What considerations must be made when incorporating a roux and a liquid?
The liquid may be added to the roux or the roux may be added to the liquid. You do not want the liquid to be very cold or it will solidify the fat in the roux. The roux may be warm or cold, but not extremely hot (sizzling). Combining hot roux and hot liquid will cause spattering and possible lumps. If the roux is hot, the liquid should be warm or cool. If the roux is cold, the liquid must be warm, which makes blending easier and avoids a granular texture. Add the liquid to the roux slowly, in stages, stirring constantly with a whisk between additions to ensure a lump-free preparation. The thickness of the liquid will not be fully realized until it has returned to the boiling point and the starch has completely gelatinized.

Explain how to avoid creating lumps when mixing a roux and a liquid base together?
If you're using cornstarch or flour, you want to add it to cold liquid and dissolve it thoroughly, before adding it to your hot liquid, to avoid lumps. Be sure to whisk it quickly, as you're adding the cold liquid into the hot.

How is roux combined with a liquid to form a sauce?
Roux is made by combining equal parts of butter and flour, and cooking it. The butter should be melted in a skillet, and then the flour stirred in. You should constantly stir, so it doesn't stick and start to scorch. Depending on the type of soup, you cook the Roux different lengths of time. For instance, if it is a lighter color soup, you will want a Blonde Roux, which means you cook it over the heat until is is blended well, but not brown. A Medium Roux would be for a medium-colored soup, and is cooked in the skillet until a light brown color is achieved. For a Dark Roux, you will cook it until it is pretty dark--but not burned. They key to adding Roux to a soup is, if the soup is COLD, the Roux should be HOT when whisked in. If the soup is HOT, then the Roux should be added COLD (after cooking the Roux, place in the refrigerator until completely chilled). If you add HOT Roux to a HOT soup, it will NOT thicken it, and vice versa. If you are wanting to add it to the actual soup base, before other ingredients are added, you will get your soup stock hot, then whisk in the cold Roux, then add your other ingredients. Not only will the Roux thicken the dish, but it will also add a lot of flavor.
How many types of roux is there?
White roux -is cooked only briefly and should be removed from the heat as soon as it develops a frothy, bubbly appearance. It is used in white sauces, such as béchamel, or in dishes where little or no color is desired Blond roux -is cooked slightly longer than white roux, and should begin to take on a little colors as the flour caramelizes. It is used in ivory-colored, such as véloute, or where a richer flavor is desired. Brown roux -is cooked until it develops a darker color and nutty aroma and flavor. Brown roux is used in brown sauces and dishes where a darker color is desired. It is important to remember that cooking a starch before adding a liquid breaks down the starch granules and prevents gelatinization from occurring. Therefore, because brown roux is cooked longer than white roux, more brown roux s required to thicken a given quantity of liquid.
