Ingredients
- 1 Cup Vegetable Oil

Instructions
- Add the vegetable oil to the bottom of a heavy bottomed pot - like a Dutch Oven. Apply low-medium heat.
- Add the flour and stir in until well combined, using a suitable spoon.
- Stir, somewhat intermittently, until the roux has become a very dark brown in color, like dark Hershey Chocolate.
- Continue with the steps from whatever recipe you are making.
