- In a medium saucepan heat the butter over medium-high heat. Add in the flour and cook, stirring constantly, till the roux is pale yellow and frothy, about 1 minute. Don't allow the roux to brown.
- Slowly whisk in the lowfat milk and continue to whisk till the sauce thickens and comes to a boil, about 2 to 3 min. Reduce the heat to a simmer and season with the salt, pepper and nutmeg. Allow to simmer for 2 to 3 min. This is now called a bechamel sauce, and may be used as is to top any number of dishes.
- Stir in the cheese and whisk till melted. If the sauce seems to thick, thin with a little lowfat milk.
- The sauce is now called a Mornay Sauce. Pour over steamed vegetables and serve immediately. If not using right away, cold, cover surface with plastic wrap and chill for several days.
- This recipe yields about 2 c. of sauce.
