      I doubled the recipe because I had 100g of brie to use up. Topped up with 80g of vintage tasty and 20g of Parmesan. I also added the tbsp of Dijon mustard and omitted the nutmeg. I didn't need any seasoning and I used the lot over a cauliflower cheese. Definitely using this one again.

      Googled Cheese sauce and found this recipe. It looked terrific and easy. I halved the ingredients. Left out Tasty cheese and added 1 TBS of dijon Mustard , didnt have Plain flour so used Corn Flour. It said use immediately, but I couldnt, so added a tad more milk and temp about 60 degrees for a couple of minutes OMG it was awesome. Partner must have complimented me 1 dozen times. Thanks for the receipe even though I changed it a bit. 🙂

      This turned out beautifully - and so easy just to pour straight from the jug over the lasagna. Thank you! 🙂

      This looks incredible! Is the consistency suitable for mac cheese, or would you thin/thicken it?

        thanks so much! I use it to top lasagna so I think it would be ok.It will thicken upon standing too.

      Can this recipe be made ahead to save time at a dinner party? I note it says to serve immediately. I have an old recipe which includes blue cheese and white wine. Thank you.

        I always try and serve it immediately as it can develop a 'skin' if you let it sit out. You could certainly try making it in advance, however I think it would need a good mix prior to serving.
