1 cup water
4 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons flour
4 cups milk
2 teaspoons beef bouillon granules

Instructions

Soak 4.5 ounces dried beef in 1 cup water for about 15 minutes to reduce the saltiness. Drain and discard water.
Tear or chop beef into bite-sized pieces; set aside.
Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a large skillet. Over medium heat, stir in 4 tablespoons flour and continue to cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Gradually add 4 cups milk, a little at a time, stirring constantly with a whisk.
After all milk has been added, add 2 teaspoons beef bouillon granules and cayenne pepper to taste. Simmer over medium low heat, stirring frequently, until thickened to your preference.
Add beef and heat through. Serve over toast, rolls, or biscuits.
