Roux sauce helps thicken anything that it is added to. Watery mushroom soup isn't as appealing as it would be a thick, hearty soup.
A roux is a mixture of equal quantities of butter and plain flour blended together. Small dollops can then be dropped into hot liquids (including tomatoe sauce). Stir till the liquid boils and thickens. More roux can be added at any time
Roux consists of butter and flour heated in a fry pan. As the water in the butter is driven off by the the heat the mixture will thicken and start to turn brown. The longer you cook it the darker and thicker it will become.
The lumps would just be wasted thickener, and lumps are not to happen in the first place. What you do is in a separate bowl, pour some of the sauce in that bowl and mix with all ingredients you use in a roux. When that mixture is completely mixed, you then add it to the main sauce mixture and there will be no lumps if you stir it enough.
How much roux is needed to thicken potato soup in a dutch oven depends on how much soup you are making. The general rule is 3 ounces of roux for 1 quart of soup.
Is called a bechamel sauce or a roux.
A roux is exactly what you have described equal parts of either oil, butter, or even fat drippings mixed with flour heated over a low medium heat it is the base for many brown or white sauces and gravy. Also can be used to thicken a sauce or gravy. As the flour heats it gets thicker adding water will thin the sauce or gravy until it cools. When it cools it will thicken slightly. A roux is at its simplest flour cooked (i.e. fried) in any fat or oil, it is used as a base or thickener in many sauces or soups. As it cooks the flour turns color from white, to tan, to brown, to black depending on cooking time and intensity of flavor desired. Preparing a good black roux is very tricky as its very easy to burn, producing an unpleasant scorched flavor, but a few dishes (e.g. some Cajun recipes) require black roux.

Actually, a roux is not a sauce, but is the base for several different sauces and is used as a thickener in many dishes. A roux is made by combining equal parts of fat and starch (usually butter or lard and flour) and cooking it in a pan until the flour taste has been cooked out. The color of a roux depends upon the amount of time you cook it - and the darker the roux, the more flavor it imparts to the dish you are using it in. By adding milk to a roux you are making a bechamel sauce which is used in many lasagna recipes and other dishes. Bechamel sauce is also the base sauce for several other culinary sauces: Mornay sauce (cheese sauce), Mustard sauce, and Sauce Soubise (contains finely chopped onions that are sweated in butter before adding to the sauce) are a few of these.
Hellofirstly a roux is a thickening agent. So you would use a roux to thicken 5L of liquid (water or milk etc..).For instance, to make 5L of a white sauce (Bechamel) you would need 5L of milk and 800g of roux.Roux = 400g of flour400g of butter (or marg)mix and cook till it changes to blonde turning and stirring.Dont allow to burn and use to thicken the milk or (your liquid)Cheers-J-
This is a very simple roux sauce. Roux typically consists of heated milk, with flour, cheese, and seasonings whisked in. If you do not constantly stir this, it will scorch the sauce at the bottom of the pot or pan very easily.
Roux is basically an emulsive agent -- butter adds the fat.
