Preparation

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).

TIPS

In the binding stage it depends on the stove where it is cooked and the size of the pot to measure the intensity of the flame. The balloon is recommended because this avoids the formation of lumps and does not cut the sauce when ligating.
