Bechamel (White Sauce) image

This easy-to-make sauce is delicious over chicken, pasta, steamed veggies, and more! While the recipe calls for 2 cups of milk, you may need to add 1 Tbs. - 1/4 cup more to thin, depending on your heat and other variables. Remember, sauces thicken as they cool, but they still take quite a while to thicken (up to 15 minutes, depending on your heat).

Yield 2 1/2 cups, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

This recipe is a fail. The sauce was bland and watery. I won't be making it again.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my sauce turned out lumpy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This sauce was a bit too thick for my taste, but it still tasted good. I'll try making it again with less flour next time.
