Tips about Lowfat Milk (1% milkfat)


Tip
Making a large amount of bechemel sauce
When making a large amount of bechemel sauce (like a gallon or more), you can use an immersion blender or hand mixer after incorporating the butter, flour, and milk. This makes it much easier than whisking and the bottom will not burn as easily.

I usually use the ratio
1 cup milk: 2 tablespoons butter: 2 tablespoons of flour (28 grams)
