My question to you this week is do you love macaroni and cheese? Alfredo sauce? Cheese and its gloriousness in general? Well then let me tell you how to make the most silky cheese sauce from scratch at home.
Step 1 – Select your cheese. This step is crucial depending on what you are making and who it is for will determine the cheese you select.
Step 2 – Make a roux. Take a half a stick of butter and melt it in a pot. Next add about 1/4 cup of flour or more if needed and cook the flour with the melted butter. After about 2 or 3 minutes of cooking slowly, start to whisk in about 2 cups of milk (heavy cream works also). Add salt and pepper. Next add in your selected shredded cheese and gently whisk until combined. If you want to loosen your sauce, just add more milk.
Step3 – Pour over your dish or mix it into cooked pasta.
Step 4 – Completely indulge in amazingly ooey gooey cheese sauce.
