Oven roux (no oil) gumbo

Chicken and andouille (Jacobs)
I like my roux dark so I keep it in the oven a tad longer
Roux today is equal parts of oven roux and water. I sometimes use chicken stock

Made a gumbo this morning too, but with a traditional roux. Have any tips/directions for an oven roux?

Looks good
Preheat oven to 400 degrees and stir every 15 mins if needed and keep and eye on it. I usually go about an hour.
This last batch I used a glass container and really did not need to stir much.

I use Bobs Red Mill gluten free flour for my roux. It seems to give a better flavor. Stir often and open up kitchen to air. Your smoke alarms will have a hard time.

Any reason you don't use oil after toasting? What's the difference in taste?

little healthier with no oil and I think the flavor is not discernable.
Also, the dry roux is easy to store away and it's so easy the next time around to make the roux.
I don't see anyone posting this and thought it might be helpful to some.

Fascinating. I wonder how it would come out if smoked in a pellet grill or BGE.

On topic, how long did you have the roux in the oven?

the le creuset? of course.
on topic
just under an hour, but I know most don't like roux that dark and prob a medium brown is about 35-40 mins

I’m confused. You just toasted raw flour in the oven and then added it to trinity and meat and stock without ever adding a fat source?

Wild. I've never seen this before. Thanks for sharing. May give this a try this gumbo season.
Do you follow her ratio of liquid to dry roux? The pictures look a little watery. I prefer my gumbo thickness on the stew side.
