Blogathon 3

19 Nov, 2023

Hour 3! It's time for me to cook lunch. For the occasion let me share with you my 100% full-proof technique to make good fucking sauces, aka how to make a roux.

You'll need:

  • Flour
  • Butter
  • A broth of some kind. Personally I use pasta water.

    Step 1: melt some butter. By "some" I mean like. A spoonful. Really not much.

    Step 2: add some flour.

    Step 3: pour some broth in it. The sauce is gonna start thickening and spreading. Stop whenever it's liquid enough for your tastes.

    Optional step 4: if you used pasta water, or any sort of broth that doesn't have any taste in it, now's the time to add whatever spices you like. I like to add lemon + some sugar, but it can be anything really.

    Bam. Instant sauce. Tasty as hell. 10/10.
