(Note: Don't try to do this too fast, or the milk will burn on the bottom of the pot.)
• In a separate small bowl, mix the flour with the remaining milk, and add to the pot slowly, stirring constantly, so that the flour does not clump. (Note: Make sure you get out all the lumps because they will not cook out on their own.)
