Creamed Chipped Beef on Toast, also known as “SOS” (a slang term from military kitchens), is a classic American comfort dish made from dried beef in a creamy white sauce, served on toast.

Ingredients

Units Scale

1 (2.5 ounce) jar dried (or chipped) beef
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce (optional)
Dash of pepper
4 slices white or wheat bread

Instructions

  1. Rinse the beef slices under cold water to remove excess salt.
  2. Pat dry and chop into bite-size strips or pieces.
  3. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.
  4. Whisk in the flour to make a roux and cook for about 1 minute (don’t let it brown).
  5. Gradually whisk in the milk, stirring constantly to avoid lumps, for 3 to 5 minutes until the sauce thickens.
  6. Stir in the chopped beef, black pepper and Worcestershire sauce, if using.
  7. Simmer for a few minutes to heat through.
  8. Serve over buttered toast.
