How to make a roux from scratch for any dish isn’t as easy as the ones that come in a box or a package – one simple step to add water and voila – you’re done! There’s a lot of mixing, adding, stirring and perfecting depending on the meal you are making.

A roux, or sauce, can be make at home. There are probably many ways of making them, but I have perfected my own way, and I guarantee it’s easy for anyone to do with practice and dedication.

That is why at the end of this blog post I have given you a video tutorial on just how easy making a roux is, with practice of course. I know I’m a visual learner, so I hope the video benefits you just as much for your dish.

Use this for Chicken Marsala, Alfredo, Asian, Thai and any other inspired dishes using a sauce. The possibilities are endless, and a homemade roux is so much better for you than what you buy in the jar or package.
