Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat until it starts to foam.
-
Add the gluten-free flour to the melted butter, whisking constantly to create a smooth paste. Cook this roux for about 2 minutes, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
-
Slowly pour in the broth while whisking continuously to prevent lumps from forming. Allow the mixture to come to a gentle simmer.
-
Stir in the milk and continue to cook the soup base over low heat, stirring occasionally, until it thickens to your desired consistency. This usually takes about 10-15 minutes.
-
Season the cream soup base with salt and pepper, adjusting the flavors according to your preference. Feel free to add herbs or spices at this stage for extra flavor.
