BéCHAMEL SAUCE



Béchamel Sauce image

A Classic Béchamel Sauce (also known as "white sauce") is one of the most simple recipes out there, but it is such a great technique to know!Please note, this makes a larger quantity of sauce (enough for 4 layers of white sauce in a 9x13 inch lasagna). The recipe is fine to cut in half or even into ¼ if you need less.

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 tablespoons butter
¾ cup flour
4 ½ cups milk
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg (or more to taste)
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Melt butter in saucepan over medium heat (saucepan needs to hold at least 2 quart).
  • Whisk flour into butter and cook, whisking constantly, for 2-4 minutes. Flour must not brown.
  • Gradually whisk milk into flour/butter mixture, do not allow lumps to form. Once all milk has been added, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until sauce has thickened, whisking constantly (if sauce hasn't thickened after 5 minutes, heat setting is too low - increase a little until sauce is just bubbling and thickens).
  • If needing a thinner sauce, slowly and gradually whisk in more milk until desired consistency is reached.
  • Season sauce with ground nutmeg and add salt and pepper to taste. Use in favorite recipe.
