How to Make a Roux

🧂 Ingredients

• 100 gr unsalted butter

Instructions

• 1 Melt the butter in a saucepan over a medium heat.
• 2 Whisk the flour into the melted butter and cook for at least 3 minutes to obtain
  a white roux.
• 3 To get a blond roux cook the white roux for 3 minutes until the flour loses its
  raw flavour and the colour is light brown.

  a golden brown colour.
• 5 Use the roux right away as a thickening agent or store in the refrigerator in an
