Steps:
- Slice or dice the butter into small pieces, and melt it over low heat in a NON-aluminum saucepan.
- It's important to avoid aluminum, because it tends to turn light-colored sauces an unappetizing gray hue.
- When the butter has begun to foam and bubble, vigorously mix in the flour with a wooden spoon, or wire whisk.
- If you want your final sauce to be white, make absolutely sure not to let the roux turn brown.
- If it does begin to get tinged with beige, turn down the burner, or remove the pot from the heat altogether, to let the roux cool down for a few seconds.
- Let cook and bubble 2-3 minutes, until the roux is smooth, and has the consistency of cake frosting.
- This removes the floury taste.
- When making a roux-based sauce, always be sure that the roux and the liquid (milk or stock) are different temperatures before you combine them.
- If the roux is hot, the liquid should be cold; if the roux is cold, the liquid should be hot.
- Combining the 2 ingredients at different temperatures allows them to heat up at a moderate rate, not too fast, and not too slow, ensuring a velvety-smooth, lump-free sauce.
- If you're not yet a sauce expert, try the hot liquid/cold roux approach first.
- That way, you can gradually add roux until the sauce is the exact thickness you like.
- Gradually stir in milk, Parmesan cheese, and garlic powder.
- Bring to boil, and then reduce heat.
- Let simmer 3-5 minutes, or until thickened.
- Keep warm.
- Cook onions in boiling water, until fork inserted in center, goes in easily, 15-20 mins.
- You don't want the onions to be mushy.
- Strain, and put in serving dish.
- Pour sauce over onions.
- Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and serve.

EASY CHEDDAR-GARLIC CHEESE SAUCE
I made this super simple cheese sauce to serve with steamed broccoli. Pour it on top or use it as a dip. You can't go wrong either way. I used sharp cheddar cheese, but a stronger or milder version of cheddar would be a fine substitute. Enjoy!
