In a medium sized saucepan, melt butter over low heat, add flour and cook over low heat 1-2 minutes, do not brown. Remove saucepan from heat, add SENSATIONAL SOY Smooth Original and whisk quickly. Return saucepan to heat and continue cooking 4-5 minutes until sauce thickens, whisking often. Strain through a fine sieve if desired. Season with salt and pepper.
Note: Béchamel sauce is a basic in a lot of recipes. One cup of sauce can be combined with 2 cups of solids such as vegetables, seafood and chicken, just to name a few. It is a great alternative in pasta recipes that call for cream. The sauce can be made ahead, covered with a piece of plastic wrap and refrigerated for up to 2 days.
