Servings: 4

Ingredients

Unsalted butter
2 tablespoons
All-purpose flour
2 tablespoons
Milk
1 cup
Taleggio cheese
6 ounces, diced
Garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon
Salt
to taste
Black pepper
to taste

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat until bubbly.
  2. Add the all-purpose flour and whisk continuously for about 1 minute to create a roux, ensuring it does not brown.
  3. Gradually pour in the milk while whisking vigorously to avoid lumps forming. Continue whisking until the mixture thickens and comes to a gentle simmer.
  4. Lower the heat to low and add the diced Taleggio cheese. Stir continuously until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce is smooth.
  5. Season the cheese sauce with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning as necessary.
  6. Remove from heat and let the sauce cool slightly before serving to allow it to thicken further.
