  • For the Roux Melt the butter in a pan, taking care not to gurgle (that's burnt butter). Add the flour and mix until you get a blond earth (in this case you can let it cook until you get a darker color to taste). Roux is liquefied with milk and we obtain the base.
  • For the walnut milk: Pour the milk in a pot over medium heat until the first boil.
  • Add butter, nutmeg, salt and pepper to taste. Stir with a balloon until it thickens and extinguishes the fire.
  • To bind: With the help of a strainer we are going to pour the Roux into the walnut milk, trying to make it fall in a single stream; while with the balloon stir energetically so that no lumps are made.
  • Heat the pot over medium heat and stir until it has a creamy consistency. (continuing to mix).
