Bóymoder Bechamel

Ingredients

For 1 person/portion

• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 tablespoon flour
• ½ cup milk
• ½ teaspoon salt
• Pepper and other seasonings you like

Bigger portion (8x)

• ½ cup butter (113g)
• ½ cup flour (60g)
• 4 cups milk
• 1 tablespoon salt
• Pepper and other seasonings you like

Instructions

1. On a cooking pot at low heat, melt the butter, stiring constantly so it doesn't burn
2. Once the butter is all melted, add the flour and whisk until all the flour is combined with the butter
3. Then add the milk, whisk vigorously to break up any lumps and prevent the milk from burning (be sure to get the corners of the pot as well!)
4. Once it starts bubbling, add the salt and seasonings (for it to start boiling faster, you can use already warm milk :3)
5. Turn off the heat and whisk for a few more seconds
6. Enjoy your boymoder bechamel (with whatever else) :3

Notes

• The bechamel will thicken a bit after cooling down, don't panic if it's too liquid out of the heat
• If after cooling down the bechamel is too liquid, bring it back to heat and add more flour (~½ tablespoon at a time)
• If after cooling down the bechamel is too thick, bring it back to heat and add more milk
• If you can't use a metal whisk with your cooking pot, you can also use a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, it just makes it harder to break up the lumps
• If by the end there are still lumps, pass the bechamel through a sift
