BECHAMEL SAUCE

Elaboration

En primer lugar mezclamos la harina con la goma de garrofín, bien mezclada.

Añadimos la cebolla, troceada muy fina, en un cazo y luego la mantequilla. Cuando la mantequilla se haya derretido, añadimos la harina-goma para dispersarla en la mantequilla, y cocinarla hasta que adquiera un color dorado-amarillo. Este paso es importante, para que no nos sepa la bechamel a harina cruda hay que dorarla-tostarla con la mantequilla.

Removemos para integrarlo todo, queda una masa de textura espesa. Un truco para que la bechamel nos quede sin grumos es tamizar la harina para que quede más fina, es decir, la añadimos a la mantequilla desde un colador, dando toquecitos y permitiendo que caiga sobre la mantequilla como un glaseado.

Añadimos la leche poco a poco y sin dejar de remover con las varillas. A medida que coge consistencia vamos añadiendo más leche, sin parar de remover. Así repetimos hasta acabar con la leche.

Añadimos la nuez moscada, la pimienta blanca y la sal. Retiramos ¡y dejamos enfriar!

We can make a much lighter béchamel sauce, with half the flour or less, and therefore with half the butter/ margarine/oil (whatever we use), using locust bean gum.

In the traditional recipe for béchamel sauce, we put the same amount of flour as butter. For ½ L of milk, 2 heaped spoons of flour (50 g) and 50 g of butter are used. In this recipe we propose, we reduce these two ingredients to half, leaving a creamy and fantastic béchamel sauce to make the best recipes. If we are going to make béchamel for croquettes, which is denser, we will use 4 g of locust bean gum, instead of 2-3 g.
