1/2 tsp cayenne or red pepper
(*optional - 1 tsp chicken bullion paste or 1 Tbsp beef/pork drippings)

In a medium saucepan melt butter at a medium-high heat. Add flour (*and optional bullion paste/drippings) and whisk together to create a loose paste. Pour in milk, add salt and pepper, whisk to combine. Bring to a sustained rapid boil for approximately 5 minutes, whisking frequently.
