Directions

Make the mix

  • Put everything in a jar or zip-top bag, mix well, and seal it.

To use

  • Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
  • Add the mix and whisk constantly for about 1 minute, until it forms a smooth paste.
  • Whisk in the milk slowly until there are no lumps left.
  • Bring to a gentle boil, whisking all the while.
  • Turn the heat down and simmer for 3 to 4 minutes, whisking now and then, until thickened.
