Basic white sauce is a cinch! Just whisk together butter, flour (equal parts), and milk with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook it until it thickens, and voila - creamy goodness for pasta, veggies, or whatever your heart desires!I'm trying to master the art of making white sauce.

Of course! Mastering white sauce is all about getting the basics just right. Start with equal parts butter and flour to create a rouxโthis forms the base of the sauce. Then, slowly whisk in milk until smooth and creamy, and let it simmer until it thickens to your desired consistency. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg for extra flavor. Voila! You've got yourself a classic white sauce that's perfect for pasta, vegetables, or as a base for other sauces. 
Enjoy experimenting with your homemade white sauce!
