Steps

1

In a medium saucepan melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, until the roux is pale yellow and frothy, about 1 minute.
2

Slowly whisk in the milk and continue to whisk until the sauce thickens and comes to a boil, about 2 to 3 minutes.
3

Reduce the heat to a simmer and season with the salt, pepper and nutmeg. Allow to simmer for 2 to 3 minutes.
4

Stir in the cheese and whisk until melted. If the sauce seems to thick, thin with a little milk.
The sauce is now called a Mornay Sauce.
