Cheese Sauce
Read my review of this recipe.
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1 cup chicken stock, milk, or combo
- 2 cups cheddar or jack cheese, shredded
- 8 ounces Velveeta, cubed
Directions:
Melt the butter over medium-low heat in a thick-bottomed saucepan. Just as the foam subsides, sprinkle in the flour, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon or whisk to prevent lumps. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes to remove the starchy taste from the flour; don’t allow it to brown. Gradually whisk in the chicken stock or milk and simmer for 8 minutes to thicken. Once you have a good base, fold in cheese; mix until completely melted into a sauce.
Makes about 2 cups.
