I’m dumb because I can make a perfect roux with my eyes closed? F I had jarred roux (which I don’t), I probably would have used it.
Why are people so scared to make a roux?


No. You are dumb to believe that homemade roux is superior to jar roux. Same shite. One is already made.

Unless you change the fat to duck fat, lard, bacon grease etc, flour and oil is flour and oil.

I make plenty of roux but I'll use a jarred if it's there.

My quick is jarred roux, de-boned rotisserie chicken, store bought trinity, sausage, tasso and chicken broth.

I agree. I have made plenty of roux in my lifetime. I can promise you no one can tell if I made
Homemade roux or used Karys dry jar roux unless they witnessed the cook.

Yes I was born and raise in south Louisiana, I can make a roux from scratch and don’t use tomatoes in gumbo or jambalaya.

Its just too easy to use a roux that someone has already made and put in a jar.
