We lived in south Louisiana for over 40 years until
recently. The food is fabulous there. We went to a home expo many years ago and Enola Prudhomme was doing a demo on “dry roux” to make it healthier. Mr stitchnripper was intrigued and made it to use in his gumbo. He isn’t from the south and isn’t really a cook but he does make nice gumbo. There’s a Cajun meat market here so we can get what he needs. They also sell jars of dry roux. It does have a nice taste.
