  • In French cooking, there are five mother sauces-béchamel, velouté, espagnole, sauce tomato and hollandaise-which are the foundation of many other sauces. Understanding how to prepare these will make you a much better home cook. For those who love mac and cheese and want to start making it from scratch at home, it begins with knowing how to make béchamel. So we went to Kris Morningstar of Terrine in Los Angeles to learn how he transforms butter, flour, milk, salt and nutmeg in the rich white sauce that becomes the base of your macaroni and cheese or perhaps your chicken pot pie.
    Check out this video of Trae Basore of Pearl & Ash making hollandaise and you’re now 2/5th of the way to knowing all your mother sauces. • How to Make the Perfec...

    Hot roux+cold milk=no lumps.

    Just made this. Turned out great! Pretty fool-proof. Thank you!

      How did you know how much milk to add to the béchamel when he didn't say it? Look it up elsewhere?

    I was taught to add a small pinch of cayenne pepper also. It heightens the cheese taste.

    Interesting...I'm not saying I know better than a trained chef, but I've always always been told that you do cold liquid with a hot roux and never hot/hot. Looks like it turned out though!

  • @elizabethlovett4318
    @elizabethlovett4318 2 года назад +3

    How much milk is supposed to go in? He specified the amount of two ingredients but not the rest. Don't like to be left hanging on a recipe.

    How far can you make bechamel sauce in advance. We are starting a pop up BBQ and want to incorporate it with a loaded bake potato. On the day of the pop up. Thank you for any assistance.

    I've always heard you should add cold milk to the hot roux, or it will clump. Or does it not matter?

    • @prickles21

      I do it with starch instead of flour, but I find it mixes better when both are warm/hot. Butter doesn't mix well with cold milk, so you either mix them warm and quick before it thickens or take it off heat and mix while you warm both up.

    Please. Try.

    Is it just more or was that just uncomfortable to listen to?

  • @reubencf2097
    @reubencf2097 7 лет назад +2

    Centering the text--or having it there at all, really--is hella' distracting. Really unnecessary as Chef. Morningstar is saying those same quotations verbatim.

      @macweirdo1 7 лет назад +1

      Yeah, and what happened to the recipe being in the description as well? I don't want to have to scrub through the video to know how to make this, I know how to read.

      seems like ur pretty ignorant to the deaf community and other disabilities that would benefit from the text..... it’s distracting for u, but it’s actually helpful for others... maybe think before u type??

    You need to chill your milk or cream prior to introduction, not heat it up. By chilling the liquid, you will never have lumps. Do not worry about burning your sauce. An unattentive chef that burns the sauce at this step does not belong in the kitchen.
