| 1 cup | 62g / 2.2oz | Flour |
| 1 cup | 237ml | Vegetable oil |
In a black cast-iron skillet, heat the oil over medium high heat until it registers approximately 300 degrees on a deep-fat-fryer thermometer. Using a wire whisk, slowly add the flour, stirring constantly until the roux is nutty colored. At this point, the roux is ideal for thickening a light seafood gumbo. Continue to cook this roux over medium heat and you will begin to see it change in color, getting darker and more aromatic. Make sure you constantly stir it so it doesn't burn.
