Put butter in a small pot. Melt the butter on low heat. Turn off the heat and add flour, stir well until smooth. After smooth, heat it on low-medium heat. After it starts to bubble, stir well for 2 mins.

Add the milk in 4-5 parts. Knead well for 1-2 mins at 1st addition on low-medium heat. From the next addition, stir well until smooth on medium heat, then stir for another minute. After mixing all the milk, mix with a whisk to make it smoother.

Add chicken broth soup, heat it until bubbling up lightly while stirring. Use a spatula to scrape the edge and bottom off, fold into the sauce, and stir. Strain it (omittable). Remove the bay leaf. Seal it with plastic wrap to prevent drying, and let it cool. It’s more delicious if you let it sit in a fridge overnight.

Easy Creamy Croque Monsieur-style Toast Easy Creamy Croque Monsieur-style Toast
I love the croque monsieur served at a French style cafe I frequent. The regular way is to sandwich the filling between two slices of bread and to bake it, but you can enjoy the flavor with a version using just one slice of bread topped with the filling.-Adjust the amount of time it takes to cook the bechamel sauce depending on your microwave oven.-If you add a little nutmeg to your sauce, it really tastes like the type of thing you can get at a cafe.

Focaccia Croque Monsieur Bread Focaccia Croque Monsieur Bread
I like soft focaccia, so I always add skim milk powder to the dough. I thought that if I added cheese too it would be even more delicious and tried it out.If you like rich food, use 2 slices of cheese per piece. You can also try adding lots of bechamel sauce. But make sure you can seal the doug. If the sauce is too runny, it's hard to seal the dough, so it should be stiff enough that it doesn't run out. Recipe by Pu-kosan -

Easy Croque-Monsieur Style French Toast Easy Croque-Monsieur Style French Toast
French toast can be cooked in a variety of ways. I made my usual croque-monsieur using French toast.I recommend using both hands, not utensils, such as chopsticks, in the steps from soaking the bread in the egg mixture to toasting in a frying pan, since the bread becomes heavy after absorbing the egg mixture. For 1 serving. Recipe by Kotobukisan -
