  1. 1

    Step 1

    Melt the butter in a pan. Add flour and stir until smooth. Cook for 2 minutes to remove the floury taste.

    Gradually pour in the milk, stirring. Bring to a boil and cook for 2 minutes until the sauce thickens.

    Reduce the heat. Add grated cheese, Dijon mustard, salt and white pepper. Stir until the cheese is completely melted. Cover with a lid and keep warm.

    Step 3

    Bring water to a boil in a saucepan to a depth of 3 cm with the addition of vinegar. Reduce the heat to minimum.

    Break each egg into a cold cup. Holding the cup close to the water surface, carefully pour the egg into the water. Repeat with the second egg.

    Cook for 3–5 minutes until the yolks become thick. Remove the eggs with a slotted spoon.
