We have a version, “biscuit gravy” and often the base is bacon or sausage grease with the bits still left in the pan and it’s milk gravy too. The other without milk is “water gravy” and people don’t like that so much but a “brown gravy” similar to like how AB just made with taking time and letting it get to flavour is just as good. The tasteless ones comes from what I call raw gravy lol when it’s not cooked and you can still taste the flour or cornstarch

Adding butter makes this a Creole gumbo. I like a chocolate to dark chocolate colored Cajun roux. Recommend using a long nonstick spatula instead of the wood, you’ll have more control in the tall pot. Also, putting all the flour in at once is fine as long as you have an equal amount of fat already in the pot (adding the butter later is why the flour had to be added in increments to prevent both the flour and the butter from burning.). I usually have 2 cups of lard/vegetable oil and 2 cups of flour, sifted, and stir on medium heat for about 20 minutes. Since roux is so intensive, I usually make two pots, one to eat and one to share with neighbors and family…so 4 cups lard/oil and 4 cups flour…prepared in two batches. My trinity goes directly into the roux when the roux is at the right color. If chicken sausage gumbo, the sausage is the last ingredient to go in when I have about an hour left on the gumbo. Also, when skimming all the fat that floats to the top, keep that and add cajun seasoning and file powder and use to pan fry seafood (shrimp is the best cooked in gumbo oil)

That is a great looking roux. I'd call that caramel color. For gumbo I personally prefer a chocolate colored roux. I like mine nuttier and smoky, but my family likes the caramel roux better, so that's what I usually do. Do you put your trinity directly into your roux to start your gumbo too?

This is the best way to make roux. I make a lot, double the recipe and divided into two. Place it in a container and refrigerate. So, the next time you make smother chicken, pork chop, chicken, shrimp or crawfish. You want have to make a roux again. Your Ettoffee sauce will be ready to make. Ettoffee meaning: To Smother. That's how you make brown gravy.

Hey 🆎 I make a roux for macaroni and cheese sometimes. I use butter & flour then add milk or half & half. Once the liquid starts to thicken I add my cheeses. It does make a great cheese sauce for anything you want cheese on. I think my Granny made her roux like a peanut butter color for her gumbo. I just remember it being delicious and belly-warming 😊.

@DarkPrince617 2 жыл бұрын

Respectfully, this vid was cut from the "Seafood Gumbo" vid where it was first done incorrectly. At the 1:40 mark, you clearly see the roux isn't liquidy at all and is clumpy. That's a direct result of not having enough oil. A roux is equal parts oil and flour. When both are combined correctly, it won't ever get that clumpy. Butter can be used instead of oil, depending on the dish you're making. Combining oil and butter is not something I subscribe to for making gumbo.
