Some folks say add cool roux to hot stock. I've never concerned myself with the roux temp. I just add it slowly to the stock and stir well between each addition.


I think, although I have never personally experienced it, that the problem occurs if the stock is not hot enough. Cold roux, warm stock... no problem. Hot roux, hot stock, no problem.

Cold stock or hot roux and warm stock... might be the problem. That's what it seems like from Google anyway.

I use roux out of the jar. We have gone so far as adding the stock to the jar. Put jar contents into a food processor. The key is to keep stirring when you add the roux to the stock. Anything can clump if you just pour it in and don't pay attention.
