For extra flavor, toast the walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes, or until fragrant, before adding them to the sauce.
A pinch of red pepper flakes can add a delightful hint of spice to balance the sweetness.
Freshly grated nutmeg will provide a more intense and aromatic flavor than pre-ground nutmeg.
If you prefer a richer sauce, use brown butter instead of melted butter.
