There's a thread about 4 down from yours. There was another one some years ago, I think.

Do you like burned roux, because this is how you get burned roux...

I would bet money you'd burn that roux 9 times out of 10 using that thing

I swear I did not see it.
Was searching for something I came across it.

Not to mention sling that molten roux all over the kitchen after that little device falls on its side.

Nah, just microwave it

Or just scoop it out of the jar.

Takes 20 minutes to make my roux.

Do you have your directions typed up anywhere? I'd like to see it. Mine is quick as well but I always like knowing other ways.

Getting the oil very hot before adding the flour cuts down on the roux time significantly
That is my method for making it a much quicker progress
But be warned before listening to any advice I give, as I think roux leaves a bad after smell when cooking inside

I can whip out a dark roux in 5 minutes. Heat oil on High until smoking, whisk in your flour and don't stop stirring until it's the color you like it. You can turn the burner down some while you stir. Add your cut-up vegetables to cool it of and keep it from burning.

You must not start the clock until the oil is hot enough to start browning the flour. It can take a few minutes just to get the pot/oil hot.

This is what John Folse told me personally as well. That's almost how I do it. I just use med-high heat the whole time. Only takes about 10 min.

Toof, get out your old wooden spoon and stir your roux.
Put that thing down the back of your shirt to scratch your back.
Still leaves a free hand for a drink..

It also looks like a good way to get teflon flakes in your food

Don't get your tongue caught in that thing.

Turn on hood vent and open windows
Heat oil to smoking
Add flour
Keep it moving constantly until it’s the desired color
Usually 15-20 to past brick.
I use a flat wooden spoon, not a whisk.
