I make my mac and cheese with a bechemel sauce ditto broccoli cheddar cheese soup
Conseula - send you resume to Erin - when the job description comes out, have her update it - send it back to you and then you can do the rest.
You don't have to have her do anything if it isn't needed , but you will have a back up plan.
I like having a Plan B
(The foodie pedant in me also needs to point out that the kind of roux you make for gumbo is very different than the kind you make for, say, a bechamel, and that the flavor of the cooked flour is pretty key. If all you need is thickening, there are a thousand other options out there. But for gumbo, the roux is more than just starch.)
Ooh, that's a kitchen gadget I don't have. I might need one of those. How many whisks is too many?
Jessica, isn't the difference between a gumbo roux and roux-turned-bechamel-turned-mornay really just the amount of time it is cooked and how dark it gets? So, the type of flour would be secondary to the amount of time. I do think you could use something other than wheat.
My dinner was dal, jasmine rice, and garlic naan.
My dinner was a potato chip dipped in spinach artichoke sauce (I still maintain I don't know what artichokes taste like, other than the stuff that goes between food), a roll, and half a decent Grey Goose gimlet straight up (not as good as Rocksugar--we spent some time rhapsodising about that restaurant, and apparently I might try working a connection next time I go. Watch me fail spectacularly),
And now, juice.
Reporting in--today was awesome. Juliana and I had a mani/pedi, then we got dressed up and went to city hall for the license, then we had a ceremony, and then we had an awesome meal and lots of booze. Juliana and Martin have awesome friends, and they all laughed at the Princess bride part of the ceremony.
YAY, Lee! The pic on FB that I saw was adorable.
My dinner was a fuckload of red wine (until I cut myself off for gut preservation, it hates tannins) and raw green beans and spinach kale dip and cheese. And guac and chips. Gut, bedamned. Maybe tomorrow I won't wake up with indigestion. Hopefully laughing until you cry helps that? My friends-who-are-also-neighbors are wunnerful. Now I just need to finish keying down.
Hey, font people, have you seen this: [link]
