ROUX FOR SAUCES
|
Roux is necessary to thicken
and give body to sauces. Put one tablespoon of flour and one of butter
into a saucepan and cook until the flour has lost any raw taste. Remove
the saucepan from the stove and add slowly the stock or milk, one cup for
every tablespoon of butter or flour, reduce heat and cook, stirring constantly
until smooth.
For white sauces take care the
flour does not color; for dark sauces let it brown, but take care it does
not burn. |
