Savoies Light Roux 16oz

Savoie's Light Roux 16oz is a ready-to-use Louisiana roux cooked to a lighter golden color for dishes that need smooth body, subtle nutty flavor, and authentic Cajun richness without the deeper flavor of dark roux. Use it as the foundation for chicken and sausage gumbo, seafood étouffée, bisques, stews, gravies, soups, and sauces when starting roux from scratch sounds like a smoky kitchen punishment nobody requested.

This light roux is especially useful for recipes that call for a milder flavor and lighter color, including seafood étouffée, shrimp stew, chicken gumbo, bisques, and creamier Cajun-style dishes. Pour off any settled oil, scoop the desired amount into your pot, and for best results dissolve the roux in a small amount of cold water or broth before adding it to simmering recipes.
