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.
