Are you craving a creamy and flavorful pasta sauce? Besciamella sauce, also known as béchamel, is a classic Italian white sauce that is the perfect addition to pasta dishes, lasagna, and more. While traditional recipes use whole milk, you can still achieve a rich and delicious result by making besciamella sauce with semi-skimmed milk. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you make this delectable sauce:

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups of semi-skimmed milk
  • 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • A pinch of nutmeg (optional)

Instructions:

Follow these simple steps to make besciamella sauce with semi-skimmed milk:

Step 1: Heat the Milk

In a small saucepan, heat the semi-skimmed milk over low heat until warm. Make sure not to boil the milk, as it may scorch.

Step 2: Melt the Butter

In a separate larger saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.

Step 3: Add the Flour

Once the butter has melted, add the all-purpose flour to the saucepan. Stir constantly for about 2 minutes until the mixture becomes smooth and slightly golden.

Step 4: Slowly Add the Warm Milk

Gradually pour the warm semi-skimmed milk into the saucepan with the flour and butter mixture. Stir continuously to avoid any lumps from forming.

Step 5: Season and Simmer

Add salt, pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg (if desired) to the sauce. Stir well to incorporate the seasonings. Reduce the heat to low and simmer the sauce for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 6: Adjust Consistency

If the sauce becomes too thick, you can further thin it by adding a little more warm semi-skimmed milk. If it’s too runny, continue simmering until it reaches the desired consistency.

Step 7: Serve and Enjoy!

Your homemade besciamella sauce with semi-skimmed milk is now ready to be paired with your favorite pasta, lasagna, or any other dish that calls for a delicious creamy sauce. Pour it over your cooked pasta and mix gently until everything is well-coated. Garnish with grated Parmesan cheese, if desired, and indulge in the creamy goodness!

Tip: Besciamella sauce can be refrigerated for up to 3-4 days. If the sauce thickens in the fridge, simply reheat it over low heat while gradually adding a bit of semi-skimmed milk to restore its creamy consistency.

Now you have mastered the art of making besciamella sauce with semi-skimmed milk. Impress your friends and family with your culinary skills and elevate your pasta game with this irresistibly creamy sauce. Buon appetito!
