With exception of using bacon fat I'm with you in cooking popcorn I dislike microwaved / jiffy pop tin stuff. People laugh at me cos I do it on the stove but I notice they eat my popcorn Walt Lewis > wrote in : > I pop popcorn in it the old fashioned way.

In small pyrex bowl mix equal parts flour and extra virgin olive oil[2-10 or so TB flour to 2-10 or so TB EVOO]. In general for a medium sauce you need roux containing 1.5 TB of flour per cup of stock for a medium thickness sauce. Mix thoroughly with small spoon, or whatever. Microwave on power level 3 for 3 minutes and 33 seconds. Mix again thoroughly. At that point you have a good white roux. You can make a brown roux by cooking longer. I've come to the conclusion that most of the time it's not worth the effort for brown sauces. You basically don't want raw flour in what you're making and you want it to emulsify and create a smooth sauce. I will sometimes microwave the roux twice if I'm making a brown sauce. For something like red eye gravy once is plenty. With red eye, very small amount of roux will tie everything together. Couple of points: Olive oil works much better than the traditional butter. Butter has an aqueous, or water fraction that messes everything up. You can clarify butter, but that's too much work for me, and even that doesn't work as well as EVOO. The EVOO results in a very smooth sauce. Use the number 3 power level setting. Oil absorbs microwave energy much more than anything water based. The 3 power level works best always. On the stove you can use less than a 1:1 flour/oil ratio. In the microwave you can't. The roux doesn't mix while heating and things don't work out quite right. Always make at least twice as much roux as you are going to use. Save the rest in the frig. It's there when you need it. Kent |

Even tho' I cannot eat wheat flour any more, I will use it to cook for others, then just prepare something else for myself. Thanks! I'm not opposed to using pre-prepared stuff even sometimes commercial preps. I've recently been enjoying an Indian Ginger/Garlic paste from the India spice section at Fiesta. -- Peace!

Corn starch, rice flour, potato starch, arrowroot, etc. I do and I mentioned it in an earlier post dear. :-) I most often use Arrowroot or Corn Starch. I especially like the texture of Arrowroot. I have rice flour on hand and use it for dredging and find it gives a MUCH crispier result than wheat flour. Corn starch is even better tho' for that application. I'm working on a rice flour tortilla. It's just that alternatives cannot be called "roux" by definition, and I know how picky internet cooks are. <g> -- Peace!

Depends on what I am cooking... Roux with wheat flour really does work best for dishes such as SOS and Gumbo, and Red Eye Gravy. <g> It's a flavor thing for the individual I may be cooking for. I use Corn starch or Arrow Root 100% of the time for soups and sauces. To some people, the texture is too slick. It really is not the same. -- Peace!

I got hungry last week for some green bean soup like mom used to make. I settle on a recipe from the internet. It finally says to make that ru stuff. I was going to do it, then somebody else stepped in. Not sure whats its supposed to look like. Anyway the soup was fantastic. Here is the recipe. http://www.pitt.edu/~szekeres/green%20bean.htm |

i bought a couple of bags, but it is like trying to buy gold around here,
not many places carry it and another net friend indicated she made her own, so i tried it, now i am rarely without at least brown rice, sometimes white... but since doing this i no longer buy it at all, and i just use whatever container of rice i currently have in the cabinet...

You might also try this: Thai Khao Koor: Get a medium sized wok fairly hot, and add a couple of tablespoons of uncooked jasmine rice (or whatever). Adding some bai makruet (Kaffir lime leaf) and lemongrass will make it even more aromatic. Keep in movement until the rice starts to turn golden brown. Remove from the heat and allow to cool. Grind to a fairly coarse powder in a spice mill, or a mortar and pestle, or a pepper mill or a good clean coffee grinder (all of these work well but keep in mind that a coffee grinder tends to grind too fine--the powder should retain some "texture"). -- Nick, KI6VAV.
