The art of combining fresh herbs, robust spices, and high-quality proteins transforms naturally gluten-free ingredients into vibrant, hearty meals that satisfy both the palate and the soul. From perfectly seasoned jambalaya to crispy fried catfish made with gluten-free coatings, each dish is a celebration of tradition and innovation, proving that gluten-free can be just as rich and satisfying as its classic counterparts.

This roux is crafted using a blend of cottonseed oil, chickpea flour, and rice flour to achieve a balanced texture and flavor. Cottonseed oil provides a neutral, light base with a high smoke point, ensuring the roux cooks evenly without burning. Chickpea flour adds a subtle nutty taste and enhances the protein content, contributing to a richer mouthfeel. Rice flour helps create a smooth consistency and lends a delicate, slightly sweet flavor while acting as a fine thickening agent. Together, these ingredients combine to form a roux that is both versatile and well-suited for a variety of dishes.
