Béchamel
Béchamel sauce is the most likely base of Sally's creamy mushroom sauce. Béchamel is a classic white sauce made from a roux (butter and flour) and milk. It is often used as the base for creamy sauces, which fits the description of Sally's favorite dish. Velouté and Espagnole, while also made from a roux, are typically not creamy; Velouté is made with stock and Espagnole is a brown sauce with tomatoes and a strong meat stock base. Tomate is a tomato-based sauce and would not be the base for a creamy mushroom sauce.
Sally’s favorite dish is grilled chicken with a creamy mushroom sauce, and she makes the dish at least once per week. Which of the five mother sauces is likely the base of Sally’s favorite dish?
