bruh, that competitive cheer crap aint no joke. My niece was in that stuff and the amount of money they had to pay for an outfit that I could have gotten from a novelty store for $15 was enough to send you into a rage. My wife made one reference to that and I was like no way no how will she EVER be in that crap. That isn't even bringing into account the lunatic moms that are out there in that stuff. No thanks. They wouldn't like me very much.
Well didn't she run off and marry a gump? I think that would have been the 1st clue. The "VERY Texas" comment just means she has been indoctrinated into the way they do things down there which isn't entirely a bad thing. I get what you are saying though and I agree. I bet she doesn't know how to make a roux anymore either even though the one in the jar is just as good.
Well....if we're being honest....it makes us laugh. It seems to me, at least out here, there are "cheer" people and "athlete" people and they don't mix. I'm sure it's not fair but the cheerleaders are sluts and are pretend procreating with the football team. They are also fake as hell and if they wore sandals all the time, you'd be able to watch their toes curl and wiggle when they try to have a conversation. But I'm sure they like their sparkly little barstool. Y'all need to get this shit straightened out. @tirk says the jar is just fine. Cajunlost might go to jail in defense of legit roux. I've made it twice...no jar....not bad.
As do I, it is flour and oil, if someone else is going to do that crap for me then let them have at it. The jar is indistingquishable from anything some poor sap slaved over a hot stove for an hour stirring and hoping he doesn't burn it. Screw that. Gumbo does not get its falvor from the roux, that is only a thickener and a color addative. Anyone that tells you different just doesn't know how to cook.
There is no love put into a fucking jar. Some mesican hit a button and there is your GD roux. The poor sap that slaved over a hot stove did so because he CARES about the final outcome and the recipients take on the effort. Anybody use that powdered instant roux? Just add water and stir?? Fucking choke yourself... Right here is how I know your opinion is as meaningless as the powdered roux. A properly cared for roux affects the flavor dramatically, but you wouldn't know because you are conditioned to that lackluster shit from a jar. You might as well sprinkle that powdered crap over chicken soup and call it a day.
so i guess when you burn a roux and it ruins your entire pot is only when it matters. otherwise its all the same. you better turn in your coonass card asap. you have listened to the wrong person somewhere along the line.
