What is Bechamel Sauce?

Bechamel sauce is a creamy white sauce made from butter, flour, and milk. It's often used in dishes like lasagna and macaroni and cheese to add a velvety smoothness.

Ingredients:

  • 2 heads of broccoli

  • 2 tablespoons of butter

  • 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour

  • 1 cup of milk

  • 1 1/2 cups of grated white cheddar cheese

  • Seasoning salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions:

Wash the broccoli heads and cut them into florets. Steam or boil the broccoli until it is tender.


In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour to make a roux. Gradually whisk in the milk until the sauce thickens. Season with seasoning salt and freshly ground black pepper.


Place the cooked broccoli in a baking dish. Pour the bechamel sauce over the broccoli. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top.


Bake the casserole in a 350-degree oven for 25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.


Let the casserole cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your delicious broccoli-bechamel casserole!
