This was creamy and mild -- very nice as a side to roast beef. And it was extremely simple to make from pantry basics. But I can't rate it any higher because of that cup of butter. I could not, in good conscience, feed my family half a pound of butter in one sitting so I reduced it to a half-stick. Since that meant there wasn't enough butter left in the bottom to make the roux I shook the flour into the milk instead.
