Making the Béchamel Sauce
-
In a medium sized pot, put the heat on low and melt the stick of butter

Once the butter is melted, add the flour continuing to stir and mix the flour in creating a roux. The finished roux should be a blonde color. For a thicker sauce, extra flour can be added.
-
While the roux is finishing, warm the milk to a lukewarm temperature. Once the roux is complete, start to slowly add the milk and continue to stir while adding.
-
After about a quarter of the milk is added the rest of the milk can be put in. Switch to a whisk and continue to mix the sauce until it comes to a boil making sure nothing sticks to the bottom of the pot.
-
Once to a boil, add 1/4 lb. of grated parmesan cheese and continue to stir the mixture, again making sure nothing sticks to the bottom.
-
Add a pinch of salt and pepper and 1/4 tsp. of nutmeg.
Mix into the sauce and continue to cook for another 10 minutes.
