If anyone does this please explain the way you do it .
Thanks , Bob
its all in your whip game...whip game must be proper..lol..whisk and dont let it burn-----would be easier to just prepare it and keep it in the ice box til you need it.

secret told me me by others...let it turn it's darkest black/brown OFF THE FIRE..... so just about when you think your roux is good, take it off the flame about 1 1/2 -2 minutes while continuing to whisk...add onions and garlic...refrigerate
