Homemade Bechamel sauce

I decided to try another recipe using what I had handy.

I also wanted to add a heavy drizzle of Bechamel sauce to the recipe.

Below is the white creamy sauce recipe.




Once butter melts, sprinkle flour over the butter and cook for 3-5 minutes until a roux forms. You want a light roux, so don't let it brown. It should have a nutty smell. 

Reduce the heat to low – this is important, don't skip this! – and slowly add in your milk. Whisk well.

Whisk occasionally as your sauce thickens. When it's ready, it will be thick enough to cling to your whisk or the back of your spoon. This should take about 20 minutes.
Sprinkle with salt to taste, and your sauce is ready!
