Question about using bottled roux.
Posted on 10/4/20 at 4:28 pm

2 questions....
1. Which one do you recommend? Savoie’s seems a bit too dark...almost burnt to me
2. When using bottled roux, when do you put it in? After sautéing the veggies and before you put in your stock? Or do u put it in after you put in your stock, meat etc...and let come back to a boil?

1. Kary's
2. I've tried several methods. I've settled on adding it to the stock before the veggies.

Kary’s.
I brown the meat, sautéed the Veggies, add the stock, bring to rolling boil, then add stock in one spoonful at a time, stir as usual for a while to mix it.... bring back to boil then simmer for an hour or so

Any jarred roux I use I pour it in the pot and add a lil oil and get it hot hot, then add the veggies to cool it down, then cook the veggies in it 5-10 mins then add the stocks.

After I've put the stock in and brought to a boil. I pulled it all out the jar onto a plate last time to mix and mash it up prior to putting it in. Incorporated into the stock much quicker that way.

Savoie has a light and a dark roux. I use the light one. I add it after I sauté my veggies and before the stock.

1. Kary's wet roux; don't mess up and get the powdered.
2. I sautee the veggies (also brown off the chicken and sausage separately), remove from the pot, then boil the stock and drop the roux in when it hits boiling. Once that is done everything else goes in.

Ragin Kajun is the best brand. I grew up on Savoie's & Kary's, but the last 1-2 years I tried Ragin Kajun and to me it's head and shoulders above the others. But what I like about it is that it's darker, and has more of smoke flavor to it, so if you find Savoie's too dark you make not like it. I cooked a gumbo last weekend with Savoie's, and again this weekend with Ragin Kajun, and the difference is night & day for even my wife to mention it.
Only issue I have with it is a little more greasy. I've only seen it at Rouse's

I use the dark savioes. I cook the meats, plate them, add veggies, then add the roux (it is easier to mix when it’s hot). Add stock and boil for about an hour. Then add meat back for 30-45 mins.
