Comments: 12/21/2014 - Sprinkled sauce with garlic powder instead of of pinches garlic salt and kosher salt
7/31/2018 - I used 1/4 teaspoon each of garlic powder and of salt substitute.
12/30/2018 - 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder and salt substitute made the dish taste garlicky, but it was OK for Gail.
2/23/2020 - Before adding the flour to the saucepan, I sautéd some sliced mushrooms in the butter. Then I used 1/4 teaspoon each of garlic powder and of salt substitute, and followed the recipe.
