Number Of Ingredients 7

2 Tbsp butter, unsalted
2 Tbsp all purpose flour
1 c milk
pinch kosher salt
pinch freshly ground white pepper
pinch freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 c gruyere or swiss cheese, shredded

Steps:

  • 1. Melt the butter in a saucepan over low to medium heat. Using a wooden spoon, stir in the flour and mix well. Continuing stirring over low heat for two minutes.
  • 2. Using a whisk, and continually whisking, add the milk in small quantities - about two tablespoons at a time. Make sure that you fully incorporate the liquid before adding more - this way you will get a smooth sauce.
  • 3. After you've added about half the milk, pour in the rest and give the mixture a good whisking. Continue to heat the sauce on low to medium heat, whisking often. Cook just to below boiling until the mixture thickens.
  • 4. Add the cheese about 2 tablespoons at a time, thoroughly incorporating each addtion.
  • 5. Remove from heat and whisk in nutmeg, salt and pepper.

This sauce was a bit too rich for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less butter and cream next time.
