How to make it

  • Make a basic cream sauce by melting margarine over moderate heat.
  • Stir in flour; keep stirring until flour and margarine are combined and smooth.
  • Remove from heat and add the chicken broth and milk, a little at a time, stirring to keep lump-free.
  • Return to heat. Bring sauce to a gentle boil and cook, stirring constantly, until it thickens.
  • Taste and adjust seasonings
  • Can be varied by using vegetable broth, saut�ed diced celery, celery seed, or saut�ed diced mushrooms.
