This message was posted 13 years ago, and I bet they talked it before I
came along. I cooked roux this way when I was on a low fat diet, but I
only did that a couple of times.

Another way to make a fat free roux is to brown the flour using your
oven. Careful trying this if your oven is convection (Yikes!). You
can stir periodically, but it does not require constant stirring, like
it does over direct heat.
