Ingredients:

2 tablespoons canola oil

2 shallots, minced

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

2 cups warmed 8th Continent™ Soymilk Plain

1 bay leaf

white pepper and nutmeg to taste

 
Instructions:

1.  Place a heavy-bottomed medium-sized saucepan over medium heat for about 30 seconds.  Add the oil, shallots, and salt and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, for about 3 minutes, or until the shallot is soft.

2.  Stir constantly as you sprinkle in the flour, then continue to cook, stirring frequently, for another 3 minutes or so.

3.  Switch from the spoon to a whisk and gradually drizzle in the milk, whisking until smooth.  Add the bay leaf, and cook, stirring frequently, until sauce thickens. 

4.  Reduce the heat to very low and taste to correct salt, if necessary.  Season to taste with a little white pepper and nutmeg.  Serve hot.
