Making a gumbo today and did not feel like messing with the roux and picked this up at Fresh Market.

Anyone try this? Looks dark!

I've started grinding my own wheat for the flour I use. The store bought flour loses so much flavor from the lighting they use.

I’ve read about it inthe Acadiana Table website. I think that’s the name of it. Can you take a pic of the ingredients? That’s what I was wondering.

Sure and I have never used a jarred roux before. Looks like the best way to use this to to bring water/stock to a boil and add it 2tb per 4 cups.

Thanks. Some have a mix of oils, but this one only has one. None of them use oils I use.

You can warm the roux in a skillet and sauté your veggies in it if you like.

Low low heat. Scoop as much as you need. It settles out just like a regular roux.

Uh, so y’all suggest using it like regular roux and warm it up and throw the trinity in. Seems Ike there are some different ways. Saw one person take tablespoons out and add warm water and mix until it smooths out too.

I use it the same way I use roux if I pull it out the freezer.

I usually make a huge roux then separate out different servings.

Warm it up slow and go from there.

All for today?

I’ve got chicken Adobe and enchiladas going. That should hold me over until Monday morning. Lazy Sundays in the kitchen are the best.

Low freezer, no time for cooking during the week.

I never heard of "roux for the beans." I assume it thickens the beans good. Does it alter the flavor of the red beans any?
