Method
- Make a mornay sauce by cooking the butter and flour in a saucepot for 2-3 minutes, or until you notice a nutty aroma.
- Slowly add heavy cream, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. When it bubbles, whisk in the cheese. Add white pepper and salt to taste.
- Remove from heat and set aside until ready to use.
