I had no idea it was called Béchamel, lol. I always referred to it all as roux as you really just add more to the base sauce. The more you know...

Roux is flour and butter. Bechamel is a roux + milk. Mornay is a bechamel + cheese.

Bechamel traditionally has a cloute (onion studded with cloves and bay leaves) and nutmeg added to it. But ain't nobody got time for that

Béchamel and roux are different, but only by an ingredient
