With horror many cooks read the words "first make a roux". Here is a method to take the fear of making a roux away. The recipe is taken from "Quelque Chose Piquante" a Cajun cookbook from Baton Rouge, LA first published in 1966.

1 pint (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 quart flour
1 pint cooking oil

Directions

1
Thoroughly mix together the flour and the oil in a heavy Dutch oven.
2
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F and place the Dutch oven on the center shelf of the preheated oven.
3
Bake for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or a bit longer if you will have a very dark roux, stirring the mixture about every 15 minutes.
4
When it is cool, store in jars in the refrigerator for future use.
