Directions:

  3. Place the pasta in a serving bowl and keep warm.
  4. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a medium nonstick skillet.
  5. Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture becomes straw-colored and fragrant, about 45 seconds, then remove from the heat and whisk in the milk.
