Ingredients

2 cups flour

Directions

Put the flour in a large shallow pan.

Bake at 170 -200 F (lowest heat on your oven) for a couple of hours - doesn't really matter if it is 2 hours or 5.

The flour will become slightly tan or off-white. That is what you want.

Use a tablespoon or two in your next gravy instead of plain flour. It adds a slightly nutty taste and removes the danger of an undercooked gravy.

You can use this flour for just about anything you would use flour.

Interesting! I don't make a lot of gravy, but this sounds good, and I'll give it a try some time.

I have done this in the microwave for making roux to use in gumbo. I will have to try it in the oven because you have to be very careful not to burn the flour in the microwave. Thanks for a great post.
