Recipe

• 1 when i originally wrote this recipe, i really didn't think about the garlic much. i was using peeled garlic. if you use a head of garlic, do yourself a favor: cut the head in half across the grain, and either use a garlic roaster, or wrap the head in foil tightly and bake for an hour at 250; that will loosen the cloves, and roasting will impart more flavor. just squeeze each clove into the pan. or (original instruction) mince the garlic until it's very fine.
• 2 melt the butter in a small pan.
• 3 add the minced garlic. brown the mixture.
• 4 add the flour and whisk to form a roux.
• 5 add the lemon juice and milk. continue whisking until the sauce is smooth.
• 6 hey! you're done! pour a bit over your fish and enjoy!
