Ingredients
- 240 grams All-purpose flour
- 120 grams Powdered milk
- 60 grams Unsweetened powdered cream (optional)
- 120 grams Unsalted butter
- 15 grams Salt
- 5 grams Ground white pepper
- 2 grams Ground nutmeg (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Place the unsalted butter in a saucepan over low heat and melt completely, being careful not to let it brown.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, powdered milk, optional powdered cream, salt, ground white pepper, and optional ground nutmeg.
Step 3
Slowly drizzle the melted butter into the dry ingredients, stirring constantly with a whisk to ensure the mixture is evenly coated. The goal is a crumbly, sand-like texture.
Step 4
Spread the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to cool completely. This prevents clumping during storage.
Step 5
Once cooled, transfer the mix to an airtight container or jar. Store in a cool, dry place for up to 3 months.
Step 6
To prepare the white sauce, whisk together 4 tablespoons of the mix with 1 cup of cold water or milk in a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened and smooth (approximately 5 minutes). Adjust the seasoning as needed.
