Comments: Yields 1 quart. Take a pat of butter and rub it over the surface of the sauce to prevent a skin from forming. Keep sauce warm in a hot-water bath until ready for use, or cool it down in a cold-water bath for later use.
Ingredients:
32 fl ozs milk, whole
Directions:
Prepare the roux by cooking the flour and the butter together, but do not allow it to brown and set aside.

Bring the milk to simmer. Beat the milk into the roux. Bring the sauce to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to simmer. Pin the bay leaf onto the onion with the clove and add to sauce. Simmer for at least 15 minutes (preferably 30 minutes).

Skim the surface and stir occasionally. Season lightly with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Strain through cheesecloth.
