Skinny Spices Tip #2 this suggestion is courtsey of Joe Cahn, founder of New Orleans School of Cooking. To make a no-fat thickening agent, sprinkle four on a shallow, non-stick cookie sheet or baking pan and slow-bake in the oven at 325^ fro 1 hour. Use this "roux" to thicken soups and stews by combining with a double amount of cold water, and whisk it smooth or shake in a jar. Slowly whisk this mixture into a simmering soup or stew, it will thicken once it reaches 180^.
