Time 20m

Yield Makes about 1 3/4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
2 cups whole milk
Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 cup shredded Gruyere cheese (about 4 ounces)
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat until foamy. Add flour and cook, stirring frequently, until mixture is pale golden and has a slightly nutty aroma, about 5 minutes. Stir in Dijon.
  • Whisking constantly, pour in 2 cups milk and whisk until smooth. Cook over medium-high, whisking often along the bottom of pan, until boiling, about 7 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to maintain a simmer. Add nutmeg and cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens to the consistency of thin yogurt, about 10 minutes. Stir in Gruyere. Season with salt and pepper.

This sauce is a great way to use up leftover cheese. I always have a block of Gruyère in my fridge, so I'm always looking for new ways to use it.

I've tried making this sauce with other cheeses, like cheddar and Parmesan, and they're both good, but Gruyère is definitely my favorite.

This sauce is so easy to make. I just melt some butter in a saucepan, add some flour, and then whisk in some milk. Once the sauce has thickened, I add the Gruyère cheese and stir until it's melted. That's it!
