I added the roux to the stock when both were very hot


1. make roux with whisk
2. add vegetables and cook down
3. add cold stock, a cup at a time. be sure to stir the roux stock mix to fully incorporate the liquid before you add more stock
4. bring to a boil to fully thicken

if you do the roux seperate[in a black iron skillet] you need to add it in the stock once the stock is at a rolling boil...

Thanks. I'll try this next time. FWIW, I did add the vegetables to the roux and cooked them down. Maybe the problem is that my stock was hot when I added the roux and I added it all at once.
