The most versatile cream sauce! It is great on it's own or as a base, which can be easily be jazzed up by adding chunks of smoked salmon, grated cheese, or carmelized onions - yum! It is perfect for pasta or served over steamed veggies. Also try it as a delicious, creamy layer in a vegetarian lasagna or mix this sauce into a veggie puree for an instant creamed soup. Ingredients:
4 cups milk (works with soymilk if you'd rather keep it parve) |
2 tablespoons flour |
2 tablespoons butter (or margarine) |
1 dash salt |
1 dash fresh cracked pepper |
1 pinch nutmeg |
1 egg yolk (optional) |
Directions:
1. Dissolve flour in 1/2 cup of milk (or soymilk). Set aside.
2. Warm the remaining milk in a saucepan, over med heat. Do not let it boil.
3. Add butter (or margarine), salt, pepper and nutmeg. Do not be afraid to use the nutmeg, it makes the sauce!
4. Add the dissolved flour/milk mixture. Whisk over med heat until it thickens.
5. For an even richer sauce, remove from stove and quickly whisk in an egg yolk.
