Creamed Peas

I serve these with Salmon Patties with Green Onion and Red Peppers. (The story behind the combination is on the other post.) Caroline loves them which is saying something since she currently doesn’t like any vegetable except cucumbers!

I make these before I make the salmon patties and keep them warm in a small crockpot. They hold very well while you are making the rest of the meal.

Creamed Peas

Ingredients

• 2 Tbsp butter
• 2 Tbsp flour
• Dash of salt
• 1 and 1/2 cups of milk

3. Whisk in milk and salt.
4. Stir constantly until it comes to a boil.
5. Allow to boil another thirty seconds to one minute to desired consistency.
6. Pour sauce over peas and gently combine.

Enjoy!

About Sallie’s Favorite Comfort Food Recipes

These are recipes I have enjoyed throughout my life – as a child, as a young woman, and now as a wife and mom. I am sharing them because they taste good and are relatively easy to make. They only require basic ingredients that most women will be able to easily find and afford. I encourage you to use the best ingredients your can afford for the best results. It really does make a tremendous difference in the quality of the final product.

For example, I only use King Arthur Unbleached Flour for regular baking. After some inexplicable failed results at long-time favorites, I no longer use store brand butter for any baking. I only use Land O’Lakes. The difference is substantial and can mean the difference between a high quality end product and a mess.
