Bechemel Sauce

A simple way to make a really great white sauce. Now, why didn't I think of that ?

INGREDIENTS
2    tablespoons butter
2    tablespoons flour
1    and 1/4 cups milk, heated
1    pinch of salt

METHOD
Melt the butter over medium-low heat in a heavy-duty sauce pan. Ad the flour and cook, stirring constantly, until the paste begins to bubble a bit, about 2 minutes. Do not let it brown. Add the salt and warm milk and continue to stir as the sauce thickens. Bring to a boil then lower the heat. Continue to cook, stirring, for 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove from the heat and use immediately.
