    Title: White Sauce
    Categories: Sauces, Vegetarian
    Yield: 1 Batch

    1 Onion
    Celery; a few ribs
    2 Lemon-peel strips;
    - up to 3, thin
    2 Parsley sprigs; up to 3
    1 sm Mace blade
    Salt
    Pepper
    1 1/2 c Milk
    1/2 c Plasmon stock
    - (whey protein powder &
    - water)
    2 1/2 oz Butter
    2 oz Flour

    Cut the onion in slices and put it into a saucepan with the celery
    and 1 oz butter, and let it simmer gently for 10 minutes, taking
    great care that the butter does not become discoloured, then add the
    milk, Plasmon, lemon-peel, parsley, mace, salt, and pepper, and let
    the stock simmer gently (it must not boil) until the vegetables are
    soft, when it should be strained into a basin. Melt the remainder of
    the butter in a saucepan and stir in the flour. As soon as the latter
    is well mixed, pour in the flavoured milk, by degrees, stirring
    quickly all the time with a wooden spoon, so that no lumps may form;
    then place the pan on a slightly hotter part of the stove, so that
    the sauce may boil and thicken satisfactorily. If carefully prepared,
    it will be perfectly smooth, otherwise it should be passed through a
    gravy strainer; if an additional 1/2 oz butter can be spared, it will
    improve the sauce to have it stirred in the last thing before it is
    served.
