| Ingredients | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Dried Chipped Beef | 4 ounces |
| Unsalted Butter | 1/4 cup |
| All-Purpose Flour | 1/4 cup |
| Whole Milk | 2 cups |
| Black Pepper | 1/4 teaspoon |
| Worcestershire Sauce | 1 teaspoon |
| Toast (slices) | As needed |
| Fresh Parsley (chopped, optional) | For garnish |
Instructions
- Rinse the dried chipped beef under cold water to remove excess saltiness. Pat it dry with paper towels, then chop it into small pieces.
- In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.
- Add the chopped dried chipped beef to the melted butter, and cook for 1-2 minutes until lightly browned and fragrant.
- Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the beef and butter, stirring continuously to create a smooth paste (roux).
- Gradually pour the whole milk into the saucepan, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.
- Season the mixture with black pepper and Worcestershire sauce, giving it a delightful savory flavor.
- Continue cooking the sauce over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it thickens to a creamy consistency.
- Toast slices of bread until golden brown and buttery.
- To serve, place the toasted slices on a plate and generously spoon the creamed chipped beef over the top.
- For an optional finishing touch, garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
