That's a great idea!!! I will put it on my to do list. Thsnks for watching and the suggestion 😊😊👍👍👌👌
Your instructions are fantastic. I was raised by a self-taught gourmet mom that lived to watch Julia Childs almost daily. I was taught as a young man growing up that anyone can cook meat and vegetables, but not everyone can make a sauce. She told me to have everything I needed to make sauces and gravies in the pantry and to shop daily for the fresh meats and stuff. Your instructions have been so helpful. You not only talk about the how but the why. Thank you
Thank you so much!!! Being a graduate of Le Cordon Bleu Paris your comment means a lot 😊😊 I really love sharing these recipes and techniques . I hope that they help bring a little special deliciousness to dishes/meals/desserts 👍👍 Thank you for watching 😊😊
Thank you so much for elaborating about each step! No other person cared to mention the two hot liquids lead to lumps! I just tried to make a sauce from beef stock and I threw it 2 times because it lumped up, 3rd time is the charm with this info!
Another tip, when you mix the stock with the roux make sure that the roux isn’t very hot! Really important
Excellent video!!!
I like the approximate measures for thin, medium, and thick sauces. As a footnote; however, we should keep in mind the longer a roux is cooked, the less thickening power it has. I.e. a white or blond roux will thicken better than a dark roux.
I keep a cooked roux on hand to ensure sauces come out the way I want. Make the roux, measure it into cupcake tins lined with parchment (2 Tbsp each) and then freeze it. The “roux pucks” stack nicely in a freezer bag. If my sauce looks too thin, I add a puck of cooked roux (cold roux + hot liquid).
Awesome tips 👌 thanks for sharing 👍
thank you....great tutorial... (and thanks for not adding a distracting second drum/music track)!!
I’m on my journey to learn about flavor building and you don’t know how exciting I was about your channel! A great sauce/gravy can change a bland meal into memorable experience
My aunts made gravy and I always worried about lumps....but after all this explanation....I think I will be brave and try it. Thanks!!!!
Johnny Mac, watching your channel saved my business
Wow!!! That's so great to hear!!!! When I started doing these videos my main goal was to help people learn how to make different sauces and gravies. After doing this for a little over year I have found that these videos help out way more than I anticipated. Thank you so much for watching and sharing your experience 😊😊👌👌👍👍
Johnny, I am not sure where you reside, but I have something I want to discuss with you.
@@magneticmoneymore shoot me an email and I would be happy to help - thesauceandgravychannel@gmail.com
This is such a clear tutorial ... you can clearly see exactly how the sauce looks at every stage and you give all weights and measures in different formats for us all to understand. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing your knowleadge
Hi Johnny Mac! Thank you for this well-presented technique videos. I used to be so scared of making sauces. Now, I feel a lot more comfortable after watching your channel. I love how you we can easily follow your step-by-step process and I love how you explain everything you do and why you do it. Can't wait for more! 👍👍👍
Thank you so much!! I am happy that you find this technique video helpful. To help with your sauce making - I plan on doing more technique videos. Please let me know if there are any techniques that you may be interested in learning more about👍😊👍
Johnny Mac!!!! It's great to SEE you 😀. This was a fantastic Roux tutorial and a great tip for lump free results! Take care up there my friend and have a wonderful weekend!!!
Thanks Patrick!!! Yes, after a year or so I decided it was time to make a small appearance.
This rechnique is better than gradular adding the liquid, came out smooth, was skeptical!
I was told by a chef that if you don't cook the flour in the rue long enough it will have a pasty taste in your gravies? Is that true?
If you are working at a high-end Michelin star restaurant you may want to cook the roux and even the sauce down for an extended time to remove any hint of a flour taste. You would hate to lose that Michelin star. For most people, cooking the roux for a few minutes will be enough to take care of the flour taste.
Just discovered your channel and subscribed. Love it! Keep ‘em coming!
Thanks for your support!! More sauces and gravies to come 👍👍

How do you reconstitute leftover roux. Do you have to leave it out at room temperarure before adding hot liquid to it, or is it ok straight out if the fridge.?
You can use it straight out of the fridge. You can even portion the roux out in an ice cube tray or pucks on parchment paper and freeze it. To use it just drop frozen roux cubes into a boiling stock.
Thanks a lot you sir, love your channel wich i discovered just today! 💜
I am happy you found the channel 😊😊 Thanks for watching 👍👍
I've never used roux except when making béchamel sauce. I'm thinking of using one to thicken a sauce for a steak; would that be appropriate? Since I'm a newbie, perhaps someone could review the process I am thinking of:
After slow cooking the steak in the oven, I want to reverse sear it in a cast iron skillet. I am thinking of adding spring of thyme, a spring of rosemary, a challot, and a couple of cloves of garlic together with unsalted butter to baste the steak with. Then, I'm thinking of taking the steak out to rest and then deglazing with red wine, adding some vegetable stock that I've made (just your standard mirepoix with a bouquet garni). After reducing it for maybe 10--15 minutes and letting it cool, I'll make a blond roux and gradually whisk in my sauce into the hot roux, then add salt and pepper, and finally strain it.
Does that sound like a reasonable plan? If not, what would you change?
Thanks for watching. I haven't tired a béchamel style sauce with a steak. Your plan sounds reasonable. There are no right or wrong ways to make a sauce - only the tasty way. So, if you end up making it and liking the way it pairs with the steak - that's prefect. The only way to know is to give it a shot.
If you do try it out I would quickly sear the steak first and basted with your thyme, rosemary shallot and garlic. Then, if needed, finish the steak off in the oven. While the steak rest - deglaze and proceed as you stated in your comment.
Here are a few recipes I would recommend with a steak:

Thank you....more info more sauces! Can almond flour be used?
Hello my friend. Yes almond flour or even rice flour could be used. Have a nice weekend 😊😊👍👍
What if I dont have chicken brot?
Just curious. Can flour be dissolve/mix in oil/butter before cooking? To avoid those lumps
Yes, here is a beurre manie recipe - mixing butter and flour to thicken a sauce:

To make a lump free sauce every time with a roux - add a cool liquid to a hot roux or a hot liquid to a cool roux. Thanks for watching.

@@thesauceandgravychannel thanks 🙏
What can be added or eaten with this roux foundation sauce
Thanks for watching! There are so many options- any stock, broth or cooking liquid can be added to make a sauce or gravy. It's the base thickening agent for a mac and cheese or scalloped potatoes, a bechamel sauce, a veloute sauce, sos gravy, hamburger gravy, the sausage gravy for biscuits and gravy... the list goes on and on. It's a great versatile thickening agent 😊👍
Great but i do love using the fon.
Curiosity prompts me to ask. I have been using 14.125g=1T for fat. I determined that value because a cube of butter is 113 g / 8 T. So 3 T is about 42 gr but you have 30 g. Will that difference in my calculations make a noticeable difference? Or should I just ensure that my flour and fat weight the same amount regardless of T?
Thanks for watching. Yes, use equal amounts flour and butter if you are using grams to measure.
