instant white sauce home-made mix
We all use a basic white sauce as the base for so many recipes. Casseroles, cheese and other sauces, and many more. You can make a thin, medium or thick sauce with this mix. Although I have not yet tried this recipe, I will soon, and wanted to post it here for the convenience of all of the fine cooks at Justapinch. I hope you try and enjoy it!
