  1. This is an amazing sauce with fresh ground black pepper. I added just a hint of dried parsley to it too - how my mum makes it. Thanks so much for posting this!
     
  2. My grandmother also swore by this great white sauce. Thanks for posting!
     
  3. You are so right! I make this all the time.This is the "standard" of white sauce. Then it is an easy step if you want cheese sauce, alfredo, pesto white or wonderful cream gravy. Thanks for posting.
