Directions:
- On a half sheet pan (one of those big commercial style cookie sheets with a rim, like a big jelly roll pan) spread an entire 5-pound bag of plain unbleached all-purpose flour.
- Put it in the oven at 350 degrees. Every half hour or so, stir it up with a spatula. It takes at least 1 1/2 to 2 hours to toast. Be patient.
- Test it by taking some out and stirring it into some water or oil. It should turn a nice nutty, pecan-shell ( or peanut butter) brown. Keep roasting it until it's the color you like. (When you use it, you can always make it darker, but you can't make it lighter!).
- To use: Saute vegetables in oil/butter/bacon drippings and then sprinkle the roux powder on them. Mix until it's well blended and thoroughly wet. Proceed with the rest of your gumbo recipe.
- Store the powder in a tightly sealed jar. It seems to store indefinitely.
