Provided by Yoly

Time 10m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup whole milk
1 ¾ cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour and salt until a paste forms. Slowly add milk; cook and stir until fully incorporated, about 2 minutes. Add cheese, stir to combine, and cook until melted, 1 to 2 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality cheese. A sharp cheddar cheese will give your sauce a more intense flavor.
  • Grate your cheese fresh. Pre-shredded cheese is often coated with cellulose, which can prevent it from melting smoothly.
  • Don't overcook the sauce. A white sauce should be thick and creamy, but not too thick. If you overcook it, it will become rubbery.
  • Season the sauce to taste. A little salt and pepper will go a long way in enhancing the flavor of the sauce.
  • Use fresh herbs to add flavor to the sauce. Some good options include parsley, thyme, and rosemary.

Conclusion:

White sauce is a versatile sauce that can be used in a variety of dishes. It's a great way to add flavor and creaminess to your favorite recipes. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious white sauce that will impress your friends and family.
