About Bechamelsaus
Béchamel sauce, a cornerstone of French cuisine, is a versatile white sauce that serves as the base for many dishes, such as lasagna, gratins, and creamy soups. Made with butter, flour, and milk, this classic sauce is prepared by whisking together a roux (butter and flour) with heated milk until smooth and thickened. While rich and flavorful, its nutritional profile depends on the ingredients used. Traditional recipes rely on whole milk and butter, which contribute saturated fats, making it high in calories when consumed in excess. For a healthier adaptation, lighter versions can replace whole milk with alternatives like skim or plant-based milk, and reduce butter usage. Béchamel is a source of calcium due to the milk, but moderation is key in maintaining its role in a balanced diet. Its simplicity and adaptability have made it a global favorite for enhancing countless dishes.
