Start by making the béchamel sauce

1. In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium-high heat.
2. When the butter is bubbling nicely, add the flour all at once and stir energetically with a whisk.
3. Lower the heat to medium intensity.
4. Add 1/3 of the milk and stir.
5. Add another 1/3 of the milk and keep stirring.
6. Add the rest of the milk and stir continuously for 10 minutes until the sauce has thickened.
7. Add the ground nutmeg, salt, and white pepper and stir.
8. Set aside.

Assemble the toasts: 

1. Preheat your oven to broil mode.
2. Line the sourdough bread slices onto a parchment-lined oven tray.
3. Spread a thick layer of béchamel sauce overtop of the slices.
4. Sprinkle a generous amount of grated Comté on top of each slice.
5. Broil for 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted, golden, and bubbling away!
6. Serve immediately with a glass of your chosen wine!
