It's the closest thing to an actual secret ingredient that makes all your food amazing. Save the rind to toss into soup or pasta sauce later. They don't even taste like the same cheese. Parmesan is the name for American knock-offs Parmigiano-Reggiano is the real deal with the D.O.P seal imported from Italy. As such, it will not melt as well and will leave you with an over-thick and lumpy sauce.Īs often as possible, use cheese sold as Parmigiano-Reggiano, not Parmesan. Pre-grated cheese is covered in starch to prevent clumping. Serve immediately.Īlways grate your own cheese. Pour sauce over pasta, top with crumbs, and bake 15 minutes until browned on top and bubbling. I usually completely remove the sauce from the heat at this point. It's important not to overcook here, as it will make the finished product grainy.

Make sure to stir constantly and completely incorporate before adding the next addition. Remove bay leaves from milk and add to the roux 1/4 cup at a time. Add the flour and stir constantly, making sure to break up any lumps, until the mixture starts to turn a light brown and smell nutty. Saute the shallot until it is fragrant and tender.
