I am experimenting with eliminating most dairy from my diet. Does with experience making pastitsio have a recommendation for which plant-based milk would work the best for the bechamel?

1) most soy milk has off taste, except the vanilla-flavored ones, which are good for baking and sweet dishes;
2) rice milk and almond milk are watery and neutral;
3) cashew milk is often rich and good in both sweet & savory dishes;
4) oat milk, like rice and almond, is neutral but somewhat more flavorful.
Here is one recipe that is on my to-do list that looks good and uses oat milk.
I would go for that or the cashew milk.
