Gotta use oil to make a proper roux,

quote:

I always skim the top oil after the gumbo has settled.


I always do this as its simmering down, you can get a good bit of the oil out this way.

I was dead set for a long time about using the oven roux without oil. 3-4 years ago I decided to try it and it's awesome.......I've won two gumbo championships with it: One doing a seafood and the other a chicken and andouille.

You do have to whisk the hell out of it as you add it to the boiling stock.

I still use both methods and can't really taste a difference.
