.Here’s a classic Creamy White Sauce recipe, also known as Béchamel Sauce, which is a French “mother sauce” and a base for many dishes like pasta, lasagna, or casseroles:

Basic Creamy White Sauce (Béchamel)

Ingredients

:

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups milk (preferably warm)
  • Salt to taste
  • Pinch of white pepper or black pepper
  • Pinch of nutmeg (optional, for added depth)

Instructions

:

  1. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
  2. Whisk in the flour and stir constantly for 1–2 minutes to form a roux (this removes the raw flour taste).
  3. Slowly add warm milk, whisking continuously to avoid lumps.
  4. Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring until the sauce thickens (about 5–7 minutes).
  5. Season with salt, pepper, and optional nutmeg.
  6. Use immediately or keep warm over low heat. Stir occasionally to prevent a skin from forming.

Variations

:

  • Cheese Sauce: Add 1 cup grated cheese (like cheddar or parmesan) once the sauce thickens.
  • Garlic Cream Sauce: Sauté minced garlic in the butter before adding flour.
  • Mushroom White Sauce: Sauté mushrooms first, then proceed with the sauce.
  • Herb Sauce: Add fresh or dried herbs (parsley, basil, thyme) for flavor.
