
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
- 1/2 cup fontina cheese shredded
- 1/4 cup Gruyère cheese shredded
- 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese freshly grated
- kosher salt to taste
- freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley leaves chopped, for garnish
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives chopped, for garnish
Directions
- In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the pasta to al dente, according to the package instructions. Drain well.
- Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
- Add the garlic to the butter and cook, stirring frequently, until it is fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
- Whisk the flour into the garlic butter until it is lightly browned, about 1 minute.
- Gradually whisk 1 1/2 cups of the milk, the heavy cream, and the Italian seasoning into the garlic mixture and cook, whisking constantly, until it is incorporated, about 1-2 minutes.
- Stir the mozzarella, the fontina, the Gruyère, and the Parmesan into the milk mixture until the sauce thickens slightly, about 1-2 minutes. If the mixture is too thick, add more of the milk as needed.
- Season the sauce with the salt and the pepper.
- Stir the cooked pasta into the sauce and gently toss to combine.
- Garnish the pasta with the parsley and the chives and serve.
