Cream cheese

Preparation time:
15 min
Use:
This is a delicious dish with French roots, but one that we welcomed as our own in Cuban cuisine. Enjoy the recipe.
Ingredients:
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 tablespoons of wheat flour
  • 2 ½ cups of milk (you can add a little cooking cream)
  • 4 ounces of cheese
  • shall
  • pepper
  • nutmeg
Instructions:
Combine the butter with the flour and cook over low heat until it begins to turn golden in color. Add the milk little by little until making a thick cream. When the ingredients are well integrated, let it cook for a couple of minutes and add the cheese. Do not stop stirring, you must avoid it sticking to the bottom or forming lumps. When the cheese has melted into the cream, adjust the salt to your taste. Do not add salt before because some cheeses have a very intense flavor and can modify the taste of the recipe. Add the pepper and nutmeg. Remember that one of the tricks of this recipe is low or medium heat. Don't despair, you'll get there!! If you notice that it thickens too much, you can add water or broth to obtain the consistency you like. Enjoy your meal!!
