Method

It takes steps in 20 min
1 Béchamel - step 1
Place a small pot with milk, salt, and nutmeg on the stove, and heat over medium heat without bringing it to a boil
2 Béchamel - step 2
In another large pot, add the butter, let it melt, and add the flour
3 Béchamel - step 3
Cook the flour and butter mixture over medium heat until it turns slightly golden, then reduce the heat to low
4 Béchamel - step 4
Gradually add the hot milk to the pot with the flour and butter, stirring continuously with a whisk until it thickens

The cost is almost negligible. Milk, butter, and flour are certainly not expensive ingredients; a single portion costs much less than one euro

Health

It is not a light condiment, but for some recipes, such as lasagna, it is indispensable. Be brave and don't ask for seconds
