If you are focused on the roux flavor making your dish you are focused on the wrong components



Uh what? The roux adds essential flavor to the gumbo. It's the whole reason you cook it so dark.

If it was just a thickener, you'd cook it for 30 seconds and then add it in.

I guess my point is it’s a simple process with two ingredients and no shame in using a jar roux vs making your own from time to time.

If I’m pressed for time I’d rather cut time on the roux and focus on the other conponents.

To each his own I guess.
