Day 182: Béchamel Sauce

Writer: The Bored BakerThe Bored Baker

This is one of my favorite sauces. It's creamy, rich, and delicious all at the same time!

I've been wanting to make this Béchamel sauce for a long time now.

This is my grandma's recipe which was past down to my mom, and now to me!

Béchamel or "White Sauce" as it's sometimes called, is made with:

  1. Butter

  2. Flour

  3. Milk

  4. Salt/Pepper

It's so easy. I know the name sounds scary, but it's really not. It's done in less than five minutes and is perfect for pasta, pizza, dips and even sandwiches.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1/2 tablespoon butter

  • 2 tablespoons flour (I use whole wheat)

STEPS:

  1. Over medium low heat melt butter in a large saucepan. Add in your flour and stir until you can smell a nutty aroma.

  2. Add in your milk and stir until it thickens - around 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Enjoy!
