The base of White Sauce
A lot has been said about White Sauce and how to make it ideally. Well, trust me it is really easy. All you need is to bubble some butter with the Maida. As the butter beings to bubble, you can add the cold milk and mix well.
Adding cold milk is the key to a thin and smooth white sauce. If you add room temperature milk or warm milk, your Maida will form lumps and that will be difficult to get rid of.
Season your White sauce with Salt, Pepper, Oregano, and some Garlic Powder. We love our White Sauce with a hint of garlic, so we use ½ tsp of Garlic. You can obviously skip it if you do not like it.
All about The cheese
I have used fresh Parmesan Cheese. Pasta is just incomplete without Parmesan cheese. I know it's difficult to get authentic Parmesan cheese in India. However, I still suggest you look online or in Superstores. Mine was 30 years aged and was so so so good. It gives you authentic Italian flavors which Mozzarella or Processed Cheese doesn't give you.
So, this was all about this Cheesy and Creamy White Sauce Pasta. It's so so good you guys! Equally cheesy and so creamy. If you make this recipe, tag me on Instagram with #twinskirasoi. Also, provide a rating to this recipe and comment on your doubts and opinions below.
