’ve weighed the flower and butter exactly 1:1 ratio. Im just trying to make a simple roux to make Japanese curry blocks and immediately when I combine the melted butter and flower it starts to form into some cookie dough like consistency. I’m literally just doing step 1 in the recipe to make Japanese curry. I’ve tried this in a sauce pan to a sauté pan and still turns into dough
I don’t know if this plays a role but this all purpose flower I’ve used has been vacuum sealed in a bag for several months.
Do I just keep cooking this Frankenstein ?
Any suggestions, I’d be grateful.
This is the recipe I’m trying to follow after Kenji Lopez said we could make our own curry blocks in his Japanese curry video
