Veloute’ Sauce

INGREDIENTS

1½ cups chicken or turkey stock

2 Tbsp. unsalted butter

3 Tbsp. all-purpose flour

Salt & pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS

Bring stock to a simmer in a large saucepan. Turn burner to low. In a separate saucepan, melt the butter over low heat and slowly add the flour. Stir for about two minutes. Whisk the simmering stock into the butter/flour mixture while turning the heat to medium. When the stock begins to simmer again, turn heat to low and cook until the sauce thickens. If a skin forms, just skim it away with your spoon. Cook until sauce reaches the desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper. Your Veloute’ is ready to pour over your casserole.
