Can’t really give it a fair review as I’ve not tried other prepared roux brands. I have however, made quite a lot of roux from scratch. Savoie's dark roux is a very good second, perhaps better! Quick, easy and convenient. Gone through several jars I ordered online and even had a local grocer order some. Many gallons of gumbo later and I’m a happy boy! Honestly, I’ll have to try some of the other brands but you can’t go wrong with this tasty time saver.

Living in Texas this product takes me back to the bayou in Port Barre. I love it as it is not greasy like some others I have tried. Takes awhile to dissolve, but that is the process. Even better, for families that didn't grow up with Cajun grandparents and have no clue what goes in gumbo, there are instructions and ingredients needed listed right on the jar.

This was the 5th time I order Savoie's Old Fashiond Roux. It's a great product that helps making gumbo and other Cajun delicacies a breeze. The website is intuitive and easy to use. Delivery time was good, and my 6 glass jars of roux were securely packaged and reached me here in Texas in perfect condition.
