As a French American, I love getting back to my roots for cooking. This French inspired vegan Béchamel sauce is perfect for all of your gratin dishes or to top your lasagna. Adding this to my vegan lasagna has made the ingredients needed simpler, as I don’t need to buy as much vegan ricotta and mozzarella to fill an entire dish.
You will need:
1/4 cup butter (I used Earth Balance)
1/4 cup flour
4 cups soy milk
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
Optional:
1/4 cup vegan mozzarella
The process:
Melt butter over medium heat. Stir in flour slowly. Whisk together until smooth. Slowly add 4 cups soy milk. Add vegan mozzarella and whisk until melted. Bring heat to low for 4 minutes, stirring frequently.
Voila! Top your favorite dish and bake until perfection.
