Preparation

Step 1

Melt butter in a large skillet. Add flour and whisk rapidly to avoid lumps. Slowly begin to pouring in milk.
Keep whisking. As sauce begins to come together, remove about 1/4 cup of sauce and pour slowly into egg yolks, beating all the while, (adding a small amount of the heated sauce to yolks tempers the yolks) Add egg mixture into the skillet with sauce while whisking.
Add seasoning and sherry, if you like more of a sherry flavor, add more sherry; the same with the seasonings. Add meat, if using crab, fold in to avoid breaking up the lumps. Heat through, but do not let come to a boil. Serve over puff pastry shells that are cooked according to package directions.
