  1. Excellent sauce. Perfect with grilled chicken and penne pasta, or steamed or sauted asparagus or any other veggie! Big Hit with the family and it has a million and one uses! LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT!!!!!
     
  2. This was a WONDERFUL white sauce. I am always trying to find a good white sauce to serve with a family favorite of broiled Salmon with caramelized onion and diced fresh cooked beets. We spread sauce on the plate and place the salmon and beets on top and onions on top of the salmon. Very Yummy! My search is over as this was the perfect sauce! I didn't have any chicken bouillon powder, so I used my mini food processor to finely grind 3 Wylers chicken cubes. I also used Sargento's Italian blend shredded cheese - (6 shredded cheeses: Mozzarella, Povolone, Parmesan, Romano, Fontina, & Asiago). Thanks again for such a GREAT recipe.
     
  3. This is my new white sauce recipe. The old one just had to be thrown out after tasting this.
