I've been meaning to make peas with a type of white sauce. What sauce would be best suited? I'll be serving it as a side for pan seared pork.
Also general questions that don't deserve their own thread thread.

Cheese sauce. Sharp cheddar, not American.
A simple stock based white roux should work fine.

Midwest farmhouse version would be fresh garden peas and freshly dug potatoes in a cream sauce made with butter, flour, milk, salt and pepper. It's only worth bothering with if you have really fresh ingredients. Te dish is totally boring made from supermarket ingredients.

Veloute? I make one for gnocchi with peas that may work, but never tried it as a stand alone: mince pancetta or prosciutto, sauté until crispy, add minced shallots and sauté until soft, add dry white wine or dry vermouth and rapidly reduce, add cream, reduce until thickened, add parmesan or Asiago. Sometimes I'll use feta or blue or goat cheese for variety (weekly meal).

if you've settled on a sauce that just HAS to look like cum, I'd recommend bread sauce. looks bad, tastes heavenly.

What you described isn't a veloute.
More like a mornay.

That sounds delicious, definitly gonna trying it out. Would guanciale work? I happen to have a kilo here right now.

Mornay is a bechemel with cheese you dolt.
>>8742223
Nah, it's cheese and cream mixed together like a Carbonara.
