Awesome Sauce

Melt together in a medium saucepan.


4 TBSP butter, melted
3 TBSP all-purpose flour

Stir until very smooth. 

Slowly add 1 cup of warm milk, stirring constantly.

In a frying pan, melt 1 tsp butter. Add:
4 cloves garlic, chopped
½ of a sweet onion, chopped small


When they're partway cooked, add:
8 - 10 medium size mushrooms, chopped fairly small. Add more butter if needed.
Fry until everything is very soft.

When the saucepan mixture is warm, add the contents of the frying pan, and:
2 tsp low-sodium chicken bouillon paste
1½ cup shredded parmesan cheese (a little at a time)
1 teaspoon ground sage
1 teaspoon fresh thyme

½ tsp white pepper
Freshly ground pepper

The sauce will be thick, really thick. It will become thicker once it's cooled. 
It is really good for Chicken Pasta Mornay.
