- This herb-scented bechamel sauce is a lighter but luscious alternative to a rich cream sauce. Though thickened with flour, it has the texture of cream, and when cooked the full length of time it should not have a floury taste.
- Always prepare this sauce before making the ravioli so the herb flavors have a chance to infuse.
- In small saucepan, combine lowfat milk, onion, peppercorns, parsley, bay leaf and thyme. Slowly heat over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, till warmed.
- Meanwhile, in medium saucepan, heat butter over medium heat. Stir in flour and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Whisk in hot lowfat milk mix and healthy pinch of salt and bring to simmer. Reduce heat to low and cook, whisking occasionally, till thickened, about 25 min. Add in more salt if needed and nutmeg. Strain through a fine-meshed sieve before using.
