You sound much like one of my ex’s. Great cajun cook, I learned a lot of great things from her, she never did share her gumbo recipe with me however. I cheat however and make my dark roux in the oven rather than the stove top.

I use the Paul Prudhomme ‘Cajun Napalm’ method, where you heat the oil till it smokes, add the flour and cook over a really high heat whisking like mad until you get too scared, then dump in half the chopped Trinity and garlic.

Seriously, I stop it when I start being afraid it’s going to ignite.
