We took the Roux class on 1/18/25 with Chef Raymond, and we had a blast. I learned sooooo much and Chef was kind, encouraging and patient with all of us. I truly feel like I can make Shrimp Etouffee and Gumbo now that I'm' home. I don't like super spicy foods, and Chef adjusted the heat level for me. It was still very flavorful without burning up your taste buds. Some other students added hot sauce to their individual servings. I highly recommend this class.
