Steps:
- In a stove-top pot melt butter.
- Add flour and whisk well until a thick creamy paste forms. Cook for 1-2 minutes.
- Slowly pour in about ⅓ cup of milk. Continue whisking energetically breaking all the lumps. Make sure to scrape well the bottom and sides of the pot.
- Once you have reached a smooth consistency add a little more milk. Continue adding milk in small portions until you have used up all the milk.
- Increase the heat a little and continue whisking and cooking the sauce.
- Once it starts to thicken, cook it for another 20-30 seconds and turn off the heat.
- Continue to whisk. You'll notice Bechamel Sauce will continue to thicken even with the heat off.
- Once it reached desired consistency, season it with nutmeg and salt to taste or other seasonings (see suggestions above the recipe).
- Give another good stir.
- If you're not planning to use the sauce immediately see my tips above how to store it to prevent a skin from forming.

Steps:
- Melt the 1/2 cup butter in a pan over medium heat. Stir in the flour with a wooden spoon. Cook's Note: This is an important moment, as you have to slowly toast the flour without burning it. This will help you lose the flowery taste.
- Warm up the milk and gradually ladle into the pot with the butter-flour mixture, whisking constantly while bringing the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat, and simmer for about 15 minutes. Season the sauce with freshly grated nutmeg, salt, and pepper.

Steps:
- Melt the butter in a heavy medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the flour and cook for 1½-2 minutes, stirring con- stantly with a wooden spoon to prevent it from taking on any color whatsoever. Gradually add the hot milk in a slow, steady stream, stirring constantly with a whisk to prevent lumps. Increase the heat to medium and cook the sauce, stirring con- stantly with a wooden spoon, until it has the consistency of very thick cream, 10-15 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat.
- Stir in the cheese, if using, and season with nutmeg and salt to taste. Strain the sauce through a sieve if it is lumpy. Lay a sheet of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the besciamella to keep it warm until ready to use and to prevent a skin from forming.

BECHAMEL SAUCE
From Giada De Laurentiis Everyday Italian. She says - This sauce is named after the Marquis de Bechamel. In Italian, it's called balsamella or besciamella. The original and full French version also involves steeping some onion and a bay leaf in milk for 30 minutes to infuse the sauce with more flavor but here's an everyday approach. My simplified version is a snap to make and is perfect with baked rigatoni with bechamel sauce. You could also use it the way you would hollandaise sauce.

- What is 'besciamella'? Besciamella is the Italian version of béchamel, one of the five fundamental French "mother sauces." Whether it originated in Italy or in France has been debated (and still not determined), but it first appeared sometime during the reign of Louis XIV.
- Melt the butter. We're going to make 2 cups of besciamella. Scale up or down depending on your recipe's requirements, though it would be difficult to successfully make less than 1 cup.
- Whisk in flour. With a wire whisk, whisk 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour into the melted butter. You now have a roux, an essential element in many classic dishes and the basis of several of the "mother sauces."
- Cook the roux. Continue cooking the roux over low heat, whisking continuously, until it is lightly golden brown (about 3 to 5 minutes). Be careful not to scorch it or brown it too much, but just enough to bring out a warm, nutty color and aroma.
- Add the milk. Slowly pour in 2 cups of milk, whisking vigorously and continuously. The roux will tend to seize and clump up when the liquid is added (use room temperature or slightly heated milk, not fridge-cold milk, to avoid this), so it's important to keep whisking energetically until the roux has dissolved in the milk and it forms an even, homogeneous mixture.
- Season. Season with a pinch of freshly ground nutmeg, a pinch of white pepper (if desired), and fine sea salt, to taste. Continue to 7 of 7 below.
- Raise heat & whisk until thickened. Raise the heat to medium and continue whisking the mixture until it starts to thicken (about 5 to 7 minutes). Don't let a skin form on top of the sauce or on the bottom of the pot.
