Bechamel Sauce is a white sauce that we can use in various baking recipes with pasta, meats, and vegetables. This Bechamel Sauce Recipe for Lasagna is a basic bechamel recipe that you also can use in other baking dishes.
For preparing 250 g white bechamel Sauce, we need these ingredients:
250 ml of warm milk
25 g unsalted butter
25 g (1tbsp) all-purpose flour
Salt, white ground pepper, ground Muscat nuts
Directions
In a deep pan, in medium heat, add the butter to melt. Low the heat, add the flour, and start mix until golden.
Remove the pan from the heat and add the warm milk mixing the ingredients. The milk must not be hot.
Start mixing fast helping from a beater until flour and milk create a homogenous liquid, without small grains. Transfer the pan to medium heat, and continue mix until the bechamel liquid gets thick. Add salt, white pepper, or Muscat nuts to season the bechamel sauce.
Transfer the bechamel sauce in a container and let cool. Use a pellicle to cover the bechamel container avoiding creating a crust on top.
After cooling, transfer the bechamel sauce in the refrigerator, conserving for 2-3 days in there.
If you prefer more coloring and taste, you can add an egg yolk to the bechamel sauce, and cook for another minute before removing from the heat.
You can use this sauce with baked pasta, lasagne, or other baking dishes recipes.
