Gruyere Cheese Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease an 8x10-inch oval casserole dish.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add cauliflower florets and boil for 3 minutes. Drain.
• Cut the florets into slices and arrange in the baking dish. Scatter red bell pepper pieces on top.
• Melt butter in a large saucepan. Add flour and whisk to create a paste. Pour in half-and-half, stirring to incorporate. Add 3/4 cup Gruyère cheese and truffle salt. Pour cheese sauce over the cauliflower. Sprinkle remaining cheese and panko on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until top is lightly browned, about 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat until foamy. Add flour and cook, stirring frequently, until mixture is pale golden and has a slightly nutty aroma, about 5 minutes. Stir in Dijon.
• Whisking constantly, pour in 2 cups milk and whisk until smooth. Cook over medium-high, whisking often along the bottom of pan, until boiling, about 7 minutes.
• Reduce heat to maintain a simmer. Add nutmeg and cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens to the consistency of thin yogurt, about 10 minutes. Stir in Gruyere. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Melt butter in small saucepan over medium-low heat.
• Add flour; stir 2 minutes (do not brown).
• Gradually whisk in 1 1/2 cups milk.
• Increase heat to high; bring to boil, then reduce heat to medium and simmer until mixture is thickened, stirring constantly, about 4 minutes.
• Remove from heat.
• Add cheese, stir until melted.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Do Ahead: This cheese sauce can be made 2 hours ahead.
• Let stand at room temperature.
• Rewarm before using, adding more milk if sauce is too thick.

Steps:

• In the medium pot, bring the cream to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Whisk in the mustard. Stir in the Gruyère, Parmesan and garlic and cook until the cheeses are melted and combined and the sauce has a smooth consistency, 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Serve warm.
