So like I just finally can make roux for mac and cheese and like scalloped potatoes with flour without having it taste grainy. I just needed to cook the flour longer before adding milk but I always used cornstarch slurry for things like a spaghetti sauce to thicken it quicker if I didn't have time to let it reduce. But what is the difference is in making a roux Or gravy with cornstarch as opposed to flour? What are the benefits of using flour and what are the benefits of using a slurry?

Do you have to add the cold corn starch slurry to hot liquid? Because i added my slurry to cold liquid and it clumped when heated :(

Typically, I add the slurry to a warm/hot sauce. However, it should still work just fine if you add it to a cool sauce. Quick question : Are you whisking the sauce at the same time as you pour the slurry into it?

Why use the slurry instead of directly adding the cornstarch?

@kamasutraking666 4 ай бұрын

Apparently adding the cornstarch directly creates lumps in the gravy, so people say to make the slurry so the gravy comes out smoother with an even consistency
