Equipment

  • 1 large Dutch Oven
  • 1 whisk
  • 1 wooden spoon
  • measuring cups
  • measuring spoons
  • 1 microwave oven

Ingredients
  

  • 12 or 16 oz. pkg. frozen peas
  • 2 tbsp. unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp. gluten free flour (I recommend Bob’s Red Mill)
  • 1 cup half-and-half
  • 1/2 tsp. Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 tsp. Tony's Creole Seasoning or more, to taste

Instructions
 

  • Microwave peas over high heat about 5 minutes.
  • Drain, if necessary.
  • Set aside.
  • Make a white sauce by melting butter in a saucepan.
  • Stir or whisk in gluten free flour, salt, pepper and Tony’s Creole seasoning.
  • Add half-and-half cream and heat until you have a medium white sauce.
  • Add the peas and heat thoroughly.
  • Check seasonings.
  • Add additional salt, pepper or Tony’s Creole Seasoning if desired.

Notes

NOTE: You can use regular flour for this recipe. Adjust the half-and-half to the thickness of the sauce you desire. (More if you want a thinner sauce, less if you want a thicker sauce).
 
NOTE: I recommend Bob's Red Mill brand gluten free flour for this recipe. The GF Crusteaz flour works better for baked goods, not for sauces.
