Whole milk never even went away. They just usually label it "Vitamin D" milk instead of "whole milk." That's what I get because 2% fucking sucks.
It's what I get when cooking. I never outright drink milk but I'll be damned if I'm making a roux with skim.
A roux is just fat and flour cooked together. No milk is involved.
Bechamel then.
go on, add it.
My first choice is typically whole milk because I use milk in some recipes and think it makes a difference. Sometimes I have to buy 2% when whole milk has sold out.
