Interesting.
My bechamel is most definitely brought to the boil, though only for
seconds, it is vital to make it work properly.
And I dont cook the sauce after adding the milk to make it less floury,
if you have added the milk it is too late. I fry butter then add an
equal amount of flour. This roux is then cooked, fried, for at least
two minutes to stop the sauce tasting floury. Then I add the milk bit
by bit. Once all the milk is added, I bring it to the boil for a moment,
to allow the flour to thicken and then serve.
So many bechamels!
