Instructions
- In a large sauté pan melt 4 ounces (1 stick) butter and mix in flour until incorporated. Cook on low flame until it starts to look like wet sand and gives off a nutty smell. Remove from heat and save. This is your roux.
- In a large sauté pan add South Shore Seasoning and place on high heat. Stir seasoning for about 2 minutes until it is lightly toasted and fragrant. Remove from heat and save.
- In a large stock pot melt remaining 4 ounces (1 stick) butter and add onions. Sauté onions until translucent, then add celery and red peppers. Sauté for 1 minute and fold in the roux, toasted South Shore Seasoning, and sugar. Heat for 1 minute then add white wine. Stir and mix ingredients together, starting to dissolve roux.
