    List of Ingredients




    Making a Southern Roux from David

    Recipe




    Two ingredients-flour and oil-make roux. The slow-cooked blend
    contributes a rich depth of flavor to Creole and Cajun cookery and is
    the heart of every real gumbo. Plan to spend from 30-40 minutes
    whisking the precious thickener depending on the size of your pot, the
    amount of oil and the temperature. You can't rush that smoky, nutty
    flavor. If the heat is too high, the roux will burn easily.

    Store roux in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two
    weeks.

    NOTE: If you should burn the roux a little, don't worry some people
    like myself enjoy the extra flavor `
