  • What is a roux?
    Here are the simple steps for making a roux from equal parts butter or oil and flour, which will add depth, color and, most importantly, flavor to soup and sauce recipes.
    Step 1: Start the Roux
    Melt the butter over medium-low heat, then add the flour.
    Step 2: Stir the Butter and Flour
    Stir constantly with a wooden spoon in a figure-eight motion for even cooking.
    Step 3: Light Roux
    In 3 to 5 minutes, you'll have a light roux that should puff slightly. Use this for white sauces, like white pepper gravy or a bechamel for mac and cheese.
    Step 4: Brown Roux
    For perfect gravy, you want a brown roux, so continue cooking the roux a little longer. Roux takes time and patience, so just keep stirring. After about 6 or 7 minutes it will smell a little nutty and turn pale brown.
    Step 5: Dark Roux
    If you take it even further, about 8 to 15 minutes or longer, you'll get a dark roux. This is great for Cajun and Creole cooking. The longer the roux cooks, the less thickening power it has in the end.
    Step 6: Let It Cool
    No matter what the color, let it cool slightly before adding a liquid, like stock or milk. Use a whisk to incorporate and simmer to the desired thickness.

    The link has pictures so you can see how it should look. I like to add collard greens to give it some color if it is going to be a light roux. A thick roux has a little more flour.

    This title takes the name of the Lord our God in vain. I didn't thumb you down though, because I don't believe you would do that consciously.
    Help of Christians, guard our land from assault or inward stain,
    Let it be what God has planned, His new Eden where You reign.
