Tips

  • Toast the flour to remove its acidic smell.
  • There are three types of roux: white, golden, and dark.
  • Always add the hot milk to the roux, NOT the other way around, to avoid lumps.
  • Add salt, pepper, and nutmeg while boiling the milk.
  • Once the sauce is ready, add seafood, sausages, ground meat, or vegetables to create different pasta dishes.
