Notes

You can use the cheeses of your choice for this recipe. Follow the measurements below, and feel free to replace any of the cheeses with your favorites, like pepper jack, monterey jack, white cheddar, mozzarella, provolone, or even Velveeta.

If the cheese sauce tightens up too much before the cheese melts completely, Guy recommends adding a little water to make the sauce smooth.

Ingredients

  1. 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
    6 tablespoons flour
    2 cups whole milk
    1 teaspoon kosher salt
    4 ounces cheddar cheese, grated
    2 ounces smoked gouda cheese, grated
    2 ounces parmesan cheese, grated

Directions

  1. In a medium saucepan, add the butter and set over medium heat. Allow the butter to melt, and then sprinkle with the flour and stir with a whisk.
  2. Once combined, stir for 1 to 2 minutes to cook the flour (but without adding color). Pour in the milk slowly as you whisk to combine. Continue stirring until the mixture thickens up, 3 to 4 minutes.
  3. Add the salt, followed by the cheeses, adding a handful at a time, and whisk until the cheese has melted and the mixture is smooth. Keep warm until ready to use.
