Lunch was inspired by my morning walk along the Indiana roadside.
Make medium white sauce by melting 3 tbsp. butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add 3 tbsp. flour and blend together, then add 1-1/2 c. milk. Cook until thick and smooth, stirring constantly. (This will take
forever unless you up the heat a little as you go. Just be careful not to scorch or scald the sauce. You can get away with working on the eggs while this is thickening, just give the pan a stir frequently.)
Hard boil six eggs, then strip off the shells and cut eggs in half, dividing the yolk from the whites. Coursely chop up the egg whites and add them to the white sauce. Spoon the sauce over a piece of toast. Press the yolks through a sieve (I use a garlic press), then sprinkle the yolk over the white sauce mixture. Eat it while it's hot!
(This made enough for one pregnant lady, one hungry husband, and one visiting sister-in-law.)
