Gluten-free cheese sauce

Ingredients

1.5 Tbsp butter
500ml milk
Tapioca flour
Potato starch
100 - 200g cheese
All these are rough estimates and the cook/chef should feel it and work their magic to make it just right.

Directions

Melt butter on stove - 4/6 heat. The butter must not bubble - this means that it is burning.
Take the pot off the stove, then turn the stove heat down to 3/6.
Add wooden spoonfuls of a mixture of tapioca and potato starch at a time to the melted butter to get a nice thick consistency, but not so much that it becomes like rocks - it should be like play-dough or a paste. Add more butter or flour mixture to get it right.
Then add a little bit of mustard.
Add milk a little bit at a time, until it gets absorbed into the paste and then add more milk and let it absorb again. Do this until all the milk is in and absorbed. The beginning is the most important. The mixture should get runnier as you add more milk.
Put the pot on the stove at some point while adding the milk - when there is some moisture in the mixture. It’s important not to let it get lumpy - get it consistent before you add the next load of milk. Once all the milk is in stir, without it bubbling or lumping or burning - the stirring will prevent bubbling, lumping or burning.
Add cheese when the sauce thickens bit by bit and keep stirring - and then you’ll have a thick, but runny, gluten-free cheese sauce.
