I am sure you know that the original Alfredo is made with only two ingredients. Heavy cream and Parmesan cheese. If only grandkids new how heavenly it is.
White sauce is just the exact same as Béchamel Sauce. Just a different name according to where you live. Up north it is call White Sauce. Down South, it is called Sausage Gravy. Or White Gravy.
No matter what you call any of the food sauces or additives, they are all absolutely a delight to eat! YUM!
Well, white gravy and sausage gravy are fundamentally the same, but usually made with a different fat. But they are both, at the core, a béchamel.
I still don't know why I can't find white gravy in jars in Texas.
I can find powdered mixes, but they aren't really any less work than making white gravy from scratch.
