And it turned out glorious!

Intrigued.

Think I heard about this once on YouTube..

Post recipe!

-Equal parts flour/oil, whisk.
-5 minutes in microwave, take out and whisk (bowl is hot!).
-2 more minutes, then take out and whisk.
-1 more minute, then whisk again (bowl is very hot!)
-Now, at this point you should have a blonde roux. From here microwave in minute increments to your desired color.

I tossed in my trinity at "milk chocolate" and voil! Dark chocolate roux. Whole process took about 20 minutes for 3:3 ratio.

There's a method for oven-roux that ATK has as well.

Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.

Making roux correctly is quite simple.

Yea, I don't need to go involving the microwave in this.

I agree...making a roux is beer drinking time

Agree....just be careful not to drink too many beers and end up with roofing tar.
