Recipes Tips !

Stir-fry the bechamel sauce over low heat.

A bechamel sauce is a basic sauce needed in making white cream. Wheat flour is added to butter and stir-fried so that it tastes savory. It plays a key role in creating sauce density. Do not stir-fry the bechamel sauce over high heat. Otherwise, wheat flour will get scorched. Cook it over low heat.
