Basic Cheese Sauce is the most versatile of cheese sauces. It can be used for gratin dishes, and as a pouring sauce over fish and vegetables.
-
For the Thin Cheese Sauce, use 2 tablespoons of butter and 2 tablespoons of flour in place of the quantities used in our Basic Cheese Sauce. Thin Cheese Sauce is a useful base for pasta sauce and is great in lasagna.
-
For the Rich Cheese Sauce, add half a cup of cream to Basic Cheese Sauce. This is a more decadent version of our Basic Cheese Sauce and is delicious in special occasion dishes such as filled (or stuffed) crêpes and seafood.
