Melt 3 tb butter in saucepan. Whisk in flour (whole wheat pastry
flour may be used. It'll give a heartier flavor.) and cook whisking
for 2 minutes. Whisk in warmed milk; lower heat, and continue to stir
frequently as it cooks until smooth and thick. It's best to cook
sauce either in a double boiler or with a heat-absorbent pad under
the pot. Add remaining ingredients. Serve very hot. Very good when
served over steamed vegetables or omelettes.
