Can you use self rising flour when making a roux?
Normally not. Bread flour is does not contain chemical leavening agents, whereas self raising flour does. (So you'd be adding in additional raising agents which will probably mess up the end result). Also, self raising flour has a lower protein and gluten content, when compared to bread flour; this means that if you were to make bread with self raising flour, it would be prone to collapsing and is likely to remain undderisen/crumbly.
