From the Kary's Roux webpage:
Kary’s “Original” Roux is a basic roux made by browning flour slowly until it is a rich chocolate brown. It can be used in many Cajun and Creole dishes such as gumbos, stews, and etouffees.
Gravy is not mentioned once.

That settles it. A fricking jarred roux is the end all be all authority on gravy.

A jarred roux that's been produced successfully years before you ever dreamed of fricking up a gravy.

Skim the fat. Add flour and milk to pan drippings and stir. Salt and pepper to taste.
That's how I was raised.

It's interesting that Paul is from Opelousas, as is Savoie's roux, which is a jarred roux. On their website, Savoie's suggests using roux to "enhance gravies.."
So that's just an Opelousas thing.. not real Cajun.

Not Cajun.. it's Creole

Only someone on TD would try to say gravy is only a Cajun thing.

This is such a gross misinterpretation of what I'm saying, it's as nauseating as what you call gravy..
I'm saying that adding roux to gravy is introducing a creole ingredient, which to Cajuns is not gravy, it's stew..

No more so than the DA that think gumbo is a cajon dish.

And people can Nega-Tiger all they want and say whatever they want.. it's the same argument Italians have when they say, "Is it gravy or sauce?" Most Italians will tell you that "gravy" is the meat drippings and "sauce" is the finished product, whether it includes meat or is just tomato based.

This is you saying that what Cajuns call gravy is in some way relevant to what all gravy is.

An Italian would ask you if you meant sugo. Gravy is italian American.
