Keto Mornay Sauce
How to Make It
Step 1
Add the butter to a small saucepan. Place the pan over low heat. Cook until the butter is all melted. Stir with a whisk to help the process along.
Step 2
Next, add the arrowroot starch. Whisk well to incorporate. Keep whisking over low heat until the mixture starts to bubble.
Step 3
Immediately pour in the whole milk. Whisk constantly until the mixture thickens. Once it thickens, (it will thicken all at once) season with ¼ tsp kosher salt.
Step 4
Add in the finely diced or shredded cheese. Whisk until it fully melts and incorporates into the sauce. Feel free to use any easy-to-melt cheese in this sauce to add your own flair.
Step 5
Feel free to add black pepper if you would like. Use immediately. Store in an airtight container if using at a later time.
