Melt the butter in a saucepan, add the flour and sauté until you smell a pleasant nutty aroma. This should only take a couple minutes. When sautéing, continuously stir the flour so it doesn't burn.

Milk — 400 mlWarm the milk a little and pour it into the flour and butter in a thin stream while stirring continuously.

Add all the cheese to the hot Béchamel sauce, except for a little to sprinkle on the pasta at the end. Stir until the cheese melts completely. Turn off the heat.
