More or less milk will produce a thinner or thicker sauce. Keep warm, if necessary, in top of double boiler over simmering water, but do not cover because the steam will thin the sauce. Ingredients:
2 cups milk |
1/4 cup butter |
1/4 cup all-purpose flour |
salt |
white pepper |
Directions:
1. Warm milk in a saucepan over low heat. In a separate heavy-based saucepan, melt butter. Add flour all at once and cook until bubbly. 2. Whisking constantly, gradually add milk. 3. Continue whisking until sauce thickens; cook 2 to 3 minutes over low heat, stirring constantly, until the consistency is rich and creamy. Season with salt and white pepper. 4. Serve hot with lightly-cooked vegetables or use as a base for other sauces. |
