When my husband and I got married in 1951, one of the first appliances we bought was an apartment-size electric range. The range came with a cookbook that included this recipe. I've used the same recipe ever since! Ingredients:
1/4 cup butter, cubed |
1/4 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
2 teaspoons salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
2-1/2 cups milk |
1-1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded process cheese (velveeta) |
6 medium potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced |
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, melt butter. Whisk in the flour, salt and pepper until smooth. Gradually add milk. Bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Reduce heat. Add cheese; cook and stir until melted.
2. Place potatoes in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Pour sauce over potatoes. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 1 hour or until potatoes are tender. Yield: 8-10 servings.
