Steps:
- Melt the butter in a saucepan and add the flour.
- Whisk until smooth then slowly pour in the milk, a little at a time. (I always reserve approximately ½ cup milk. Some flours will absorb more/less liquid so you might not need all of it and sometimes after adding cheese I like to thin out the sauce just a little with the remaining milk.)
- Whisk continuously until the sauce is thick then turn down the heat, add the spices and allow to simmer, stirring, until the sauce is thick and cooked through (this takes around 7-10 minutes on a gentle heat).
- Once the sauce is cooked (the sauce will be completely smooth tasting with no flouriness) season to taste.
- If making cheese sauce, remove the pot from the heat and stir in the cheese. Season to taste.

- Whisking constantly, add the hot milk in a steady stream. Bring the milk to a gentle simmer and continue to whisk until the sauce thickens, about 10 minutes.
- Whisk in the nutmeg and the cheese, and serve at once

- Béchamel Sauce. A traditional béchamel sauce is made by whisking hot milk into a simple flour-butter roux. The sauce is then simmered with onion, cloves, bay leaf, and nutmeg until it is creamy and velvety smooth.
- Cream Sauce. Sauce crème is an original classic cream sauce. It is also one of the simplest variations on béchamel sauce. This one is made by whisking heavy cream into the finished béchamel and adding a little salt and pepper to taste.
- Mornay Sauce. The mornay sauce is made by enriching a standard béchamel sauce with gruyère and parmesan cheeses. It's surprisingly similar to making macaroni and cheese from scratch!
- Soubise Sauce. For the soubise sauce, you'll sauté onions, then purée them. This is added to the béchamel. It's a classic cream sauce that you'll want to make for any vegetable dish, though it works just as well with chicken or eggs.
- Nantua Sauce. Nantua sauce is a classic seafood sauce. This version is made by incorporating shrimp butter and cream into a basic béchamel sauce. Traditionally, however, it is made with crayfish.
- Cheddar Cheese Sauce. There are many ways to make a cheddar cheese sauce, but one of the best is with a béchamel base. All you need to do is add cheddar cheese, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce.
- Dairy-Free Béchamel Sauce. Béchamel uses milk and butter, so it doesn't fit specialty diets like those for vegans and people who can't consume dairy products.
