Bechamel sauce, gluten free

Ingredients

• 50 g Butter, unsalted
• 25 g Gluten free flour mix
• 300 ml Milk (cold)
• 1 pinch Nutmeg, freshly grated
• 1 pinch Salt
• 1 pinch Black pepper, ground

Method

1. Melt the butter over medium heat.
2. When butter has completely melted, add the flour and whisk until smooth, about 2 minutes.
3. Gradually add the milk, whisking constantly to prevent any lumps from forming.
4. Continue to simmer and whisk over medium heat until the sauce is thick, smooth, and creamy, about 10 minutes.
5. The sauce should be thick enough to coat the wooden spoon.
6. Remove from heat and add the nutmeg and salt.
7. Stir until well-combined and check for seasoning.
8. Set aside and allow to cool completely.
