Gumbo Starter Roux Base- For Chef's and Foodservice Operators

A consistent foundation. Your signature gumbo.

Our signature Gumbo Starter Roux Base helps commercial kitchens simplify preparation while keeping chefs in control of the finished dish. Handcrafted in small batches and already browned and seasoned, this dry roux base delivers rich flavor without the hours of preparing a roux from scratch.

Build seafood, chicken and sausage, vegetarian, or fusion recipes around your menu. You choose the ingredients, portion sizes, and presentation, with a repeatable foundation your team can work from.

Build your recipe. Understand your costs.
Use our custom Profitability Calculator to explore ingredient choices, evaluate recipe costs, and plan menu pricing around your target margin.

Built for volume.
Each 8-pack case provides the foundation for more than 100 servings, with a roux-base cost under $2 per serving, depending on prepared yield and portion size. Additional ingredients, labor, and operating costs are separate.

Easy handling and storage.
An 18-month shelf life, when stored in a cool, dry place, supports inventory planning and keeps a versatile menu foundation within reach.

Please note: This is a fully seasoned concentrate. Prepare with unsalted or low-sodium broth, and taste before adding salt or additional seasoning.
