+|**Preheat:** °|**Yield:** 1 quart||
+|**Prep:** 0:00|**Wait:** 0:00|**Cook:** 0:00|
+====== Ingredients ======
+  * 2 oz. Clarified Butter
+  * 2 oz. Bread Flour
+  * 1 qt Milk
+  * 1 small Onion, peeled
+  * 1 whole Clove
+  * 1 small Bay Leaf
+  * Salt, to taste
+  * Nutmeg, to taste

+  - Heat butter in a heavy sauce pot over low heat.  Add flour and make a white roux.  Cool roux slightly.
+  - In another saucepan, scald the milk.  Gradually add it to the roux, beating constantly.
+  - Bring sauce to a boil, stirring constantly.  Reduce heat to a simmer.

+  - Adjust consistency with more hot milk, if necessary.
+  - Season **very lightly** with salt, nutmeg and white pepper. Spic flavor should be dominant.
+  - Strain the sauce through china cap lined with cheesecloth or very fine sieve.  Cover and spread with melted butter on the surface to prevent skin from forming.
+  - Keep hot or cool in a water bath for later use.  Can also store in Thermos.
