For a richer flavor, use high-quality European butter. Substitute fresh oregano or thyme for a variation on the herbal profile. Adjust the amount of garlic salt to suit your preference for saltiness and garlic flavor. If you prefer a smoother sauce, use an immersion blender to puree the sauce after simmering.
