Super easy and basic cheese sauce that produces a really delicious and non-Velveeta semi-liquid for all your cheese sauce purposes. Good for casseroles, vegetables, mac and cheese, and even my preferred usage: nachos!
Basic Cheese Sauce
Ingredients
65 g butter
75 g flour
250 g cheese, grated or chopped finely (I used cheddar)
400 ml milk
salt, pepper, paprika, turmeric, other spices, to taste
Directions
1
Melt the butter completely in a saucepan over low heat.
2
Make a roux by adding flour and stirring contentiously until completely combined and forming a paste.
3
Add about half the milk in slowly, making sure to stir continuously to keep the sauce smooth.
4
Add in the cheese, spices, and the rest of the milk slowly.
5
When the cheese is completely melted you can adjust the flour or milk in order to adjust consistency.
