  • 1 tsp. sea salt
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup unbleached flour
  • 1/4 tsp. dry mustard
  • 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, grated (divide into 1 cup measurements)

Instructions

  1. Boil potatoes with 1 teaspoon salt added to the water until they are tender.
  2. Drain potatoes and place into a greased casserole dish.
  3. Make the white sauce, melt the butter in a 2-quart saucepan.
  4. Add the flour and mustard; stir until flour mixture is bubbling.
  5. Pour in milk.
  6. Stir constantly over medium to medium-high heat until it comes to a boil.
  7. Continue stirring and boil for 1 minute.
  8. Remove from heat and gradually stir in 1 cup of shredded sharp cheddar cheese.
  9. Pour sauce over cooked potatoes and toss to coat all potatoes.
  10. Top with the remaining shredded cheese.
