Directions:
Melt the butter and olive oil over low heat. Add the garlic and sauté until it is soft and fragrant but not browned. Put the whole mixture into a large blender. Bring the broth to a boil in a large pot. Lower the temperature to medium-low and cook the cauliflower, covered, until the cauliflower is fork tender (about 7 minutes). Use a slotted spoon to transfer the cauliflower pieces to the blender. Add 1 cup of the cooking liquid, salt, pepper and milk. Blend or pureé for several minutes until the sauce is very smooth, adding more broth or milk of you need to thin the sauce. Add the Parmesan cheese and blend. Serve hot on pasta, rice, vegetables, etc.
