Name: Grandma's Basic White Sauce
Ingredients: 1 tb Butter*; 1 sm Chopped shallot (about 2 tb); 2 tb Flour; 1 1/2 c Warm milk*; 1/4 ts Salt; 1/8 ts White pepper; 1/8 ts Fresh ground nutmeg*

Why is salvation all of God’s grace and not based in any part on our own works? 1. Because you and I have sin that God will never accept in His holy presence. 2. Because the standard of righteousness required is God Himself. 3. Because, Ephesians 2:9, God does not want us to boast, but rather saves us, “So that in the ages to come He might show the surpassing riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus” (Ephesians 2:7). 4. Because a love relationship is never based on the works one gives another. 5. Because we will forever wonder if we did enough good deeds. 6. And because if we could save ourselves based on our works, there would have been no reason to send Jesus Christ.

INGREDIENTS

1	tb	Butter*
1	sm	Chopped shallot (about 2 tb)
2	tb	Flour
1 1/2	c	Warm milk*
1/4	ts	Salt
1/8	ts	White pepper
1/8	ts	Fresh ground nutmeg*

INSTRUCTIONS

In a medium sauce pan melt the butter over moderate heat. Add the shallot
and saute, stirring, for 3 minutes. Lower the heat, add the flour, and cook
stirring, 3 minutes more or until the roux is golden and bubbling. Pour in
the milk and bring it to a simmer, stirring constantly, for 5 minutes or
until thickened and smooth. Add the salt, pepper and nutmeg. The recipe
makes a scant 2 cup, but easily doubles if you need more. *We substitute
unsalted butter (or Weight Watchers low-fat substitute) for Grandma's
butter, and use skim milk or 2% lowfat instead of the whole milk she used,
with no trouble at all.
