I dislike using canned soups for casseroles. I've seen many recipes that looking interesting until I read "add a can cream of mushroom/chicken/celery/etc. soup".
Question:
Can I make a basic bechamel but use 1/2 cream and 1/2 stock?
I often make my own stocks and would prefer to use them. I realize that using 'stock' will perhaps reduce the thickness of the liquids in the casserole but I think I can get around that somehow, maybe just reduce ahead of time.
