Zutaten

3/4 to 1 cup evaporated milk, or light cream

1 cup processed American cheese

Optional: 1/2 teaspoon mustard powder

1 dash pepper

Anweisungen

In a heavy saucepan, whisk together the cream and mustard. Heat over medium heat until steaming hot; do not boil.

Stir in cheese, heating and stirring until cheese starts to melt.

Remove from heat; stir until all cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth.

Add pepper and paprika, to taste.

The sauce is not as thick as a roux-thickened sauce, but it makes a good topping for vegetables. It will thicken more as it cools slightly. See below for thicker sauce.
