How to Make Instant Magic White Sauce Mix

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  2. Cut in 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Gradually whisk in 4 cups cold whole milk until a smooth paste forms. (Add milk slowly to prevent lumps).
  4. Transfer the mixture to a clean, airtight glass jar. Label and date.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to 3 months. Freeze for longer storage.
  6. To make sauce: In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of the white sauce mix with 1 cup of milk.
  7. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the sauce thickens and is smooth (about 2-3 minutes).
  8. Remove from heat and stir in your favorite cheese, herbs, or spices.
  9. Serve immediately over your favorite dish.
