Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
¼ cup unsalted butter
¼ cup all-purpose flour
2 cups whole milk
1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon rubbed sage
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon onion powder
Directions
Melt butter in a 4-quart pot or cast iron skillet over medium heat. Stir in flour until a roux paste forms. Cook, stirring constantly, until flour is a light golden color, 5 to 10 minutes.
Add milk, whisking vigorously. Season with pepper, salt, sage, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Cook until thickened but not boiling, about 5 minutes.
Recipe Tip
You can add 6 ounces of pork or vegetarian sausage if you like. Brown it in Step 1 before making the butter-flour roux.
