    Great tips!!
    Just wondering what i can use besides flour to make a roux ?? Will a gluten free flour work well ??And can arrowroot be used in place of cornstarch to make a silky slurry?
    I would like to make this for my family this Christmas, but my sister has celiac disease and her daughter needs to not have any gluten.
    And if they can be substituted, would the ratios/technique need to be altered??
    Hope you can reply👐
    Many thx☺️

    Using a dry or wet baked roux is so much faster and easier! It's already cooked so you just sprinkle it in a bit at a time until your sauce is the right thickness. If you want glossy, add a pat of butter right before serving.

    A wet baked roux (meaning it has some type of oil incorporated; I use ghee) will stay good at room temp for 4 months and a year in the fridge and forever in the freezer. It's cooked longer so there is ZERO flour flavor. You cook a batch and have it on hand whenever needed. It cuts down on the fuss! I use Chef Jean-Pierre's recipe for the wet baked roux. You can find it here on YouTube. 😊

    Honest question…I’ve only made a roux on one occasion. Any reason why you went with a blonde roux, rather than a brown or dark brown roux…just for color’s sake. I would think it would make a more attractive colored gravy. Just curious.

    Arrgh no stock??? Can o' beer, especially if you are plotting a flour rue. Cast iron dutch oven, especially if it's hot out rather than running the oven. And buy those manager's special roasts, beef keeps for months in the freezer.
