Steps:
- In a small saucepan, heat the milk until steaming, but don't let it boil or form a skin.
- While the milk heats, melt the butter in a heavy 2-quart saucepan on low heat.
- Add the flour and whisk to form a smooth roux.
- Continue to cook and whisk for 3 to 4 minutes to thoroughly cook the flour.
- Increase heat to medium, and whisk the hot milk into the roux in a thin, steady stream.
- Continue to cook until the sauce is smooth and thickened slightly.
- Don't stop whisking, since white sauces can burn in an instant.
- Lower the heat, add the cheesed, mustard, and sherry, and whisk until the cheeses melt.
- Using a double boiler or a heat diffuser, gently cook on very low heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add salt to taste.
- Enjoy!

- Pour the milk in a large saucepan, place it over medium heat, and let it warm until you see small bubbles forming along the edge of the pan.
- Sprinkle the flour over the bubbling butter and stir constantly until a thick paste, or roux, forms. It may become quite thick and almost paste-like. This is okay. And if it doesn’t become crazy thick, that’s okay, too. Expect this to take 1 to 2 minutes.
- Constantly whisking, slowly pour the warm milk into the flour and butter mixture in a steady stream. Continue cooking and whisking almost constantly until the mixture thickens considerably, about 5 minutes. It should be thick but still spreadable and perhaps even pourable.
