Near £8 for half a pint of cheese sauce ? :yikes:

Sorry Ozzy, but colour me unimpressed :/

Make up a dry mix at home of grated cheese, dried milk, seasoning and a thickener in a zip bag. Use corn or potato or tapioca flour for the thickener. Stir to a paste with a little cold water, add in the rest of the liquid and bring to a slow boil point stirring all the time.
Cheese sauce by the pint for under a pound.
Beer or wine is optional depending on what you have out with you :)

I know :eek: :eek: I'm a housewife :rolleyes:

Make a roux by introducing wheat flour slowly into melted butter then milk, slowly, then melt grated cheese into it. Allow to thicken over the stove. Simplest and tastiest cheese sauce.

Butter, flour and milk cold in a pan. Slowly stir whilst heating, when it starts to thicken add as much cheese as you like. Garaunteed no lumps. Easier than a roux.

Wife's method so I forget the measurements.

Substitute cheese with other stuff for any white sauce base.

Fondue is not cheese sauce........ (sticking up for the Swiss, here. Seeing as they'd likely stay neutral)

well it is, just made with 50/50 emmental and gruyere and cut with kirsch and a little white wine.

Price is not that surprising if made with authentic ingedients and then freeze dried.
