Basic White Sauce


I love white sauce, it is versatile and can be used for so many dishes. My grandma always made it with butter, added cheese and poured over diced potatoes, it was so yummy! This variation, while I can't add cheese, is very delicious. I added the below optional seasoning to mine and it reminded me of a creamy onion sauce, it tasted great over zucchini and squash.

Ingredients:
2 tbl Olive oil
2 tbl Rice Flour
Pinch of Salt
1 cup rice milk
1/4 water

Optional: 1/4 tsp minced onion, celery salt, ground mustard, basil

Heat olive oil in pan, add flour and mix. Slowly add milk (1 to 2 tbls at a time) while stirring constantly, a roux will form (looks doughy), stir for a min then add remaining milk and then water. If you would like add in the optional seasonings or your own choice of seasonings. If you want the sauce to be a little thinner add 1 tbl of water at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
